A well-maintained parking lot speaks volumes about a business’s professionalism and attention to detail. Over time, asphalt surfaces deteriorate due to traffic, weather, and daily wear, making maintenance essential to preserve appearance and functionality.
Recently, ProSeal Asphalt Maintenance Inc. had the opportunity to restore the parking lot at Gerhart Financial Services in Lebanon, PA, providing a fresh, well-protected surface through expert sealcoating, crack sealing, and line striping.
Restoring and Protecting Lebanon’s Commercial Pavement
The Gerhart Financial Services parking lot, located in the heart of Lebanon, had begun to show signs of aging. Faded asphalt, visible cracks, and worn-out line markings made navigation difficult for customers and employees alike.
In Lebanon, the seasonal freeze-thaw cycles and warm summer sun offer an excellent opportunity for proactive pavement maintenance. By sealing pavement, you can prevent deterioration and avoid repairs, confirming long-lasting durability.
To restore and protect the lot, our team at ProSeal Asphalt Maintenance Inc. carried out a thorough sealcoating service, sealing 5,706 square feet of pavement, repairing 632 feet of cracks, and applying fresh striping.
This included 13 parking lines, 4.5 middle lines, and 1 access aisle for ADA compliance, along with expert parking lot paving to enhance both functionality and appearance.
The Process: Sealcoating, Crack Repair & Line Striping
To guarantee long-lasting results, we followed a strategic process designed to maximize durability and improve the lot’s overall appearance:
1. Surface Preparation
A clean surface is key to proper sealcoating and crack filling. Our crew began by power sweeping and removing debris to create a smooth, ready-to-seal base.
2. Crack Sealing for Long-Term Protection
Cracks are more than just an eyesore—they allow water to seep into the pavement, leading to deeper damage. We sealed 632 feet of cracks using a durable, weather-resistant sealant that prevents further deterioration.
3. Professional Sealcoating Application
We applied a premium coal tar-based sealant, designed to protect the asphalt from UV rays, chemicals, and moisture damage. This not only extends the life of the pavement but also restores its rich black color, enhancing curb appeal.
4. Precise Line Striping for Safety & Accessibility
Clear parking lot striping is crucial for efficient traffic flow and regulatory compliance. We completed 13 bright, high-visibility stripes, including 4.5 middle stripes and 1 designated access aisle, ensuring adherence to ADA regulations while optimizing parking efficiency.
The Results: A Safer, More Professional Parking Lot
The transformation was immediate and impressive (not our words!). The once-faded lot now boasts a smooth, jet-black surface, crisp parking lines, and reinforced crack protection. This not only enhances the curb appeal of Gerhart Financial Services but also improves safety and navigation for customers and employees.
The team at Gerhart Financial Services was thrilled with the results:
“The difference is night and day,” said the office manager. “The fresh sealcoating makes our business look more professional, and the new striping improves parking efficiency. We’re very pleased with the work done by ProSeal.”
