Whether you have an asphalt parking lot or driveway, you want to do whatever you can to ensure its longevity. Disregarding the asphalt will slowly erode it away and lead to expensive repairs. Here are four asphalt maintenance tips from the experts


Tip 1: Fix Pot Holes Right Away

Potholes naturally form when water seeps into the ground and under the pavement. If you spot a pothole, you want to fix it right away. Potholes that are neglected will get bigger very quickly with use, exposure to water, and changing temperatures. Potholes can be repaired by yourself fairly easily, but if you need help, you can turn to a Calgary paving company for help.


Tip 2: Seal Cracks Right Away

The same idea applies to cracks. Many people tend to ignore small cracks because it doesn't seem like it would pose much of a problem. But temperature changes, moisture, and usage will expand and contract the cracks even further. A small crack can quickly extend itself to a big one if given sufficient time. You want to make sure you seal the cracks with sealant right away.

Tip 3: Invest in Sealcoating

One of the best things you can do for your asphalt is to invest in seal coating. This is basically applying a protective coating to protect the asphalt. This should be done on a regular basis if you want to properly maintain the asphalt. Not only does this expand the lifespan of your asphalt, but it also creates a refreshed look. You should talk to your local Calgary paving company for seal coating services.


Tip 4: Clean the Asphalt Regularly

Cleaning the asphalt is an important part of maintaining its longevity. Debris, leaves, oil, and other elements can stick to the surface of the asphalt and wear it away over time. You need to be proactive about cleaning the surface on a regular basis. If you're managing a large parking lot then you can undergo cleaning in sections.


These four asphalt maintenance tips will help you maintain your asphalt for a long time. Most of these tips are fairly simple but will go a long way in helping you save money. Having to remove the old layer of asphalt and install a new one is far more expensive than spending some time and money to maintain it properly.
