An asphalt parking lot can last up to 20 years, but that is only with proper preventive maintenance.
Unfortunately, you can start to notice cracks as early as three years into the life span of your pavement! Damage is inevitable, but timely repairs and crackfills boost the longevity of your pavement. How can preventive maintenance protect your Baltimore pavements?
Address Damage Quickly
You can’t just wake up and the cracks in your pavement will magically disappear. The damage can actually grow worse the longer you wait. Crackfills seal the cracks to prevent any further damage to the pavement. Also, crackfills help to prevent water penetration, which can erode the structure of the pavement. Continuous water damage will cause cracks, potholes and premature pavement failure. With regular maintenance and addressing problems as they occur, however, you will be able to protect your pavement and help to extend its longevity.
Sealcoating
Asphalt will take a beating from gas, oil, salt and just the weather in general. Sealcoating helps to block water from infiltrating into your asphalt. The sealcoat is a thin layer of liquid, which is added to the paved surface. Protecting the surface of your asphalt will help prevent premature failure and base damage.
Crackfills
Crackfills can occur at any point, so a common misconception is that potholes and cracks only form after the winter. While it’s true that pavement issues can become exacerbated during the winter months, you still may find the need to hire a professional and trustworthy pavement service. Sometimes it’s difficult to identify the right solution for fixing cracks and potholes, but PTG Enterprises prides itself on providing the right solutions for each and every customer.
Don’t except guesswork when it comes to crackfills. Only accept the best!
