Because 85% of driveway seal coating contractors near Bridgewater fall into a category of sales people versus pavement consultants, when the property manager approaches them for honest straight-forward advice, the fear of losing the sales kicks in and they will sell the prospect on seal coating when they themselves know it will provide little value other than cosmetic enhancement of the asphalt, and most of the time that is short lived.
