Cracks open up in concrete driveways, patios, and walkways over time. In Midlothian, the weather does the work, swinging from hot, muggy summers to freezing winters and back. At Reyco Pressure Washing & Sealing, we clean the surface first, fill every crack, then spray or roll on a sealer matched to your concrete. Ready to protect yours? Call us at (804) 338-6763.
The sealer we use and how we apply it change depending on the kind of concrete you have. We seal three kinds most often, and here is how we handle each one.
This is one of the two driveway finishes we see most on local homes. The surface has a fine, even broom texture, so we spray sealer on it. Spraying lays down a consistent coat across the whole slab and settles into the texture without pooling.
The other common driveway finish around here. Aggregate has a pebbled, uneven surface, so instead of spraying, we roll on the sealer. Rolling works the sealer down into every dip and around every stone, which a sprayed coat tends to skip over.
Stamped and patterned concrete also gets the sealer rolled on. Rolling keeps the color and the pattern underneath even, so nothing gets missed across the design.
A sealing job is only as good as the prep underneath it, and that is where having one crew from start to finish pays off. Here is what you get with us.
Sealing is in our name. Once your driveway, patio, pavers, deck, or fence is clean, we can seal or stain it too, so you deal with one crew from start to finish. You won’t have to line up a second contractor after the cleaning is done.
No single sealer fits every surface, so we pick one for your concrete and the look you want. On decorative and exposed aggregate, you choose a shiny or a matte finish.
We fill the cracks as part of the sealing job, not on a separate visit. We do this once the concrete has dried, before the sealer goes on, so the sealer covers filled cracks instead of open ones.
From your first call to the tape across the driveway, here is how the job runs.
Reach out by call, text, or our form, and if we miss you, we call back by the end of the day. Tell us your name, address, email, and what you want sealed. We measure your concrete online and confirm the surface, then email you an itemized estimate. There is no charge and no phone quote.
Approve your estimate with one click and choose from the dates we send you. The morning before we arrive, you get an automatic reminder.
We knock when we arrive so you know we’re there. Then we wash the concrete with a pressure washer and a flat surface cleaner for an even clean. In good weather, the concrete needs about 24 hours to dry before we can seal.
Once the surface is dry, we come back and fill each crack with crack filler. This sets up a smooth, even base for the sealer.
Next, we apply the sealer chosen for your surface. We spray or roll it on, depending on the concrete, covering the whole surface in an even coat.
We tape off the driveway with caution tape and let you know the job is done. Pay by check, by card on site, or from the emailed invoice, and your receipt follows automatically. If anything is not right, we come back and make it right.
We price concrete sealing by job size, and cleaning is always included. Your exact number comes on the emailed estimate.
A couple of ways to save:
Every job comes with our 100% satisfaction guarantee. If anything isn’t right, our owner comes back out, usually within 24 hours, to fix it, and if something gets damaged, we make it right. You are not calling a call center; you are dealing with us directly.
Concrete sealer typically lasts at least two years. Please keep cars off for 48 hours after we seal; we’ll tape off the driveway so no one pulls in. We will not promise more than that, because how long a sealer holds depends on wear and weather.
Plan on about three days from the first wash to a sealed surface, including the cleaning and the cure time. A good stretch of dry weather matters, since the concrete has to dry before we can seal. Your estimate confirms the scheduling.
