Why It’s Actually a Smart Time to Pave Your Parking Lot

Try These Easy Ways to Dress Your Business for Success

To avoid costly repair and liability issues, a property manager’s, facilities manager’s and business owner’s exterior maintenance plan should include regular audits of all the property’s sewer drains and utility holes. Sewer drains and manholes can be found in parking lots, basements, backyards and alleys and with proper maintenance, may last a lifetime. Even with long-lasting characteristics, exposure to outdoor elements plays a role in the lifespan of drains and manholes that are both susceptible to deterioration.

Keeping your parking lot clean is just good business. Did you know? Studies show that a business’ external cleanliness is one of the top decision-making factors in terms of where customers shop. Not only could it keep customers away, failure to keep your parking lot clean can also lead to accelerated asphalt deterioration and other problems that can end up costing much more than street sweeping and maintenance services in the long run.

Your asphalt parking lot isn’t likely the most glamorous aspect of your business, but it does present an opportunity to make a great first impression and save you money. In fact, taking preventative steps to maintain your parking lot can save you a lot of money in repair costs and keep your parking lot looking great for years to come.
