You are finally done for the day. You turn off the computer, hit the light switch, lock your office door and begin to make your way to the front door. You take one step out of the door and there it is…a crack in the asphalt. Oh no! What do you do? Do you panic? Why is this happening?
First of all, take a deep breathe. Asphalt is not indestructible. In fact, asphalt surfaces begin to deteriorate as soon as they are first paved. The good news is that with regular maintenance, your parking lot will last 15-20 years. However, there will come a time when it needs to be replaced.
The Milling and Paving Process
Milling and paving is one of the most cost effective ways to repair damaged parking lots or roadways. The process begins with milling, the removal of deteriorated asphalt down to a specific depth to make room for a new asphalt surface. The milling process grinds up the existing asphalt (millings) so it can be shipped off site and easily recycled. The newly milled surface is then layered with tack to prepare it for re-paving.
Viola! You have a new parking lot!

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) prohibits the discrimination persons with disabilities, ensuring equal opportunity in employment, State and local government services, public accommodations, commercial facilities, and transportation. So what does this have to do with your parking lot and commercial facility? Well, Title III of the Act guarantees persons with disabilities are provided accommodations and access equal to, or similar to, the general public into commercial facilities and areas of public accommodation.
ADA, Title III Guidelines
- Facilities that provide goods or services directly to the public be required to remove architectural barriers in existing buildings, and must make sure that newly built or altered facilities are constructed to be accessible.
- Small businesses with very limited parking (four or fewer spaces) must have one accessible parking space; though no new signage is required.
- Medium-Large Businesses must have non-van accessible parking stalls measuring 8’ wide with a 60″ aisle. For van-accessible parking, the van parking stall should be 11’, with a 60″ access isle. Plus, disabled parking signs are required on all accessible parking spaces, and should be easily visible, a minimum of 60″ off the ground.
- And more.
For additional information on the Americans with Disabilities Act, please visit http://www.ada.gov/.
Failure to comply with ADA, Title III can result in civil law suits with penalties of up to $100,000 imposed per offense. Don’t take that chance.

When it comes to your concrete, whether it is a driveway, sidewalk, or parking lot, it will eventually crack. That is just life. Even the best concrete cracks eventually. The key to concrete longevity is to address these cracks as they happen…before they get out of control.
Remember the old adage, “a stitch in time saves nine?” Well, the same holds true for concrete. Addressing a small crack when it happens is much easier and much more cost-effective than trying to fix larger or multiple cracks.
When your concrete pavement begins to show signs of wear and tear, you need the help of an expert. So call the concrete experts at PTG Enterprises before that small crack becomes a major issue. Our crews are the best available and they use only the best materials and equipment around.
Concrete Cracking FAQs
- What Causes Concrete Cracking? Well, there is no one answer. Cracking is typically the result of several factors, including drying shrinkage, thermal contraction, restraint (external or internal) to shortening, subgrade settlement, and applied loads.
- Can Concrete Cracking be prevented? Yes and no. With proper concrete maintenance, concrete longevity can be increased, but eventually all concretes will crack.
- All Concrete Contractors are the same, right? No! Just as in any profession, there are good and bad concrete contractors. And if you choose a bad contractor, your concrete could fail quicker than normal. Improper installation is one of the number one causes of concrete failure.
Do yourself a favor and call PTG Enterprises for all of your concrete needs, both installation and repair. PTG Enterprises are experts with commercial concrete jobs. We work closely with you to ensure the details of the project are fully understood, and that timetables are met.
Our crews are extremely familiar with all types of concrete paving, so you know the job will look professional and last for years to come.

As a business owner, have you ever wanted to improve the aesthetics of your storefront, but you just do not have the room on your building to add a new sign? Well, have you ever considered asphalt artwork?
Your Parking Lot is a Blank Canvas!
So why be normal when you can be extraordinary? Regardless of how well the excavation, grading, concrete installs, stone placement and asphalt was laid, what’s going to stand out to the average passerby is a brand new logo painted against the fresh black asphalt. It will give your parking lot a “WOW” factor that will set your storefront apart from the competition.
Adding your logo or other artwork to your parking lot can be beneficial in several ways, including:
- Curb Appeal: You will be amazed at how much a parking lot painting will add to the curb appeal of your business.
- Make an Impression: A custom logo will leave your customers with a lasting impression of your company.
- And More!
Case Study: A Harley Davidson Dealership adds a Parking Lot Logo
When Dan Miller stood in front of Steve Solomon’s Morgantown, WV, Harley Davidson dealership, he saw possibility. Miller, whose business Miller Maintenance Services, LLC is just down the road in Fairmount, had been called in to do the seal coating on the newly paved 30,000 square foot parking lot.
“We were standing outside,” Miller recalls, “and I said, ‘you know, they make stencils that you can put on the pavement. That would look great with the Harley Davidson logo or maybe your company logo and have it stenciled right on the pavement.’”
The owner was intrigued so Miller made a few phone calls.
“The people I was talking to up there the other day said it was a really nice piece that just set off the building. And the building is a really nice building anyway,” said Miller.
Asphalt Parking Lot Painting Services from PTG Enterprises
Performing this type of work is much different than just re-striping an old lot. In most cases, there is a detailed architectural rendering of what the finished parking lot looks like. These drawings show measurements of such things as: drive lanes, stall widths, size of hash outs, even in some case the thickness of the paint line itself.
There is only one shot to get this right because it is virtually impossible to remove paint from asphalt. So doesn’t it make sense to trust your parking lot to a professional, like PTG Enterprises? Patrick Gillen, PTG Enterprises owner, has personally managed hundreds of these projects and has the experience you need.
When you hire PTG, you’ll work with Patrick from start to finish!

The decision to sealcoat an asphalt surface is an easy one. After all, the cost of sealcoating is only pennies a square yard versus repairs and rehabilitation, which can be as much as twenty times higher. What does confuse many business owners and property managers is the amount of sealer needed.
The more the merrier, right? Well, no.
Bigger is not always better. And the same goes for thickness…especially when talking about sealcoating. When it comes to the application of sealer, thicker is definitely not better. Sealer is not meant to be applied in thick patches.
Disadvantages of Thick Sealer
- Thick coats don’t cure evenly
- They are prone to tracking and can lead to surface cracks
- A thicker coat takes longer to cure, which can lead to degradation
- Thicker coats will reduce the life of your sealcoating
A thick sealcoating will not provide your parking lot with more protection. It actually has the opposite effect. Sealer manufacturers set specific mix designs for their product; when these specifications are not adhered to, the product will not perform as intended.
One of the easiest ways to tell if a parking lot has been over-sealed is if the lot has no texture. An asphalt parking lot should never look smooth, the texture of the below asphalt should be visible.
Avoid the typical more is better thinking —with sealer, thicker is not better!

The asphalt experts here have managed hundreds of pavement projects and have the experience you need.
“There are many different sealcoating options available to property managers and owners today than there were when I started in the Industry,” said PTG Enterprises owner Patrick T. Gillen III. “This works to the advantage of the property and to the pavement. Now, depending on the current condition of the asphalt, I have the ability to recommend several different options depending on the condition of the lot, previous maintenance schedules and budgets.”

Asphalt is the most versatile pavement material, with mixes designed to handle any size load (from passenger cars to heavy trucks), absorb noise, reduce splash and spray during rainstorms, and even to help treat rainwater. The different types of asphalt pavement include:
Warm-Mix Asphalt: This is the generic name of the technology that allows producers of hot-mix asphalt to lower the temperatures at which the material is mixed and placed on the road. This afford asphalt contractors many benefits, including:
• Increasing safety for asphalt workers
• Cutting fuel consumption
• Decreasing the production of greenhouse gases
• Better compaction of pavements
• Extending the paving season
• And the potential to be able to recycle at higher rates
Quiet Pavement: Today’s busy world is filled with more noise than one typically cares to deal with. But quiet pavement actually reduces the noise experienced both inside and outside homes and businesses. Resurfacing a noisy road with stone-matrix asphalt (SMA) or open-graded friction course (OGFC) mix can reduce noise by 3 to 5 dB(A) or more (the same as doubling the distance between you and the noise source).
Porous Asphalt: These pavement surfaces allow rainwater to drain through the asphalt into a stone recharge bed and then into the soil, eliminating potentially harmful standing water.
Perpetual Pavement: This advanced, multi-layer paving design process (along with routine asphalt maintenance) extends the useful life of a roadway.
Whether on the road, in a parking lot, or at an airport, asphalt pavements add up to the best value for your pavement needs, with the lowest life cycle cost and the highest residual value.
If you have any further questions, contact an experienced asphalt company today – a company like PTG Enterprises. The asphalt experts here have managed hundreds of pavement projects and have the experience you need. So contact PTG Enterprises aka My Pavement Guy today by calling 410-636-8777 or click here today!

A clean parking lot says a lot about your business. It says you care about the little things. It gives your customers/clients that extra sense of calm knowing that you will take care of them the same way you take care of your parking lot.
Seems crazy, doesn’t it. Well, it is not far from the truth.
Like the cover of a book, the exterior of your building and your parking lot are what your customers base their first opinions on. I know, I know…don’t judge a book by its cover. Well, guess what? People still do. That is just the way it is. And you only get to make one first impression, so it is important to make it a good one. After all, who wants to lose business because their parking lot is a mess? So if you find an oil stain on your parking surface, act quickly.
Here are 10 unique ways to remove oil stains from asphalt surfaces:
1. Soap and Water: If you come across a fresh oil spot, emulsify it with a mixture of liquid soap and water. This will keep the oil from drying and staining the asphalt. The soap surrounds small droplets of grease and does not allow it to congeal into a solid.
This will not remove the oil all together, but it will make complete stain removal significantly easier.
2. Kitty Litter: First mop up any excess oil. Then cover the oil stain with a bag of kitty litter. Begin stomping on the kitty litter (this will help absorb the oil). Leave the kitty litter out overnight. Then come back the next morning and scoop up the kitty litter and dispose of the waste. Remember, the kitty litter now contains oil, making it a bihazardous material.
Kitty litter is effective method on wet areas, not on established oil stains.
3. Baking Soda: Baking soda is great for absorbing excess oil. Sprinkle baking soda onto the oil stain and scrub with a stiff brush. Allow the baking soda to sit for a half hour and then rinse it away with a hose.
Once again, this method is only effective with fresh oil spills.
4. Coca-Cola: No, not because getting rid of an oil stain works up a thirst! Coke can actually be used to remove oil stains. First, wipe up any excess oil. Next, pour a couple cans worth of coke onto an oil stain and allow the soda to sit overnight. Then clean the area with a clean cloth.
While this is not the MOST effective method to remove oil stains, it is economical. So why not give it a shot before moving on to more expensive solutions.
5. Steam Pressure Washing: The heat of the steam will liquefy the oil as the pressure whisks it away.
This is one of the most effective methods of removing oil stains!
6. Tri-Sodium Phosphate (TSP): This substance can be quite dangerous, so use caution.
First, make a paste using TSP and water. Then scrub the paste onto the oil stain with a scrub brush. Let the paste sit for thirty minutes to absorb the oil and then rinse it away.
7. Laundry Detergent: Sprinkle the powdered laundry detergent onto the stain, add water, scrub with a stiff brush and then let the solution sit for at least 30 minutes. Then, wipe the surface clean!
8. Commercial Degreasers: Commercial degreasers for asphalt surfaces work by breaking down the oil into a bio-degradable substance that is safe for the environment and your driveway.
9. Muriatic Acid: Muriatic acid should be a last resort as it will harm your skin and eyes. Wear protective eyewear and gloves when using this substance.
Mix a mild solution and allow it to sit for about a minute. Then rinse with a pressure washer.
10. Sealcoating: If you come across a stain that seem impossible to remove, asphalt sealer may be your best option. Cover your parking lot with a fresh seal coat and move on.
If you have any questions, then contact an experienced asphalt company today – a company like PTG Enterprises. The asphalt experts here have managed hundreds of pavement projects and have the experience you need. So contact PTG Enterprises aka My Pavement Guy today by calling 410-636-8777 or click here today!

Asphalt parking lot maintenance is important. But of all the precautions you can take to ensure your parking surface lasts for a long time, sealcoating is perhaps the most important. If applied properly and at the right time, sealcoating provides the following benefits:
Slows Oxidation and Water Penetration: Over exposure to oxygen will harden asphalt binders, resulting in brittle pavement prone to cracking. And cracking allows water to seep into the asphalt sub base, further weakening the entire parking surface. This leads to more cracks, potholes, and eventual total parking lot failure.
Sealcoats fill surface voids, reducing exposure to oxygen and water and prolonging pavement life.
Protects Pavement Against Ultraviolet Rays: The sun’s rays can break the links between carbon bonds and your asphalt. Sealcoat prevent ultraviolet rays from further damaging the asphalt pavement.
Protects Against Spills: Gas and oil spills can soften asphalt, making it more susceptible to other damage. Sealcoating reduces the depth to which oil or gas can penetrate.
Easy to Clean Pavement: Sealcoating results in a smooth, even texture allowing for much easier cleaning.
Increased Pavement Flexibility: Sealcoating keeps your parking lot black. This attracts more heat from the sun, which, in turn, makes your parking surface more pliable and increasingly able it is to withstand traffic volume changes without cracking.
Beauty: Well, this one is a given.
Cost Effective: It is far less expensive to sealcoat your parking lot every few years than it would be to overlay or completely replace your parking surface.
If you have any questions, contact an experienced asphalt company today – a company like PTG Enterprises. The asphalt experts here have managed hundreds of pavement sealcoat projects and have the experience you need. So contact PTG Enterprises aka My Pavement Guy today by calling 410-636-8777 or click here today!
