When to Seal New Concrete after Installation

The most common way to preserve the appearance of new concrete is to seal it. Sealing new concrete will protect the surface from a multitude of stains and damage-causing elements. It is a great way to prolong the life of all types of concrete surfaces like driveways, sidewalks, patios, and pool decks.

Sealed concrete cleans up nicer and is easier to maintain. Spills and tannin stains cannot penetrate the concrete surface when it has a protective coating on it. Water is also not easily absorbed into the concrete, which shields it from water and freeze/thaw damage.
