In the heart of Bethlehem, PA—just minutes from the SteelStacks and historic Main Street—a local commercial property got a much-needed pavement upgrade thanks to our team at ProSeal Asphalt Maintenance Inc.
The lot was showing signs of wear after years of heavy traffic and Northeast PA weather. Between faded line striping, uneven pavement, and safety compliance concerns, the property owner knew it was time to call in a professional crew.
We were happy to help bring this Bethlehem parking lot back to life—and make it safer and more accessible for employees and visitors alike.
A Full-Scope Commercial Lot Revitalization in Bethlehem, PA
This project required more than just a surface fix. The client was dealing with worn pavement, loose debris, faded ADA markings, and outdated signage—big issues that aren’t just cosmetic.
In a high-traffic city like Bethlehem, where snow, salt, and rain take a toll on asphalt year-round, ongoing maintenance is key to preventing liability and preserving property value.
Our commercial concrete paving team tackled this Bethlehem lot with a full-service approach to ensure long-lasting results.
Step-by-Step: Professional Parking Lot Maintenance Done Right
We followed a detailed process to ensure every square inch of this surface was properly treated and ready for heavy use:
Power Sweeping
We began by power sweeping all debris from the surface area, removing dirt, gravel, and vegetation to ensure clean, even adhesion.
Tack Coat Application
Once cleared, we applied a tack coat to the surface, which acts like glue between old and new asphalt layers—critical for bonding and long-term durability.
New Asphalt Installation
Approximately 2.5 inches of 9.5mm asphalt was installed and compacted, providing a strong, smooth new driving surface that can stand up to Bethlehem’s freeze-thaw cycles and vehicle wear.
Edge Finishing
All exposed edges were hand-tamped for a clean, uniform look and to prevent future crumbling or separation.
Joint Sealing
We sealed all tie-in joints with hot asphaltic material to prevent water intrusion and future cracking—especially important for our Pennsylvania climate, where water expansion is a real issue.
Clear Markings & ADA Compliance: Line Painting and Signage
After the asphalt work was complete, we brought the lot up to full ADA standards and refreshed all directional and visitor signage:
- Painted 9 ADA stalls with logos over background for clear identification
- Installed 9 new handicap signs and posts for visibility and compliance
- Added 1 Van Accessible gore strip for expanded accessibility
- Marked 4 regular stalls as “Visitor” to direct traffic flow for guests
The final result? A clean, compliant, and professional-looking lot that’s easy to navigate and built to last.
