  • How often should I seal coat my parking lot?

    On average, commercial parking lots should undergo seal coating every 3-4 years, considering various factors such as weather conditions, new construction, snow plowing, and more. By implementing scheduled maintenance, including seal coating, you can effectively preserve or even extend the lifespan of your parking lot for over 20 years.

  • Why is seal coating your parking lot important?

    Seal coating your parking lot holds significant importance as it shields the asphalt from wear and tear, water damage, and cracking. Applying asphalt sealer involves providing a protective coating to your parking lot, ensuring its durability, and maintaining its appealing appearance over an extended period.

  • What is the importance of line striping?

    Various factors, including safety, traffic flow, compliance, and accessibility, come into play. Line striping plays a crucial role in organizing parking and facilitating smooth traffic flow, enabling customers to navigate the parking lot efficiently. Many cities and townships mandate compliance with local regulations for safety and accessibility, with fines possibly imposed for parking lots lacking clear markings. Accessibility, particularly for handicapped parking spaces and crosswalks, is of utmost importance. ADA regulations necessitate clear and regularly updated markings in parking lots to adhere to accessibility standards.

  • What does crack sealing do and how does it help your parking lot?

    Crack sealing serves as a vital maintenance measure, aiding in the prevention of water damage, prolonging the lifespan of pavement, and enhancing the overall appearance of your parking lot.

  • When do you know it is time to pave your parking lot?

  • How important is the parking lot to the overall impression that customers have of a store?

    The parking lot plays a crucial role in shaping a customer’s initial impression of a store. A well-maintained and spacious parking area communicates professionalism and convenience, enhancing the overall experience. Conversely, a poorly maintained lot could deter customers before they even step foot inside the store. As the first point of interaction with a business, the parking lot sets the tone for a customer's shopping experience.

  • What are the biggest mistakes retailers make when it comes to having new paving surfaces installed on their properties?

    The initial mistake often lies in the lack of planning for the paving project. Customers must carefully consider drainage and traffic flow factors to ensure successful outcomes. The decision to hire a reputable and experienced paving contractor is equally critical to avoid subpar results. Lastly, neglecting regular maintenance post-installation is a significant oversight. It can significantly shorten the pavement's lifespan and necessitate costly repairs sooner.

  • How can retailers keep their parking lots and other pavement surfaces in good shape?

    Implementing regular maintenance for parking lots—including crack repair, seal coating, and line striping—will not only preserve the pavement but also keep it looking fresh. A consistent maintenance plan can extend the lifespan of a parking lot to 20 years or more, saving customers thousands of dollars.

  • How important is communication when it comes to managing projects?

    Clear and effective communication is crucial for managing projects successfully. It keeps all stakeholders informed about the project's progress, challenges, and any changes to the plan, preventing misunderstandings. Providing daily updates, schedule planning/phasing, and progress photos helps the contractor document the project. It keeps the customer updated, enabling them to report to their superiors on deadlines and progress.
