Thermoplastic Striping
Thermoplastic striping offers a durable and highly reflective alternative to traditional paint, drying quickly and resisting wear from weather and heavy traffic. Its enhanced longevity helps keep your lot organized and compliant with safety standards for years.
Complete Sealcoating Work
Sealcoating protects asphalt surfaces from UV damage, oxidation, and water infiltration to extend pavement life and preserve appearance. Quality preparation, including crack filling and cleaning, is critical to a long-lasting sealcoat that helps prevent early deterioration.
Sealcoating Surface Preparation
Proper surface preparation removes debris, dirt, and old coatings to ensure new sealants bond correctly and perform as intended. Filling cracks and addressing surface flaws before application improves durability and reduces future maintenance needs.
Sealcoat Spray-On Application
Spray-on sealcoating delivers more consistent coverage than traditional methods by filling voids and sealing surface texture thoroughly. This enhanced application method helps build a tighter, more protective layer for asphalt that increases lifespan and value.

Understanding Novato's Unique Paving Needs
Novato sits further from the coast than southern Marin, so summers run warmer, with July highs near 80 degrees and heat waves that reached a record 111 degrees in September 2022. Wet winters follow, bringing about 25 inches of rain between November and March. That cycle of sun, heat, and rain causes cracking, surface oxidation, and fading striping across parking lots, retail centers, HOA communities, and municipal properties throughout the city and surrounding Marin County. High-volume traffic on US-101 and State Route 37, and along corridors like Redwood Boulevard and Rowland Boulevard, adds further wear on commercial surfaces. To meet these demands, our asphalt paving services, asphalt maintenance, and asphalt sealcoating follow industry standards to improve safety, protect curb appeal, and extend the life of each pavement investment in California’s North Bay.
