  1. Why Your Parking Lot Needs Asphalt Sealant

  2. The visual appeal of a parking lot and the entrance to any business are greatly improved with asphalt sealer. Driving into a parking lot that has recently had a fresh coat of asphalt sealer sprayed provides the impression that the establishment is clean and well-kept. But sealcoating accomplishes more than that! A parking lot's surface is shielded from the elements and deterioration by asphalt sealcoating.

  3. Asphalt pavement is more forgiving than concrete because of its malleable surface. Tractor tyres and other large vehicles making fast turns can cause modest scarring over the first few years, especially on hot, bright days, even though it takes years for the damage to entirely heal. Although these dents do not always compromise the pavement's structural soundness, you should watch out for cracks. Asphalt cracks may be a sign of a significant problem.

  4. Water & Asphalt Cracks If you start to see asphalt cracks on the surface of your parking lot, they require further inspection. Asphalt is harmed when water seeps through fractures and into the surface. Water constantly wears down asphalt as it flows across a parking lot, eroding away the smaller bits. The foundation erosion that results from this erosion is a significant issue. If a little fracture is allowed to be infiltrated by water, it will eventually grow into a pothole and cost a lot to fix.

  5. Initial Line of Defense A new asphalt parking lot should be sealed with high-grade, commercial-grade asphalt sealer after the surface has had time to dry, which will take roughly 90 days. Two years after the initial sealcoating is a fair guideline for when to reapply another layer of asphalt sealer. Several variables, like the weather, the amount of wear and tear from traffic, and other environmental concerns, may cause this time frame to fluctuate slightly. In general, sealcoating should be done when the asphalt's surface starts to fade.

  6. Sealcoating accomplishes exactly what it should. The parking lot's surface is sealed. Once sealed, water will not soak into the substructure but will instead roll off your pavement.

  7. The Best Care Should Be Taken with Asphalt Parking Lots With the intense sun in Burlington, asphalt sealer will quickly dry. Quick drying chemicals can be utilized in specific areas to shorten drying times. However, in most cases, normal driving patterns can recover in twelve hours. For a commercial facility, installing an asphalt surface can be quite an investment. For asphalt sealing in Burlington, sealer just makes financial sense to protect such an investment.
