In New England, however, seal coating
dramatically lengthens the life of asphalt pavement. And you know what
else? A
smooth dark black driveway makes your whole house worth more money, and
makes it
easier to sell.

His arguments about the cost of the material vs. repaving is just plain
laughable.

I live in New England and don't seal mine and it looks better than some
newer crappy jobs in the area. Cracks should be filled if they occur. The
rest is cosmetic. Re-coat the week before you list the house for sale.
Otherwise, it is a waste.
