It’s important to maintain your parking lot.

Parking lot maintenance is an important responsibility for any business owner or property manager. It’s easy to overlook your parking lot maintenance or procrastinate on making necessary repairs. Many people simply do not know where to begin. Our goal is to make maintaining your parking lot an easy experience for you. We have been helping business owners and property managers all over the Lowcountry maintain their parking lots for decades, and we would love to help you too. Let’s take a look at the top five reasons to maintain your parking lot.

1. Parking lot maintenance improves the appearance of your property.

We all know that first impressions count and curb appeal is important. Your parking lot is often the first thing that your clients or customers see. Your parking lot becomes the first impression of your brand. No one wants a deteriorating parking lot to be the first thing a client sees. Proper parking lot maintains includes repairing any damaged asphalt (such as potholes), applying sealcoating to protect your parking lot’s surface, and painting new lines and directional markings to help your customers navigate your parking lot.

2. Parking lot maintenance improves safety.

A parking lot that is not maintained is more susceptible to asphalt deterioration and potholes. Potholes in your parking lot create a danger to pedestrians and vehicle traffic alike. Directional lines that have been worn away can create driver confusion and accidents. According to the National Safety Council, parking lots are more dangerous than you might think. Maintaining your parking lot helps to keep it a safer environment for your customers.

3. Parking lot maintenance extends the life of your parking lot.

Your parking lot’s asphalt surface really takes a beating. The asphalt is subject to environmental factors such as water erosion, gasoline and oil spills, salt, extreme temperatures and even UV rays that lead to deterioration. This doesn’t even include the wear and tear from vehicle traffic. Maintaining your parking lot with sealcoating creates a layer of protection on your parking lot’s surface. Taking care of any potholes, cracks or deteriorating asphalt as soon as possible prevents the damage from spreading.

4. Maintaining your parking lot improves your customer experience.

When your clients run into potholes in your parking lot or have trouble seeing directional markings, they may be frustrated before ever entering your business. When your parking lot is in top shape, it creates a smooth experience for your customers and leaves them with a pleasant first impression of your property.

5. Maintaining your parking lot saves you money.

When you neglect your parking lot maintenance, small issues can spread into large problems. Sealcoating your parking lot is one of the top ways you can extend the life of your parking lot. We all know that you save money when you keep something well maintained versus neglecting it and having to replace the entire thing. Replacing an entire parking lot could be very costly. It is much easier and budget friendly to repair problems before they become too large.
