It’s time for property managers to begin planning for paving projects in 2018!
Now is the perfect time for property managers to begin planning for paving projects in 2018. There are a lot of moving pieces and questions to be asked when planning: is there a brand new area that needs to be paved? Does an existing paved area need to be re-striped or sealed? Can any of these projects be pushed back a year, or is it imperative to fix this year? That is why seeking professional pavement contractor services can be vital to your project planning.
Have a Consultation and Develop your Strategy
A consultation with a professional will shed light on your existing infrastructure and guide your focus on what is imperative to fix or build. They will also run tests, which may include asphalt core testing to determine pavement thickness, drainage, the integrity of the soil underneath and the bond between layers of pavement. The contractor will also work with you to strategize the best possible method for preserving your projects.
Plan your Budget
Based on your needs, establishing a budget is critical to which projects will be taken care of in 2018 or what will be pushed back for a different year. In condo communities or communities where residents pay dues, it is of critical importance to not overspend the budget. A contractor will do everything they can to work within the confines of your budget.
As a member of the Community Association Institute (CAI), National Facilities Management and Technology (NFMT), and Maryland Multi-Housing Association (MMHA) we are well-positioned to help you make the right financial decisions for your property or community association. We will work with you to develop a comprehensive strategy to extend and maximize the lifespan of your asphalt and concrete surfaces.
Set a Maintenance Schedule
The key to a successful pavement project is to protect your investment and pre-schedule preventative maintenance like sealcoating and minor repair work. This will ensure the longevity of your project.
Plan for Site Inspections and Repairs
Annual site inspections help by catching minor problems before they turn into a major headache. Early spring is the best time to conduct an inspection and proper planning now will ensure you get an appointment at the time that’s best for you.
