A driveway or parking lot is visible from the road and can offer a good or bad impression depending on its condition. Cracks, potholes, and standing water are unsightly to look at. The best way to turn a customer away from a business is to have a parking lot that doesn’t appear safe or maintained. An asphalt driveway at home can improve the value of the property and reduces dust and dirt entering a home or garage. An Asphalt Paving Service Bellingham WA can improve the look of a home or business with proper maintenance, repair or installation of new asphalt.
Sealing minor cracks is necessary to prevent asphalt from crumbling. Asphalt is a combination of rock, stone, gravel and a binder. The binder is made of certain crude oils and must be maintained to prevent the deterioration of the asphalt. UV rays, rain and chemical will break down the binder and cause the asphalt to crumble. Sealcoating the asphalt on regular intervals can extend the life of the asphalt. Sealcoating provides a layer of protection that will block the damaging elements. Oil, gas and other substances that can leak from a vehicle should be properly cleaned before sealcoating occurs.
Maintenance by an Asphalt Paving Service Bellingham WA is the best choice to protect your investment. Small cracks around drains or curbs require a different type of sealing product than other areas of a parking lot or driveway. Failure to apply the sealants correctly or sufficiently will result in the asphalt’s rapid deterioration. After sealing occurs in a parking lot, the lines should be repainted. An asphalt company can perform this service when the sealing is completed. Lines in a parking lot or shopping center are often overlooked by owners. Clear and visible lines can eliminate accidents in a parking lot and maximizes the parking area.
