What happens if you don't seal concrete?
If you decide not to seal your concrete surfaces a number of problems and unintended consequences can occur, such as:
- Water Penetration: Since unsealed concrete is porous, water can infiltrate from rain or from underground sources. This moisture can cause many issues including efflorescence (a white, powdery deposit that forms on the surface as a result of water evaporation), freeze-thaw damage and the development of mold and mildew.
- Staining and Discolouration: Because uncoated concrete is more porous, it’s more likely to become stained when exposed to oil, grease, rust, or chemicals. These spills are hard to clean and would spoil the concrete look.
- Cracking and Surface Wear: Exposed to the elements, concrete is more susceptible to cracking, spall (surface flakiness), and wear. And this gets exacerbated by the concrete expanding and contracting with temperature variability, plus having moisture hit it.
- Fading and UV Damage: Unsealed concrete can fade with extended exposure to sunlight. This can and do have a weathered look.
- Decreased Durability: Unprotected concrete is susceptible to wear and tear, this means it will have a lesser lifespan. Such buildups can result in costly repairs or concrete replacement.
- Higher Maintenance: Unsealed concretes tend to need a lot more cleaning and attention for stains, surface problems, as well as moisture issues.
- Reduced Curb Appeal: The concrete that is not sealed may begin to look aged or worn, which can compromise the beauty of your home. Well, this might be an issue if you care about the outward appearance of your residence or place of business.
By doing schools and services you can avoid these penetration of materials much longer. A lot longer Sealing concrete is a proactive defense to combat increase costs for degeneration with your concrete surface. With the right sealant, you can protect your concrete and make it resist to moisture and stains, look great and last longer.

How long does sealed concrete last?
The life of a concrete sealer depends on numerous factors such as the type of sealant used, where the slab is located, and how it was installed – not to mention how much abuse it’s subjected to.
The following is a general rule of thumb when it comes to concrete sealers:
- Penetrating Sealers: Penetrating sealers that are absorbed into the concrete’s pores usually last longer. They may need to be replaced anywhere from 3 to 10 years or more depending on the climate, quality of application, and exposure to sunlight.
- Topical Sealers: This type of sealer is applied to the top of the concrete surface and forms a layer. The life expectancy of such sealers may be between1 and 5 years,few good acrylic & epoxy sealers do last longer. The life of surface sealers will vary with foot traffic, weather and maintenance.
- Application Quality: Correct application is key to the long-life of sealant. The professionally applied sealer is also most likely going to have better wear and protection than the bad one.
- Environmental Factors: Weather is a factor. If you see open areas that are not protected under shaded areas such as a carport, expect heavy sun exposure, precipitation and traffic to lead to earlier re-sealing.
- Upkeep: With a little care and maintenance (cleaning, resealing as required) like a removal of your worn out sealer can add to the life of the sealant. Poor upkeep causes premature deterioration of the sealer.
- Type of Concrete: The type and condition of the concrete surface can determine how long a sealer will last. You may need to reseal older, more porous concrete surfaces.
To glean the exact life expectancy of a concrete sealer for your job, consider checking with the manufacturer’s specifications printed on the particular product you have chosen to work with.
