Seal the Deal: How Concrete Sealing Defends Against Nebraska’s Toughest Conditions

What Is Concrete Sealing?

Concrete sealing involves applying a protective coating or film to concrete surfaces to prevent water, chemicals, and debris from penetrating the pores. Concrete is naturally porous. Without sealing, moisture can seep in, freeze, and expand—leading to cracks, spalling, and deterioration.

At Nebraska Power Sweeping, we use commercial-grade sealers designed for high-traffic areas and varied environmental conditions. Whether it's a parking lot, sidewalk, driveway, or patio, sealed concrete is far more durable and visually appealing.


Key Benefits of Sealing Concrete:


1. Moisture Protection

Sealing prevents water penetration and freeze-thaw damage. This is crucial in Nebraska’s freeze-prone seasons.

2. Chemical Resistance

Deicing salts, oil spills, and cleaning agents won’t erode or stain sealed concrete as easily.

3. Longevity & Durability

Sealed surfaces last significantly longer. Regular sealing can double the lifespan of concrete.

4. Enhanced Appearance

Sealers add a rich, clean finish—making surfaces look newer and brighter. They also reduce dusting.

5. Easy Maintenance

Sealed concrete resists dirt buildup. It pairs perfectly with our street sweeping services, keeping commercial properties cleaner, longer.


Types of Sealers We Use:


We offer both penetrating and film-forming sealers, depending on the site and use case:

  • Silane/Siloxane Sealers (penetrating): Great for freeze-thaw protection and moisture resistance.
  • Acrylic Sealers: Create a glossy or matte film, often used for decorative concrete.
  • Epoxy or Urethane Sealers: Heavy-duty protection for commercial settings like warehouses.


When Should You Seal Concrete?


  • New concrete should be sealed after curing (about 28 days).
  • Resealing is recommended every 2-3 years, or as wear shows.
  • Fall and spring are optimal seasons for sealing due to moderate temps.
