Enjoy smooth asphalt parking lots and driveways at your\nprofessional building all year with proper maintenance. Asphalt is a quality\noption for parking lots that experience heavy use, but this material can be\naffected by a number of seasonal maintenance issues. Learn how to spot signs of\ndamage and receive professional maintenance to keep your business open all year\nlong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most cracks and potholes are formed by excess moisture. Your\nasphalt parking lot or drive has a coat of sealant that protects it from\nmoisture, but this coating needs to be renewed after a few years. If you\nhaven\u2019t added another layer of sealant on your asphalt in the past few years,\nrain can seep into your asphalt and foundation and form deep, dangerous cracks.\nCracks can be expensive to repair, particularly if they affect the foundation,\nso it\u2019s important to receive proper sealcoating services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Summer doesn\u2019t give you a reprieve from asphalt maintenance.\nHigh temperatures and long, sunny days can warm up the asphalt and soften it.\nThis can also increase the risk of cracks and potholes. Proper summer\nmaintenance includes visual inspections and patches to prevent smaller potholes\nfrom growing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cold temperatures and heavy snowfall can cause a number of issues with asphalt. First, snow can warm up on asphalt and create pools of water and slush. As the temperatures drop, this excess water freezes and expands. Improper salt and deicing techniques are also responsible for cracks and compromised coating. Winter is the most important time to stay on top of professional maintenance and repairs for your asphalt driveway or parking lot at your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
