What is the Best Asphalt Preventative Maintenance?

asphalt-preventative-maintenance

Whether your asphalt parking lot or residential driveway, asphalt preventative maintenance is necessary to prevent long-term, and very costly, damage. Enjoy a smooth driveway for decades to come with these simple steps.

Clean, Clean, Clean

One the of the key components of good asphalt preventative maintenance involves keeping the driveway or parking clean. That means removing any oil stains and debris. Letting garbage, fuel, or even leaves pile up and accumulate on your asphalt can result in both permanent stains and damage. Some stains like oil and fuel can cause deterioration to your driveway or parking lot. Garbage left to rot will leave behind dark shadowy stains that are almost impossible to remove without a professional.

If you don’t know how to clean your asphalt, here are a few tips. Pick up any garbage immediately, especially piles of garbage or leaves. Use a hose for rinsing away smaller debris. Believe it or not, kitty litter will pick up liquids like oil. Pour the kitty litter over the stain and wait overnight. Then spray with a hose to see your good-as-new driveway. Surprisingly enough, Coke is another popular cleaning solution for removing tough stains on asphalt.

Repair Potholes

Unsightly potholes are more than an ugly nuisance. They are a safety hazard, can cause damage to vehicles, and may lead to long-term damage that can deteriorate the asphalt irreparably. Many smaller postholes can be repaired easily. Call professional pavers for an estimate for pothole repair.

Sealcoating

Finally, after cleaning your asphalt driveway, removing stains, and repairing any potholes, apply sealcoating to create a protective layer over the asphalt. This will seal against future stains, water, and even the sun’s damaging rays. Reduce long-term costs by properly maintaining your asphalt driveway or parking lot.
