If you own a business, you know there are few things that can welcome your clients like a newly-paved, freshly-painted parking lot. It’s practically an invitation to come in and look around. If time and the elements have caused your lot to become less than attractive, you may want to take advantage of Commercial Asphalt Paving Services to spruce things up a bit. It may just be a few pot holes that need repairing, or some small fractures that need attention, but even if your parking lot needs a complete repaving, these professionals can handle it.
Repairs to parking lots or driveways are usually the result of an imperfect initial installation of the asphalt. Very often the base material is either the wrong type or it is put in place with holes or gaps. These imperfections will eventually allow water to seep in, causing the asphalt paving to buckle, creating holes or fractures. Not only are these defects unattractive, they can do serious damage to vehicles if they aren’t repaired quickly. You can continue to patch these problem areas, but the most economical solution is to have the area repaved by experienced professionals to make sure you don’t have a repeat of the issues caused by the previous installers.
Once your new parking lot has been paved, it is critical that it be properly sealed. A commercial-grade sealant should be used and at least two coats should be applied. Some Commercial Asphalt Paving Services also add materials to their sealant to increase its effectiveness. To ensure a good seal, many paving contractors put the first coat of sealant down with a squeegee machine and use a sprayer for the second coat, but that depends on the specific circumstances of the area being paved.
