Well would you look at that parking lot. That looks like a well-maintained parking lot.
After that terrible snowstorm last week, there are a lot of searches on the Internet for parking lot maintenance tips and asphalt care. As long as you take care of any problems now and follow through with a parking lot maintenance plan, your lot will be in good shape for the whole year. Let’s take a look at the most important steps in getting started.
Fill Up Parking Lot Cracks Immediately
If you have a crack in your parking lot, don’t wait to get it filled. Cracks are destructive because not only can they cause vehicles damage, but also they can ruin your parking lot by expanding. As soon as you see a crack in your asphalt, it’s better to get it taken care of as soon as possible than to put it off and wait. And with more snowstorms potentially on the way, this should be on the top of your parking lot maintenance list.
Keep Parking Lot Clear
For proper asphalt care, make sure that you keep your parking lot clear of debris. Debris can build up and block drainage outlets, causing your parking lot to flood and damage to the asphalt to occur. Part of a regular parking maintenance routine should be checking to make sure that all drainage outlets are clear and debris won’t causes blockages.
Sealcoating Parking Lots
If it has been a few years since you last sealcoated your parking lot, you should try to schedule one when the winter season is over. Sealcoating slows down the natural breakdown of materials. It also prevents debris, water and other elements from fully breaking down your asphalt. Daily use and the climate will determine how long the sealcoating lasts, but it is a necessity to have it done to keep your parking lot from prematurely breaking down.
