Sealcoating vs Resurfacing — What Does Your Harrison Township Driveway Need?

Sealcoating vs Resurfacing in Harrison Township

Not sure if your driveway needs sealcoating or resurfacing? In Harrison Township, NJ, the answer depends on your driveway's current condition. Sealcoating ($0.15 to $0.30 per square foot) is ideal for driveways in good structural condition that show minor surface wear, oxidation, or fading. Resurfacing ($2 to $4 per square foot) is for driveways with widespread cracking, rough texture, or surface deterioration where the base is still solid.

How to Tell Which You Need

If your driveway has only hairline cracks and surface oxidation, sealcoating protects the surface and gives it a fresh, dark appearance. If you see alligator cracking, widespread crazing, or rough spots but the driveway does not settle or move underfoot, resurfacing with a new asphalt overlay is the right choice. If the driveway is sinking, heaving, or has base failure, you likely need full replacement rather than either option.
