HOW MUCH DOES ASPHALT SEALING COST PER SQUARE FOOT?

- Asphalt sealing cost per square foot is a common question by residential homeowners and contractors. If you're a residential homeowner that's hiring a contractor to seal coat your driveway, expect to pay between 25¢ to 45¢ per square foot. If you're a contractor who's looking for the cost of the materials that you're going to use for the job, you are looking at around 4¢ to 7¢ per square foot.
The age and square footage of the asphalt affect these calculations. Aging asphalt requires more sealer than a brand new one and bigger properties need more sealer, longer working hours, and effort from a contractor.

Top dollar is 50 cents a square in Maine I charge typically .36 -40 cents R&B Sealcoating Augusta Portland Maine why pave it when we can simply seal it and a low cost and protect your driveway
Keep crushing it brother and remember progress is key.
I'm trying to do small driveways here in CT during summer by hand. Are you taking .30-.40 including material?? I recently charged $350 for a 10 by 30 ish driveway. Spiderweb cracks sealed, debris and leaves blowed. Everything took me around 8 hours to complete. Material around $150 and work $200. Is that fair enough?? Because it defenetly wouldn't work for me if the material was included.
@@RR-tq4sn were there a lot of linear feet of cracks? $1.25 per liner foot is a goo charge for crack filling. That must've been an older driveway, which you can charge more for. over time you will get much faster when completing this size driveway
I have a large parking lot to seal coat. Is it best to get a hot kettle and spray down or use the buckets that you can get from Home Depot? Is one product better than the next
We should definitely get on a call to explore your pavement maintenance and repair needs. You’ll want to use commercial grade sealcoat and not a residential grade from big box stores. We can ship commercial grade equipment and supplies right to your job site to save you time and provide the quality needed to make your pavement project a win.
Hi guys. I love the idea of going full on residential sealcoating. I'm not planning to buy big equipment yet, but if I do it in the near future I will definitely contact you.
But talking about the video, if I do it by hand as I did it once this year, the by square foot estimate would not work for me. I sealcoated a driveway this last summer and It was like 10 by 30. I sealed a lot of spiderweb cracks and blowed all debris and leaves. It took me the whole day and around $150 material using the 10 year sealing. I charge $200 for the day plus the cost of the sealin and cracks filler. $350.00 total. I think it was fair for me and the client.
So when you talk mention the square foot system is that including the material or just work?
Congrats on getting started and right out of the gate your material costs are 3 times higher than it should be. The $350 price seems about right but with a lot of spider cracks you should be charging a large chunk more as they are more time intensive. Your cost shouldn’t have exceeded $50 in material. We look forward to working with you and getting your costs down so you can be more profitable.
@@AsphaltKingdom Thanks for the answers. That make sense. It was a three 5 gallon containers and 2 gallons of crack filler from Home Depot since I just have a car. I’m doing different side jobs like painting, light repairs and others. My goal is to do full time with residential Sealcoating during summer since CT winter is heavy. Thanks for the insight. I subscribed to your channel.
@@RR-tq4sn have you considered doing pothole repair and making $1000+ per day just like other clients we have doing the same. Potholes are everywhere and they need to be repaired as they are tripping hazards and property owners could be dealing with liability challenges if not repaired. In addition the potholes allow water to destroy the foundation of the asphalt needing rapid replacement not to mention they are a complete eye sore… check this page out on how you can do pothole repair and make bank all year around - blog.asphaltkingdom.com/make-money-all-winter-pothole-repair?hs_amp=true
Hi, I just stumbled across your video as I am looking to bid on a 4,000 sq ft driveway. When I read the comments, I understand that the $0.25-0.45 is for the sealcoating ONLY. Can you please break it down as far as Pressure Washing goals, sealing of cracks and small holes? Thanks kindly!!!
Great questions and happy to help. You'll be around $1.25 per foot for crack sealing and about $25 per sq ft for pothole repair. No need to pressure wash if you do a good scrub and blow off the driveway or parking lot.
Was wondering what the charge rate is per square footing for sealcoating is at this time, like if the Russia and Ukraine stuff has changed the charging rate since shortages since I’m trying to start sealcoating driveways. Would be doing all of my work in Wisconsin so I’m not sure what to charge per square foot for sealing crack sealing and if I need a license or anything to start doing residential driveways. Thank you!
Great question! Generally $0.50 per ft for residential professional sealcoating and commercial around $0.30. $1 per foot for crack sealing. Check with your town hall to make sure you understanding licensing requirements as they can vary.
I charge around 16 cents a sq foot on average. Do to my area and I'm still having a hard time getting customers... Due to most of the other guys charge around 13 cents. I use Gemseal black diamond. The other guys mostly use coal tar. Ugh 😩 sad
Hey brother. So we are curious about our parking lot. Do most people seal coat a 20 year old lot or would you repave it?
Really depends on the condition. Is it extremely cracked up?
Is that strictly for applying the sealcoat, or is that also including edging the overgrown grass, pressure washing the driveway, filling cracks, and seal coating?
Also as a contractor, is this an estimate only if you're spraying sealer?
That is strictly for sealcoating. Yes, it's an estimate only if you're spraying sealer. Are you thinking of getting into the business?
@@AsphaltKingdom Thank you. Well I already own a painting Contracting business. Mainly house painting, spackling, and drywall repair. With other minor maintenance. But people have been contacting me asking me about sealing driveways. Though I'm not going to be getting a sprayer. If I do any driveways it'll be with squeegees and pails.
@@Carpaintry_of_God awesome! Let us know if we can help you with anything at all. Thank you!
Hello.. I have a question I am going to start a seal l coating job for the first time it’s 3000 Square feet there are minor splits in the ground very close together and not deep.I have airport grade latex ite driveway filler sealer so it gets both jobs done at once by both filling cracks and Sealcoating .my question is how much should I charge for a parking lot that big. It’s the most I could get
You’re want to charge around $0.35 per square foot and around $1.25 per linear foot for crack sealing. This is around a $1,300 to $1,500 job if around 10 years old or so.
What would be the cost for asphalt lot crackseal and sealcoat per square foot?
Great question. About $1.25 per ft for crack sealing and $0.40 per sq ft for Sealcoating.
I live on the east coast of North Carolina and I have to drive 2 and half hours one way to get materials so there’s no way I could make a profit at 25 cents to 45 cents a sq ft I start at 55 cents and have went up to as much as 95 cents a sq ft the only company’s that work cheap are the fly by nights . Think you should make a video that would explain to customers looking for prices to compare before they pick a company. Because if heard of customers getting online or CZcams when someone knocks on there door just to get a idea of what it should cost . Just a idea to think about that’s all God bless
Thank you for your advice! Great advice doing the necessary research around pricing in your local market!
Makes no sense mathematically. You're just looking for an excuse to charge dramatically higher prices. Assuming you drive 300 miles round trip and that you buy enough material to do 10,000 sq. ft. in one trip, and that you figure 30 cents a mile and 35.00/hr for your travel cost... you could recover your costs adding just 2.5 cents per square ft to your prices.
U can have it shipped to your door
I charge 50 cents
I just got a brand new asphalt driveway and the first quote I got from him after he was finished with all of the work around my house was $450 and then a month later he said don't forget to come back to seal the driveway it'll be $900. I told him you quoted me $450. And then he started to say oh I have to check all of the gal that will take for this driveway I'm not a fool
Thanks for the share and make sure you always have things in writing.
Just curious, you say the contractor cost is 5 cents per square foot, yet on your website, the material cost alone is .12 cents a square foot. Maybe I’m doing some math wrong but how are you coming up with your number?
That’s a great question. Most of our clients are buying 4 totes at a time when ordering which brings it to around $0.08 delivered. This video was shot in 2020. We are now 2024 so pricing has changed as well.
@@AsphaltKingdom good to know. So as someone looking to start this, 2024 pricing would probably be closer to .15-.18 hard cost I imagine?
@@austinrd23depends how you’re buying the sealcoat. One drum at a time is more costly per sq ft than tote bulk buys. With an investment of $6000 worth of sealcoat you can get down to around $0.08 cost per sq ft. Residential you’ll be charging! $0.50 sq ft. Commercial around $0.30
