Why Is Sealcoating For Managed Properties Important?
Managed properties are best maintained with a proactive approach in order to reduce excessive repair costs or even potential liabilities. There is a careful balance to strike between keeping up with proper maintenance and avoiding interference during regular business hours. In this month’s post, we will discuss the importance of sealcoating for managed properties and how to keep an overall proper asphalt maintenance routine.
One of the primary benefits of sealcoating the parking lot for your managed property is to have a protective surface barrier for the asphalt underneath. Sealcoating helps protect the pavement from exposure to oil and gas that may leak from parked vehicles and potentially cause asphalt softening, as well as UV rays which can cause premature degradation of the upper layers of asphalt.
In addition to acting as a protective barrier, sealcoating can help the asphalt of larger parking lots maintain flexibility, helping to resist against cracking due to the constant weight fluctuation from vehicles coming and going as well as the freeze/thaw cycle common here in New England. As an added bonus, the smooth surface of a properly applied sealcoat makes cleaning a breeze. Debris both large or small will not get stuck as easily as it does in unsealed asphalt services, which saves a property manager time and ultimately money.
In order to optimally maintain the sealcoating of your parking lot, it is best practice to have sealcoating for managed properties reapplied every two to five years depending on the level of traffic typically experienced. Properly maintaining a fresh sealcoat will help save you time and money that would otherwise be spent repairing potholes, filling cracks, and performing costly extensive cleaning services.
