I don't need repaving but do like to apply sealant to the driveway. I need someone to power wash the driveway and apply a coat of sealant. The driveway isn't that long about 30-35' and wide enough for two cars side by side. Would appreciate any recommendation from someone who has used similar service.

If you have a use for a power washer in the future such as siding, decking, car, engine, side walks, pavers etc. It might be a good idea to purchase one $275.00 for a good one with 2,000 psi min. The materials to apply the sealant are inexpensive and easy to apply. Just wear PVC gloves.
But if you wish for someone to perform the service It really comes down to price. Most of the companies who do this now spray the sealant on. Your grass will be black from over spray but it grows back. Careful if your drive way is boardered with block of any kind. This must be protected prior to application.

FYI:
If you have a use for a power washer in the future it might not be a bad idea to purchase one for $297.00 w/2,000 PSI
The materials for the driveway are inexpensive.
If you would rather have it done professionaly most of them spray the sealant on. Just need to be careful of the edges if their bordered with stone or block.
Prices varry. If you wait (1) more month the cost may be more effective.
