More Reviews

We had an immediate safety concern involving the need to replace a damaged street drain grate. So, a small project but important to us. Topps responded within less than a week, installing a new drain to our specifications at a fair price. Highly recommend them.

As always, when it comes to Asphalt sealing companies, you always have to be skeptical, and trust me, I was!

I had a great sealing guy. He is no longer around, but his sealing lasted 3 years!

I chose Topps after researching 4 other sealers in the area. I chose Topps because they sounded the most knowledgable about the process and didn’t skimp on quality. Many others water down the the sealer, or will claim one thing and provide another. Topps, was a little more expensive than others, however, they were the only ones that agreed with the type of application I was looking for.

if you get your asphalt sealed, always insist on the use of SealMaster, make sure they add silica sand and Poly Alt 604. The wear and traction from Topps is the best with this combination!…. Also, DO NOT, repeat, DO NOT drive or walk on the driveway for at LEAST 48 hours. I recommend 3-4 days. The extra wait is totally worth it!

At the end of the day, Topps was outstanding. There was a little miscommunication where I wasn’t aware that they were coming, and immediately, they reached out and resolved the issue in a very professional manor.

Since my driveway was sealed I have already had 3 neighbors come to me asking who I used. They all explained that they used another (shall I say “less expensive’) service, and regretted it.
