As a building owner or property manager, you have a lot on your plate. And this winter has been a harsh one. The constant freezing and thawing has wreaked havoc on your parking lot and sidewalks.

“Any time you have weather where it is 60 degrees one day and 20 degrees the next, you’re going to have a significant impact on the pavement,” warns Rob Morosi, spokesman for the Michigan Department of Transportation.

When water penetrates cracks in your pavement, it freezes, expands, and widens these cracks. This happens numerous times over the course of a winter, worsening cracks, degrading your pavement from the inside out. Unfortunately, there is very little you can do to prevent this until spring. But that doesn’t mean you can’t plan ahead.

Start Planning Spring Commercial Concrete Projects

Winter is the perfect time to start planning for spring projects for several reasons, including:

1. Winter is the slow time for most commercial concrete contractors. This means winter is the perfect time to book your project, before demand increases with the temperature.
2. Safety and liability are some more reasons to plan your commercial concrete project now. “All Maryland businesses, corporations, employers and business owners have a legal obligation and responsibility to properly maintain all areas of their property,” explains one Baltimore, Maryland lawyer. “This includes parking lots, driveways and sidewalks.”
3. Finally, aesthetic appeal. According to Business Insider, it takes just 0.1 seconds for a stranger to form a lasting impression of your business. Don’t let a disheveled sidewalk give potential customers a bad first impression.
4. And more!
