Protect your Driveway, Patio, and Sidewalks with Professional Concrete Sealing
Concrete is one of the most durable building materials available, but it isn’t invincible. Cincinnati’s climate subjects your concrete surfaces to a relentless cycle of heat, humidity, rain, freezing temperatures, and deicing chemicals that break down even the strongest concrete over time. Moisture penetrates the porous surface, freezes and expands, and gradually creates cracks, spalling, and surface deterioration.
Professional concrete sealing from Viking Concrete and Power Washing creates a protective barrier that shields your driveways, patios, sidewalks, and other concrete surfaces from the elements. It’s the most cost-effective way to extend the life of your concrete and keep it looking great for years to come.
Why Concrete Sealing Is Essential in Cincinnati
Ohio’s and Northern Kentucky's freeze-thaw cycle is one of the biggest threats to unprotected concrete. Here’s how it works: rain and snowmelt seep into the microscopic pores of your concrete. When temperatures drop below freezing, that trapped moisture expands by up to nine percent, creating internal pressure that cracks the surface from the inside out. Over the course of a Cincinnati winter—where temperatures frequently cross the freeze-thaw threshold—this cycle repeats dozens of times, causing cumulative damage.
Add in the deicing salts commonly used on driveways and walkways, and the damage accelerates. Salt doesn’t just melt ice—it increases the number of freeze-thaw cycles by repeatedly lowering and raising the freezing point of moisture in your concrete.
A quality concrete sealer blocks moisture from penetrating the surface, dramatically reducing freeze-thaw damage and salt-related deterioration. It’s preventive maintenance that saves you thousands in future repair or replacement costs.
What Surfaces Should Be Sealed?
Driveways – Your driveway faces the harshest conditions—vehicle traffic, oil drips, deicing salt, and maximum weather exposure. Sealing your driveway is the single most impactful step you can take to prevent premature deterioration.
Patios – Protect your outdoor living investment. Sealing is especially important for stamped and decorative concrete patios to preserve color and texture.
Sidewalks and Walkways – Sealed sidewalks resist staining, discourage organic growth, and maintain a cleaner appearance between professional cleanings.
Garage Floors – Sealing protects against oil stains, chemical spills, and moisture issues common in residential and commercial garages.
Pool Decks and Porches – Protect surfaces that face constant moisture exposure with appropriate slip-resistant sealers.
How Often Should You Seal Your Concrete?
Most concrete surfaces in the Cincinnati area benefit from resealing every two to three years, depending on the type of sealer used, the amount of traffic the surface receives, and its exposure to the elements. Driveways and high-traffic commercial areas may need more frequent attention, while sheltered patios may go longer between applications.
Signs that your concrete needs resealing include water that no longer beads on the surface, visible darkening when wet, returning stains that used to repel, or visible wear on topical sealer coatings.
Our Concrete Sealing Process
Surface Preparation – Proper sealing starts with a perfectly clean surface. We power wash your concrete to remove all dirt, grime, oil, algae, and existing failed sealer. A clean surface ensures maximum sealer penetration and adhesion.
Crack and Damage Assessment – Before sealing, we inspect for any cracks, spalling, or surface damage that should be repaired first. Sealing over existing damage locks in problems rather than solving them. As Cincinnati’s trusted concrete contractor, we can handle any necessary repairs before sealing.
Proper Curing and Drying – We ensure your concrete is fully dry before applying sealer. Moisture trapped under a sealer causes hazing, peeling, and premature failure.
Professional Sealer Application – We apply a high-quality concrete sealer using professional application methods that ensure even, consistent coverage. The specific sealer type is selected based on your surface, exposure conditions, and desired appearance.
Cure Time Guidance – We provide clear instructions on cure times and when your sealed surfaces are ready for foot traffic and vehicle use.
