How Do I Seal My Concrete?
When a Commerce, MI homeowner wanted lasting protection for their concrete, they turned to professional concrete sealing for a permanent solution.
More homeowners are choosing to reinvest in their biggest investment: their home. After more than three decades in their Commerce, MI home, one couple was ready to give their aging concrete driveway new life. Before reaching for a DIY concrete sealer, they called Ayers for a professional opinion. So, which offers better protection for your driveway: DIY or professional concrete sealing?
DIY vs. Professional Concrete Sealer: What’s the Difference?
SealantPro®, the penetrating concrete sealant we use at Ayers, protects driveways, patios, walkways, and pool decks from moisture, stains, and everyday wear. The right concrete sealer can extend the life of these surfaces, helping prevent costly concrete repairs or premature replacement.
But not all concrete sealers offer the same protection. See how common DIY sealers compare to professionally installed cement sealant:
A Complete Concrete Repair for a Commerce, MI Driveway
During his free estimate, our Commerce, MI homeowner’s Ayers specialist walked him through the options for restoring his aging driveway. He wanted a permanent solution, but sealing alone wouldn’t address the cracks and concrete slabs that had shifted over time. As a one-stop solution for concrete repair and protection, Ayers designed a plan to level, repair, and protect the existing concrete.
We installed:
- PolyLevel®: Lifted and leveled the shifted concrete slabs, restoring a more even surface.
- NexusPro® Crack Repair: Sealed cracks and joints to protect against water intrusion and further deterioration.
- SealantPro®: Permanently bonded with the concrete to protect the driveway from moisture, stains, and everyday wear.
With the right repairs completed before sealing, the homeowners could preserve the concrete they already and protect it for years to come. Check out the below pictures from their custom concrete project.
