If you own or manage a commercial property, you know that maintaining your parking lot and other paved surfaces is crucial to ensuring the safety and appearance of your property. One way to protect and enhance your pavement is through sealcoating. Sealcoating your parking lot every 3-4 years will help increase the life span of your parking lot and lower the total cost of ownership.
You should consider sealcoating your commercial parking lot for several compelling reasons.
Firstly, sealcoating can help to enhance the appearance of your property. A freshly seal coated parking lot looks clean, well-maintained, and professional, which can create a positive first impression for customers, clients, and visitors.
Secondly, sealcoating can help to protect your parking lot from damage caused by UV rays, water, and chemicals. Over time, these elements can cause your pavement to crack, fade, and deteriorate, leading to costly repairs and replacements.
Finally, sealcoating can help to prevent cracks and potholes from forming in your parking lot. Sealing the pavement’s surface, sealcoating can prevent water from seeping into the base layer of the pavement. The freeze-thaw cycle in Wisconsin can cause your pavement to fail when the base is saturated with water. This leads to potholes, alligator cracking and other issues.
Overall, sealcoating your commercial parking lot is a smart investment that can save you time and money in the long run while also improving the appearance and safety of your property.
If your lot was paved in the last 6 months, no, you should not have it seal-coated. Asphalt needs to cure before applying any coating. Asphalt slowly changes from black to a grayish color, this is the asphalt slowly losing its oils due to oxidation. Sealing your lot too early will cause the oil from the asphalt to mix with the new sealer, potentially causing the sealer to crack and flake.
Different products and the weather will determine the drying time of sealcoating. If it’s a hot day with low humidity, the coating will dry faster verse an overcast day with high humidity. Typically, your parking lot will be ready to use in 24-48 hours. A good rule of thumb is if the coating looks wet, then it probably is wet.
