Sealcoating in Independence, Missouri

Independence is Jackson County's eastern anchor and Harry Truman's hometown, with the Truman Presidential Library and the historic Independence Square at its center. I-70 runs through town, US-24 and US-40 carry the crosstown traffic, and MO-291 and Little Blue Parkway serve the growing east side. The Independence Center retail area and the highway commercial strips stay busy daily.

It's a town with two eras of pavement. The historic neighborhoods around the Square and the older streets near downtown have original driveways that have seen decades of winters. The east side and the newer subdivisions have younger pavement worth protecting early. Both deal with the same mid-Missouri cycle: water in the cracks, freezing nights, spring damage.

Our Asphalt Services in Independence

• Asphalt repair: Potholes, crumbling edges, and failed patches. We cut out what's failed and repair it so it ties into the good pavement around it.
• Crack filling: We clean out cracks and fill them with hot rubberized crack filler that flexes with the pavement instead of popping back out.
• Sealcoating: A protective coat over the asphalt that shields it from sun and water and gives the whole surface a clean, uniform black finish.
• Asphalt paving: New driveways, extensions, and parking areas, plus full replacements where the old pavement is past saving. Proper base, proper compaction.
• Chip seal: Liquid asphalt with layers of stone chips rolled in. A tough, economical surface for long driveways and rural lanes around eastern Jackson County.

Two Eras of Pavement in Truman's Hometown

The older streets near the Square and downtown Independence have residential pavement that's been patched for years. Patch over patch leaves uneven surfaces that hold water, and standing water is what breaks asphalt down. Out east, the subdivisions and the commercial corridors along I-70 and 291 have newer pavement where sealcoating keeps the sun and water off before damage starts. Whatever the age of your pavement, the work is the same: repair what's failed, fill what's cracked, seal the surface.

Independence Sealcoating FAQ

Q: How much does sealcoating cost in Independence? A: It depends on the size and condition of the pavement. Call 1-800-385-8598 for a free estimate and we'll price it straight.

Q: Can you sealcoat over cracked asphalt? A: Yes, in the right order. We clean out and fill the cracks first, then sealcoat over the top. Sealing over open cracks without filling them doesn't fix anything.

Q: Do you do chip seal on the rural edges of Independence? A: Yes. Chip seal is a good fit for the longer lanes on the east side of town, a tough stone surface at a reasonable price.
