Sealcoat and Asphalt In Knollwood Village (Santa Maria)

Sealcoating and Pavement Striping Project at Knollwood Village in Santa Maria, CA

Asphalt needs regular maintenance to maximize its lifespan, and sealcoating is key to maintaining it. Sealcoating applies a liquid coating that gives asphalt a protective seal to help prolong its lifespan and maintain a smooth pavement. Knollwood Village in Santa Maria, CA, needed GPM, trusted asphalt contractors, to complete a sealcoating and restriping project in a 223,480-square-foot residential area.

GPM first swept the asphalt surface and moved any vegetation and oil spots as needed. Two layers of sealcoating were applied over three separate phases  to ensure full coverage. Once the sealcoating was completed, we used traffic paint to restripe the streets. The finishing touch was adding reflective beads to the pavement to improve the visibility of the stripes at night. As you can see in the before and after photos, the sealcoating and striping services transformed the asphalt surface, making it look new again and enhancing overall access and safety throughout the community.

FAQ’s

What is sealcoating, and why is it important for asphalt surfaces?

Sealcoating is a protective liquid coating applied to asphalt pavement to shield it from damage caused by water, sunlight, oil, and daily wear and tear. Regular sealcoating not only extends the lifespan of your asphalt surface but also improves its appearance, making it look new again. Whether it’s a residential community near Knollwood Village off S. College Drive or a business close to Broadway and Main Street, this service is essential for keeping pavement in top condition across Santa Maria.

How often should sealcoating be done for residential or business properties?

Most contractors recommend sealcoating asphalt every 2-4 years, depending on traffic levels and weather conditions. Regular maintenance helps preserve the base installation, minimizes costly repairs, and keeps your pavement strong and durable.

What is the difference between sealcoating and asphalt resurfacing?

Sealcoating is a maintenance service designed to protect and refresh existing pavement, while resurfacing involves applying a new layer of asphalt over the current surface to repair more significant damage. Sealcoating is preventative, whereas resurfacing is corrective.

What steps are involved in a sealcoating and striping project?

A typical project begins with cleaning the pavement surface and removing debris, vegetation, and oil spots. Next, contractors apply one or more layers of sealcoating in phases. After curing, striping services are performed using high-quality traffic paint, and reflective beads are added for better visibility and access, an important detail for streets near Santa Maria High School or within large residential communities like Knollwood Village.

Can sealcoating and striping be customized for my business or HOA property?

Yes. Professional pavement contractors like GPM tailor services to meet the specific needs of commercial properties, HOAs, and industrial sites. This includes custom striping layouts, ADA-compliant markings, and scheduling work in phases to minimize disruptions to property access.

How does proper base installation affect pavement performance?

A well-prepared base is essential for the longevity and strength of any asphalt surface. Without a stable base installation, the pavement is more likely to develop cracks and other structural issues. Sealcoating helps protect this base by preventing water and oil from penetrating the asphalt, something that matters in high-traffic areas like Skyway Drive near the Santa Maria Airport.
