Del Smith began Smith and Sons Striping and Sealcoating in 1995. As an Air Force retiree, Del is on site at times throughout the process to maintain the highest level of quality. When we started out in 1995, we understood that preventative pavement maintenance was a serious business. Now, more than ever, proper upkeep of facilities is a critical business requirement, and we provide the insight, knowledge, and resources to help you fulfill prevailing demands and make a great first impression well beyond the surface.
Any time a repair or maintenance is deferred you run the risk of transforming a simple or modest project into a far more costly and time-consuming one. That's because (unlike wine), asphalt pavements do not get better with age. The effects of weather, traffic and sunlight conspire to break down a pavement over time, so simply shelving a project until "later" will only increase the chance that the solution will be more involved, more expensive, and more inconvenient to your tenants and their customers.
Sealcoating is the process of applying a product to the surface of the asphalt that fills the pores to protect against water, chemicals, and the elements that erode the surface, give a consistent black color to a faded out parking lot, and provide an anti-slip surface for safety. Why should you sealcoat? To protect the surface of the asphalt from erosion and to enhance or compliment the appearance of your home or facility. When should the asphalt be sealcoated? New asphalt. When asphalt is first installed it is very porous, and thus more vulnerable to erosion from water, oils, gasoline, etc.

Cold air and low temperatures takes its toll on your asphalt during the Ohio winter months. Due the continuous rise and fall in temperatures, cracks begin to form, leading to your asphalt expanding and contracting and eventually weakening the area until a pothole is formed.
