What Are the Benefits of Concrete Sealing?
Although concrete does not need to be sealed in order to perform well, the additional advantages of applying a high-quality sealer to your driveway will be worth the small amount per square foot the sealer will cost.
Sealing a driveway/walkway increases not only its service life but also improves the appearance of a plain or decorative concrete driveway by removing any unwanted intrusions into the pores of the concrete.
All exterior concrete slabs exposed to freeze-thaw conditions, whether plain or decorative, should be sealed with a high-quality sealer. The sealer prevents moisture absorption, mold and mildew growth, chemical exposure, and grease and oil stains.
Sealers for exterior concrete are classified into two types: film-formers and penetrants. Penetrating sealers provide the best moisture absorption protection.
Whatever sealer is used, it must be applied correctly. For a free estimate, contact Vortex Concrete Contractors in Lincoln, NE today!

SEALANT TYPES
Penetrating Sealers
Concrete pores below the surface are sealed by penetrating sealers (silicates, silicates, silanes, and siloxane). A penetrating sealer is a sealer that penetrates deeply into the surface of masonry or concrete and chemically reacts from within the pores beneath the surface. Penetrating sealers do not leave a visible surface film or residue, and the majority of them will not change the appearance or color of the surface.
Benefits:
• Protects against harsh weather conditions
• Prevents freeze-thaw damage
• Does not change the appearance of the concrete.
• Prevents slipping in cold or wet conditions
Film-Forming Sealer
Water penetration is prevented by film-forming sealers, which form a barrier on the concrete surface. Acrylic, polyurethane, and epoxy concrete sealers are the most common types of film-forming sealers.
Benefits:
• Create varying degrees of sheen.
• Highlight decorative beauty
• Enhance its color
Siloxane Concrete Sealer
Silane-Siloxane sealers penetrate deeply into the cement and masonry surfaces. They react to create a hydrophobic barrier within the pores, causing water and other liquids to bead off the surface. By reducing water and other fluid absorption on the surface by up to 95 percent, the surface becomes more resistant to cracking, pitting, spalling, freeze-thaw damage, mold and mold growth, and efflorescence formation.
Benefits:
• It creates a durable barrier against moisture and liquid absorption
• It provides a clear, natural finish
• It has no effect on the appearance of the concrete.
MORE SEALANT TYPES
Epoxy
Epoxy is a type of adhesive that is used to bond concrete and other aggregates. In concrete, epoxy resins are used as coatings, repair materials, bonding agents, grouts, adhesives, epoxy mortars, paints, sealers, penetrating sealers, sporting surfaces, and as admixtures to hydraulic cement concrete to produce epoxy polymer-modified concrete.
Benefits:
• Hard, long-lasting finish
• Abrasion-resistant
• Repel water
• Clear in pigment but can be colored
• Available in mid-level sheen or high gloss
Polyurethane Concrete Sealer
Polyurethane sealers are nearly twice as thick as acrylic sealers and form a high-build protective film on the concrete surface with excellent abrasion and chemical resistance. Polyurethane sealers can be used on both the inside and outside of concrete to provide a transparent, non-yellowing, and extremely long-lasting finish.
Benefits:
• Twice as thick as an acrylic sealer
• Available in a variety of sheens
• Non-yellowing
• Highly durable finish
Clear Concrete Sealer
A clear concrete sealer will protect your surface while also making it look polished and finished.
Benefits:
• It protects against penetration and staining
• It improves resistance to foot traffic and normal wear and tear
• It improves the appearance of bare concrete
• It brings out the color of stained concrete.
