Sealcoating is an essential investment for property owners with a parking lot. It can save money in the long run by preventing costly repairs and extending the life of the asphalt surface. Business owners and property managers in Long Island trust Stasi Brothers for their pavement sealing and asphalt restoration needs.
Four Reasons You Need Parking Lot Sealcoating
Slows Oxidation
First, sealcoating protects the surface from oxidation, which can cause the surface to fade and turn gray, making it less attractive. The sealant creates a protective barrier that shields pavement from the sun’s UV rays, slowing the oxidation process and keeping the asphalt looking fresh and new.
-
Prevents Moisture Damage
Moisture can cause the pavement to deteriorate rapidly by breaking down binders and exposing aggregates, leading to cracks and potholes. A sealcoat provides a waterproof layer that prevents water from seeping into the asphalt and damaging the foundation.
-
Makes Asphalt Last Longer
A properly maintained parking lot can last decades, but paying attention to it can cause premature deterioration and expensive repairs. A pavement sealant can help prolong your parking lot’s life with regular maintenance like power sweeping and crack filling.
-
Improves Safety
Finally, sealcoating can improve the safety of your commercial pavement. A smooth and well-maintained surface reduces the risk of accidents and injuries caused by uneven surfaces or debris. The sealant also provides increased traction.
The Stasi Brothers Sealcoating Process
We’ll perform any necessary repairs and thoroughly clean the pavement to prepare for parking lot maintenance. Next, the sealant is spread using sprayers and squeegees. Sealants should be applied during clear weather conditions and at the appropriate temperature. After application, the surface should dry and cure for at least 24-36 hours without traffic. Sprinklers should not be used in the area 48 hours before and after the work is completed.
