Not every concrete surface needs a full coating. A Clean & Seal is the ideal maintenance solution for driveways, patios, walkways, and other areas where you want to preserve concrete’s natural look without major downtime. This treatment enhances the color of existing concrete while sealing out moisture, oil, and salt to prevent damage from Minnesota’s harsh freeze–thaw cycles.
Regular sealing can extend the lifespan of your concrete by years, reducing the risk of cracks, pitting, and staining. It’s a smart, cost-effective way to protect your investment while keeping your property looking clean and well cared for.
Sealed concrete doesn’t just look better, it performs better. The commercial-grade sealers used by Drews Industries penetrate deep into the surface, creating a protective barrier that resists water intrusion, chemicals, and UV damage.
With professional cleaning and sealing, your concrete will have:
Whether you’re sealing a new pour or refreshing existing concrete, this process keeps surfaces stronger, safer, and easier to maintain through every season.
Concrete needs time to cure before it can be properly sealed. For most projects, Drews Industries recommends waiting a minimum of 28 days after new concrete is poured before applying any sealer. This curing period allows excess moisture to escape and ensures the surface is ready to bond with a commercial-grade sealer.
Sealing too early can trap moisture, weaken the surface, or prevent the sealer from performing the way it should. Once the concrete has cured, a Clean & Seal treatment helps protect it from Minnesota’s biggest threats: moisture, road salt, staining, and freeze/thaw cycles.
To get the best results from your sealing Drews Industries recommend the following:
Our team uses professional-grade sealers and applies them according to manufacturer specifications for long-term performance.
Depending on the condition of your surface, this may include power washing, degreasing, or stiff-bristle scrubbing to remove dirt, stains, or curing residue.
A dry, clean surface allows the sealer to penetrate and bond correctly, giving you stronger and longer-lasting protection.
If your concrete has difficult discoloration or buildup, our team can recommend the right cleaning products and methods to remove it without damaging the surface.
A Clean & Seal is more than a one-time treatment; it’s an essential part of maintaining your concrete for the long run. Most surfaces benefit from resealing every 2–3 years, depending on traffic and exposure.
Drews Industries uses two types of professional-grade sealers to keep your concrete protected:
Acrylic-based sealers that dry quickly, enhance color, and provide a non-yellowing finish.
Penetrating sealers that absorb into the concrete to create a breathable barrier against moisture and deicing chemicals.
Our team can evaluate your concrete, recommend the right sealer for your environment, and set up a maintenance plan that keeps your surface performing at its best. Proper care today helps prevent costly repairs tomorrow and keeps your concrete looking sharp for years to come.
A Clean & Seal treatment is a simple way to add years to your concrete’s life, and a finish that’s easy to maintain. Whether for your home or business, Drews Industries delivers the same attention to detail and quality products we use in every coating project.
