This video is from like 2012 I believe. It was around the time I first got into sealcoating. My first unit was a AK 110. Quickly out grew it. Still sealing & striping to this day !!!
Wow! Yes, many moons ago..
I think the very LAST thing you'd want to mention as you spray the homeowner's driveway in his presence is how FAST, QUICK, EASY, EFFORTLESS this process is. This may get him to second guess what he's paying you. Further, discussing future profits while you're working on one project suggests you're not all about completing a quality job, but are actually looking past the present project to drum up new leads in the neighborhood, explaining how your agents will canvass other area homeowners to see if anyone wants to get in on a comparably good deal. It might be an idea to rather stress the "commercial grade" quality of the seal coat, comment on the quality of the materials, how many years the owner can expect to get adequate protection, and what kind of warranty against defects the customer can expect, and leave the talk of numbers and profit until after the job is done - when you and your crew can smile and count your profits in the privacy of your truck.
We couldn't agree more. This video is created to provide an understanding that the asphalt maintenance business is a good business to get started with because it's very profitable and can be done quickly and effectively. But, yes great idea regarding on doing another video like this. thank you for the advice.
Think of it this way too, he's paying the company because he doesn't want to mess with it. Yes it's fast but you're paying for a truck a crew plus equipment and insurance on the vehicle, the workers plus in the event something gets damaged. Any homeowner with a leafblower in their garage a $20 floor squeegee and eye for detail can do this. You're paying for the convenience of not having to do it yourself, the professionalism of the job and if they screw up they come back and do it for free, besides a typical homeowner isn't going to spend $60,000 for the truck, the hired crew at $15-$20/hr, 5 to 10 grand for a machine with a tank, 2 grand for a billy goat leafblower or $500 for a backpack just to do their driveway. You're not paying so much for their time as you are for their experience and professionalism and assurance that it will be done right.
@@jhomrich89 you don't need $60,000 for a truck. Could always just carry buckets and get jacked. 💪 Lol
If the homeowner is home they're going to know how fast you finished. A neighbor may even notice how quickly you did it and tell the homeowner, Knowing they may be amazed at how quickly you got the job done. That's not something you're going to be able to really hide. Just pricing your work with the average for that area in mind will get you enough work.
Nice job man. Keep up the good work
Thank you!
This was an absolutely fantastic video, very thorough, audio could have been better but the content is great!
Thank you so very much for your feedback. We appreciate you!
This video came up on my feed and he did such a good job of selling this product I watched the whole thing lol
Thanks for the kind words, brother!
Love it!! The gun is nice I have always wanted to do this just didn't know where to get the best black shiny sealer. What brand is that?
This is a coal tar emulsion. We also sell asphalt emulsion at www.asphaltkingdom.com/supply-store/asphalt-sealer.html
Roger cooll
Great video
Thank you! Appreciate you!
Great video!! I'm new here - can you help me ? What kind of set up is that? (Truck, pressure washer etc) - Very cool!
Hi Andrew, We appreciate the comment. That is a seal coating machine on top of my truck.

I can’t wait to get in the sealing business
Nick's Residential Services excellent! We are always here for you!
Did you ever start your business?
Bro did you start a business??
We charged $125 and that is roughly $.20 per square foot for residential work. Commercial jobs range in price per square foot depending on the total number square feet.
Have you ever heard of a product called Nira ?
We have a minimum or 250 per driveway . Thats the cost to set up break down .... specially if there is an ma10 involved lol... Look you are in a business where people water their material down and give whatever price they want to give it him pour into set yourself apart from everybody else I like get to a well known tattoo artist people will wait in line for a month just to get their appointment with that 1 particular guy. When we go to look at a job or a driveway it's not an interview for whether or not the customer wants to hire us it's a interview for whether or not we want to work on that particular job you have to be careful ....the worst driveway or parking lot can make the best contactors work look like crap.....only take work that will you know u can leave your very best stamp on.... Let's be honest not every driveway or parking lot can be brought back from the dead.... Sometimes you have to tell people that it's past what you are able to do 4. Whether you're eager for the money are not ethnically sometimes you just have to tell them there's nothing you can do....
@@kevinboo2000 We have neyra up here in mass...out of the 3 i think personally its the worst for longevity.... compared to SealMaster and GemSeal.... They have a very high water cut for their milling process as well as a record 4 pounds of sand per gallon! Yikes! They have nice black coaltar but over cutting with water will do that
$.20 per square foot for residential work? Jeez. I'm coming up to your town. With all the competition that waters down their product, you're lucky if you can get $.15 per square foot for residential work in my area.
That's cheap, I'll hire you to do my parking lot!
Love that you mention Canada
Thank you.
@@AsphaltKingdom and your Drummondville office is awesome for me seeing I'm in Montreal
How much dis you charge for this driveway? Also how do you calculate prices? Per sq ft?
Generally $0.20 per square foot for driveways. This driveway was around $150. Yes, we usually quote and charge by the sq ft.
I am always looking forward to seeing your promotional ads.
Thank you! We appreciate you!
If your spraying against a house or a patio or something you don’t want to get overspray on do you usually cover those areas up with anything? Or is the wand that accurate?
Hi Andy, you can use a 1/8 inch sheet of plywood and have one person holding the board and then one person spraying. It requires two people to do neat edging that way or you can invest in our Sealcoat edger and do neat seal coat edging with one person. All you have to do is install it to your spray wand and you can efficiently edge it neatly.
Check it out here:
www.asphaltkingdom.com/sealcoat-edger.html
Andy, just use cardboard. Yes, overspraying can bring you problems and complaints. Always protect people's property. What you're NOT painting is equally important as what you ARE painting.
One time i sprayed sealcoat on vinyl siding. What a headache
How much would it cost to fill a 550 gallon barrel of sealer? Trying to figure out what the profit margins would be but i can’t find an average price anywhere. Or what you would even call it when buying in bulk like that. All i can find is 5 gallon barrels or 55 gallons and they all seem way expensive
Great question! Best thing to do is give us a call to discuss bulk options - 1-866-399-5562 ext 2. People in your shoes generally purchase multiple full 275 gallon totes of sealer (www.asphaltkingdom.com/coal-tar-sealer-275-gallon-tote.html) and transfer them over to your main tank. The more you buy, the more you save as shipping per tote drops dramatically. We are standing by, give us a call 1-866-399-5562
Hey I have a question can I run my business under a GC license
Swagg 418 We believe you can but best to speak with your state authorities regarding licensing in this regard. It’’s a great business, we know you’ll do great!
I have a question. I watched a video of seal coating and before they. Swept it on he sprayed they driveway with water. Not a alot but put a good mist down. Isn't that a no?
Thanks for the comment. We don't recommend power washing the driveway because it will widen up the cracks and will cause more damage. We suggest using a blower to prep the asphalt before sealcoating.
@@AsphaltKingdom Oh no they didn't power wash they sprayed water on the driveway then poured sealer over it.
@@dzl6848 you can dampen the driveway no problem at all. However, it’s not necessary as sealer is diluted with water for application.
@@AsphaltKingdom Oh ok. Thanks for info.
$100 for a driveway? I hope that's just an example my boss is charging customers hundreds and hundreds of dollars for normal residential driveways. on the real monster driveways he's bringing multiple thousands in on one job. not to mention the parking lots we do which are big money makers as well
What is better spraying or using a squeegee
Sprayers provide better control of the amount of sealant used, making the application process more precise. With the Sprayer, the sealer coming out of the tip applies an even coat. Squeegee will consume more sealer than sprayers and are the most time-consuming. On many jobs, it will take twice as long for workers to apply seal coating by hand.
@@AsphaltKingdom thank you very much for your reply
I make so much money coming to places like this and resealing them right, with a brush and real sealer
Sean Garrison the clients application was resealed 2 years later. Are you saying that spraying sealer is not a proper application and are you saying that Gemseal sealer diluted 20% is not quality sealcoat?
@@AsphaltKingdom I will get my jobs with a brush look at 4 years plus what your jobs look at one. No offense I love companies like this. My mix is more concentrated and I have a unique system to brush it on to create more build for a longer lasting product. I even brush fast enough to do 60k sqft on my own in a day. So why spray but to chimp on material? As far as sealer I only use the best sealer shouldn't look like used motor oil.
Sean Garrison Sounds great. So you seal a driveway or parking lot every 4 years?
@@seangarrison7942 lol a brush? No kid. Sprayed with the proper product is that right way to seal a driveway. If you squeegee or roll it's just paint. You can also spray paint like we see here. But ya
@@chadstevens1727 what do you use to seal driveways
Get me a job
Rock and roll brother!
Why would you need to do it again the following year?
Light respray for a quick cleaning after a harsh winter.
daniel johnson you paint a house with two coats of paint .not one coat of paint .. if asphalt sealing is done corectly .it only needs to be done once every 3 to 4 years .. with a little maintenance inbetween .. what you are seeing in this vid much is bullshit .. I was shaken
Doors . Many years ago . And never did I ever have to go back and reseal a driveway . Unless something destructive happened and no not everyone can do it .. if they could everyone would be doing it and many who are shouldnt be doing it anyway .. ive seen more sealer on peoples property than on there driveway .. its crazy ..
Customers like the protection of sealcoating but they like to get it done every season to freshen up the look of the driveway as well. Just like a fresh coat of paint
where do you find that sprayer?
Great question! You can find all our Sealcoating sprayers at www.asphaltkingdom.com/sealcoat-sprayer.html
Why are you using a spray gun when other videos of sealing they use a "pour" system and a long squeegee to spread the solution.
You can do either or. Spraying is as effective as handle application just faster. Just be sure to apply the right volume of sealer for proper protection.
In the sunlight the new coat on the edge almost looks white.
Yes, it was sealed though for sure. Are you in the business?
@@AsphaltKingdom Nope.
@@outdoorshack7541 got it. Always here for you.
What kind of sealer are you using?
Hi William, thanks for the comment. We recommend using either coal tar sealer or Asphalt emulsion sealer. Learn more about the different kind of asphalt sealer by watching this video: czcams.com/video/T6hHGlOodG4/video.html
Can you also tell me about your setup? What kind of wand and tip combination was used?
@@OhSoBrownguy007 this was one of our older styled trigger wands. We have since replaced with larger wands that have a larger patters opportunity. Especially with a large 80:40 tip.
When using the smaller/thinner spray wand did you run into any clogging issues with the wand/smaller tips? I'm thinking about running a second hose with a smaller wand like what you would find on an oil base rig for smaller jobs that require more cutting along borders. Thoughts?
@@OhSoBrownguy007 you shouldn't use a small pressure washer styled wand ideally. You would use one of these to prevent clogging and down time - www.asphaltkingdom.com/ak-sealcoating-trigger-spray-wand.html
I'll give you credit. The way you speak is very professional and how you are explaining everything is correct from prepping and spraying the way you are (yet very slow) is correct. Only thing is the product is crap. It damages driveways which is why they are covered in surface cracks from years of that product. It's just paint dude. Clean job, very professional. But bad product.
Chad Stevens thanks for your comments. Why is fedspec Gemseal a bad product. It’s one of the most credible sealers in the marketplace.
Lol I been in the business 15 years great way to make quick money but honestly do think it’s ruins the asphalt , black for one draws a lot more heat to the surface thick asphalt emulsion sealer doesn’t allow the asphalt to breath so it splits an multiple times sealcoating will eventually lead to heavy flaking off , best bet maybe seal once in the life of the asphalt keep it blown off I would say just fill cracks every few years but nothing last over a few months in the cracks anyway from hot rubber filler to concrete lol but I’ll keep getting paid to do it👍🏻
@@vincentpierce9276 when you use the wrong product your right it won't last a few months. Use the right product it will last 2 to 3 years depending on age of driveway.
Makes sense hopefully they make that right product ur talking about soon I’ve only tried everything I can get or create in 12 states
But wasn’t talking about how long the product last I’ve sealed with tac , Gilsonite , coal tar , two different asphalt emulsions just saying really doesn’t do any good an does ruin asphalt but great sales concept I sell jobs multiple times every day on doin the work

1:25 ...Yeah...time for you to get a watch.
Brad K exactly! A sealer watch.
Looks very thin
Johnny Young this is commercial grade coal tar sealer on a 1 year old driveway. You wouldn’t want to put it down too thick on a driveway that’s quite new like this.
Asphalt Kingdom this is the kind I think looks great black an shiny!!!!! Will it stay that way awhile?
Can it be applied to a concrete driveway?
@@idontcaresapo8233 not Recommened at all.
@@rogerl8488 as the Sealcoat cures it will go to a mat black color like new asphalt.
shouldn't it be HOT???
No, crackfiller is generally a hot application. Sealer is not.

If your making 100 an hour your doing it waaaay wrong
Agreed. Generally the average residential sealcoater earns around $100 per hour. Not a bad days work!
To any newbees wanting to know what i mean..... With driveway sealing I call it the add a zero philosophy if you are doing a driveway and charging the customer $500 it should only cost you 50 at the most immaterial " concentrate... If you are doing a parking lot for 2000 you should have 200 or less in sealer cost... 200 gallons of concentrate at my price of 1.86 a gallon with a 29% cut = about162 gallons of sealer 46 gallon of water makes 208 gallons of sprayable sealer for 324 dollars will cover 21840 ft² x .17 in Massachusetts = $3712... Once you get good at your technique obviously you're not gonna be spraying up by houses or by walkways and fencing but once you have your edging done and are able to start spraying it goes very fast.... We have had jobs in apartment complexes or condominium associations where we have done as many as 30 driveways in one day but we have a saying which is on a normal day working within your town you should be able to do 5 driveways by 2 o'clock in the afternoon if you are getting 3 to 500 per driveway it makes for pretty good day
I understand some people get a lot more coverage on square footage per gallon than maybe I do I like to keep my coverage per gallon at around a 100 we are using A 3/8 70° tip on 1 coat..... This is a philosophy that I use for when calculating a job I switch it around to the where I take my quote minus the last digits and gives me my rough estimate for gallons of ready mix.
Incredible advice. Thank you so much for helping and sharing! Everyone, great input, take notes!
If you only do 100$ perhour youre the worst of all.. 300$ per hour is more realistic
That's some great money for sure $$$
Excellent video though 👌
