Best Sealcoating Software (2026): Built for Weather, Deposits, and Speed

Most contractor software wasn't built for sealcoating.

It doesn't understand:

  • Weather windows (rain kills jobs)
  • Cure time risk (24–48 hours exposed)
  • Material calculations (coverage rates, coats, crack fill)
  • Speed (leads go cold in 15 minutes)

BidBlitz is purpose-built for sealcoating contractors.


What sealcoating software should include

1) Fast quoting with sq ft + linear ft

Sealcoating pricing is simple:

  • Square footage for sealer
  • Linear footage for crack fill
  • Prep fees
  • Upsells (striping, primer, extra coat)

Your software should auto-calculate totals from these inputs.

2) Weather alerts per job

You need to know:

  • Temp forecast (too cold = bad bond)
  • Precipitation during work window
  • Precipitation during cure window (24–48 hours)

BidBlitz shows this per job address + scheduled date.

3) Deposit collection (before the schedule)

Sealcoating schedules shift constantly because of weather.

Without deposits:

  • Customers cancel last-minute
  • You eat crew downtime
  • Jobs float for weeks

With deposits:

  • Schedule is locked
  • Customer has skin in the game
  • You can reschedule confidently

BidBlitz includes Stripe deposit links in every proposal.

4) Material calculator

Know how much sealer and crack fill you need before you quote.

BidBlitz includes a material calculator based on:

  • Coverage rate (default: 80 sq ft/gallon for sealer)
  • Number of coats
  • Crack fill rate (default: 150 linear ft/gallon)

5) Crew dispatch sheets

Once the job is approved, your crew needs:

  • Address
  • Scope (sq ft, crack repair, striping, etc.)
  • Materials needed
  • Special instructions
  • Weather status

BidBlitz generates dispatch sheets from approved bids.

FAQ

Does BidBlitz work for asphalt repair too?

Yes — you can create custom line items for patching, crack routing, etc.

Can I use it for line striping only?

Yes — just price by linear footage and skip the sealer calculations.

Do I need to buy a separate weather service?

No — weather alerts are included on paid plans.


The bottom line

Sealcoating isn't just "contracting." It's weather-dependent, speed-driven, and deposit-critical.

BidBlitz is built for that reality.
