Parking Lot Sealcoating

Asphalt Sealcoating: Protect your pavement for pennies or fix it for dollars.

Well, when it comes to pavement maintenance, an ounce of prevention (asphalt sealcoating) is worth a pound of cure (asphalt paving). So instead of waiting until your parking lot is broken down, prevent it from breaking down by performing regular maintenance like sealcoating.

Asphalt Sealcoating as Part of a Pavement Maintenance Plan

For pavement maintenance in San Diego CA, Black Diamond Paving & Concrete is the company locals trust. We don’t just throw down asphalt sealer and call it a day. Our paving experts work with our valued local clients to craft an ongoing pavement maintenance plan that will extend the life of their parking lot or concrete and save money on repair work over time. Here’s how it works.

• Timeline of a Parking Lot

  • First 5 to 10 YearsAs soon as it’s installed, asphalt suffers from oxidation and water penetration, both of which open it up to damage. At the beginning of the parking lot’s life, all it needs (assuming proper asphalt installation in the first place) is replenishing the surface layer. Protection against further weathering is also important.

    For new asphalt, sealcoating replenishes the surface layer and protects against oxidation and moisture penetration.

  • The Next 10 to 15 YearsIf it’s never been sealed, asphalt pavement deteriorates rapidly because air, water, and sunlight leech important oils from the surface, physically break down the asphalt, and wash away exposed aggregates.

    Getting an asphalt sealcoating once every 4 to 7 years can prevent asphalt erosion and deterioration while creating a fresh-looking smooth black surface.

• Improve Your Curb Appeal With Parking Lot Sealcoating

  The main reason many of our California property owners get regular asphalt sealcoating services from Black Diamond Paving is looks. An asphalt sealcoat simply looks good, flowing into all the nooks and crannies in your pavement and giving it a uniform, smooth surface with that dark black look. Though the benefits to your pavement health are undeniable, making sure your commercial pavement looks good is a great reason to get sealcoating.
