Standard Sealcoating restored this long residential drive in Hopkinton with a multi-step process that combined hot rubber crack filling and premium Residential Sealcoating. The crew began by power-cleaning the pavement and routing dozens of open fissures visible in the “before” photo, then injected a heated, rubberized sealant that bonds to the asphalt and flexes with temperature changes. Once the repaired joints cooled, the surface was blown free of dust, edged for crisp lines, and treated with a coal-tar-free sealer that soaked into the still-porous asphalt. The “after” image shows the transformation: faded gray and vegetation-filled cracks replaced by a smooth, jet-black finish that locks out moisture, oil, and winter salt. This project underscores how thorough crack preparation paired with a high-quality sealcoat extends pavement life and showcases the craftsmanship homeowners expect from Standard Sealcoating.
