Frequently Asked Questions
How much does concrete sealing cost in Texas?
Concrete sealing in Texas costs $1 to $8 per square foot depending on sealer type. Penetrating sealers for driveways and patios run $1 to $3 per square foot. Acrylic sealers that enhance color cost $2 to $4. High-performance epoxy coatings for garage floors run $4 to $8. A standard 500 square foot driveway sealing costs $500 to $1,500. Pressure washing before sealing adds $0.50 to $1.50 per square foot.
How often should concrete be sealed in Texas?
In Texas, concrete should be resealed every two to three years for high-exposure surfaces like driveways and pool decks. Patios under covered areas can go three to five years between applications. The Texas sun and heat degrade sealers faster than cooler climates. A simple water test tells you when resealing is needed: if water absorbs into the concrete within 30 seconds instead of beading on the surface, the sealer has worn through.
What type of sealer is best for Texas climate?
Penetrating silane-siloxane sealers are the top choice for exterior concrete in Texas. They soak into the concrete, repel water, and allow moisture vapor to escape, preventing spalling. They maintain the natural look and do not peel or flake. Acrylic sealers add color enhancement but may yellow or peel in intense UV. For garage floors, epoxy or polyaspartic coatings provide maximum stain protection. Always choose UV-stable formulations for Texas sun exposure.
Can sealing prevent concrete cracks?
Sealing does not prevent structural cracks caused by soil movement or improper construction. However, it significantly reduces cracking from moisture penetration and freeze-thaw cycling. By keeping water out of the concrete pores, sealing prevents the expansion damage that causes spalling and surface cracking. It also slows the deterioration of control joints, keeping them functional longer. Sealing is preventive maintenance, not structural repair.
Should new concrete be sealed in Texas?
Yes, but timing is critical. New concrete must cure for a minimum of 28 days before applying sealer. Applying too early traps moisture and causes whitening or delamination. For stamped or colored concrete, the contractor typically applies an initial cure-and-seal product, then a permanent sealer after 30 days. In Texas summer, the initial cure period may be shortened to 21 days if wet curing was maintained properly throughout.
Does sealing make concrete slippery?
Film-forming sealers like acrylics and epoxies can create a slippery surface when wet, which is a concern for pool decks and walkways. Penetrating sealers do not change the surface texture at all and are the safest option for exterior use. For surfaces that must have a film-forming sealer, non-slip additives mixed into the final coat provide traction. Always specify slip-resistant sealer for pool decks, steps, and sloped surfaces.
