Signs Your Parking Lot Needs Repair
Knowing the signs of pavement damage helps you know when it’s time to call in the experts. Our team at Encore Pavement will take care of any common asphalt parking lot repairs, including:
- Faded Surface Color
The top layer of your parking lot should be one consistent color across the lot. If you notice faded spots, this could mean the top layer of materials has oxidized with the air, which can leave your parking lot vulnerable to water damage and cracks.
- Potholes and Sunken Areas
These divots in your parking lot are commonly caused by water seeping into the soil underneath and causing the pavement to shift. Repairing these issues quickly keeps your parking lot even and prevents tripping hazards for pedestrians.
- Cracks/Alligator Cracks
Cracks that spiderweb across your parking lot can let water leak in and cause further damage.
- Age
With routine sealcoating services every 4 to 5 years, your parking lot can last for years to come. If you can’t remember the last time you did maintenance on your pavement, now may be the time to do so.
