One particular target market, churches, require many of the services Parking Lot Services Nearby provide, such as optimizing space allocation, handicap space (blue) coloring and signage, visitor/guest parking designation, arrows and traffic inhibiting devices, otherwise known as speed bumps, breakers and bumper blocks, sealcoating and striping. Some asphalt repairs and patches are also common for budgets that cannot justify whole-lot sealcoat protection.
Sealcoating is a protective barrier applied to asphalt surfaces where the asphalt may have shown signs of cracking, excessive patching and/or surface abnormalities. Often, the harmful effects of heat and cold, heavy traffic and heavy vehicles, such as tractor trailers and road equipment, all take a toll on asphalt causing it to break down and lose its ability to avoid crumbling and potholes. Sealcoating has been proven to double, in some cases triple, the life of an asphalt surface if done every 3-4 years as recommended.
