What a Sealcoating job looks like in SideWRK.
The sealcoating job as the app lays it out — your own cost sitting on it, and the estimate your customer approves from their phone.
Built for asphalt sealing work — in one app
Priced by the square foot
Enter the driveway area — walk it or trace it on a satellite map — and your per-square-foot rate does the math. Bump it for a second coat, tack on crack filling by the foot, and the number is done before you leave the driveway.
Crack fill and coats as their own lines
Routing and filling the cracks is the work that makes a seal last, so it should never be free. Add crack fill, oil-spot priming, and the two-coat upgrade as separate lines the customer can see and say yes to.
The cure window, on the record
Snap the finished driveway with a timestamp and note the keep-off window — 24 to 48 hours to cure. When someone parks on it early and marks the seal, you have the record of what you told them and when.
Customers approve from their phone
Send a branded approval link. Your customer sees the estimate and taps Approve — logged with their name, the time, and the amount, so the price is agreed before you load the sprayer.
Get paid your way
Take a card or Apple Pay in the app, and the money goes to your own Stripe account on its normal payout schedule. Jobs flip to Paid the moment the balance hits zero.
Real profit, not just revenue
The sealer, the crack filler, the sand, the fuel — each carries a private "your cost" the customer never sees. The Money tab shows what the driveway actually netted you after the pail is empty.

What should sealcoating cost?
Sealcoating is priced by the square foot, with crack filling and a second coat billed on top. Here's what the work runs in 2026, plus a free driveway sealcoating calculator to price it.
By the square foot
Professional sealcoating runs about $0.15–$0.35 per square foot, and some markets reach $0.65. A standard double-car driveway near 550 sq ft lands around $110–$260 for a basic seal — materials are $0.10–$0.50 a foot, so pricing tight is how good operators go broke.
Crack fill extra
Routing and filling cracks typically adds $0.30–$0.60 per linear foot of crack, billed on top of the seal. It is the step that makes the job last, so quote it — a driveway with crack filling runs roughly $185–$390 instead of $110–$260.
Whole projects
Most driveway jobs land between $180 and $850 all in, depending on size, condition, and whether it gets one coat or two. A second coat on tired asphalt runs about 60–80% more and is worth quoting as its own line.

The sealcoating rate behind SideWRK's estimating defaults is $0.20/sq ft, with 65% of a typical ticket paying for time rather than materials. Both numbers come from our 2026 Side-Work Rate Report, which publishes the same figures for all 42 trades.

Add pressure washing — wash it, then seal it, same visit.
A driveway seals better clean, so the one-two is natural: pressure wash the oil and grime off, let it dry, then lay the sealer. The customer who wants a fresh-looking driveway wants both, and you are already on site. Concrete pros pair the same way — they pour the driveway, you keep it sealed. Both trades are already in your plan — one login, one client list, nothing more to pay. Plans are month-to-month — add a trade for the season and drop back after, right from Billing.

What should I charge to sealcoat a driveway?
Professional sealcoating runs about $0.15 to $0.35 per square foot, and some markets reach $0.65. A standard double-car driveway near 550 square feet lands around $110 to $260 for a basic seal, or roughly $185 to $390 with crack filling. Whole projects usually fall between $180 and $850 by size, condition, and coats. Use the free driveway sealcoating calculator to find your number.
Can I bill crack filling and a second coat as separate lines?
Yes — add the driveway seal by the square foot, then add crack filling and a two-coat upgrade as their own lines with their own price. Each line carries a private cost, so you see real profit on the whole job, not just the total.
How do I handle the cure time and keep-off window?
A fresh seal needs to cure before traffic, typically 24 to 48 hours depending on weather. Set the keep-off window on the estimate and snap the finished driveway with a timestamp, so the record shows what you sealed, when, and how long to stay off.
When is sealcoating season?
Sealcoating is a warm-dry-season job. The pavement and air need to be above about 50 degrees with no rain for 24 hours, so spring through early fall is the money window. It pairs well with a snow-removal route that runs the opposite half of the year.
How much does it cost?
SideWRK is $19/month — every trade, everything included. You start on the free plan: five jobs a rolling year, no card, and no expiry. Paying lifts every limit — $19 a month, or $190 a year.
