At Alpha Paving Industries, we generally ask clients to commit to a bit of preparation work before the sealcoating job begins. When the checklist is followed, the sealing work can be accomplished much more efficiently. By following a few simple guidelines, you can ensure that the entire project reaches an eminently successful conclusion.
How Should I Prepare For A Sealcoating Job?
Monitor the Weather
An effective sealcoating job will require cooperative weather. If there is a chance of rain, then the labor will have to be pushed back to another day. If you do not hear from us, you can call us to reschedule the project. We’ll work out an appointment time that is convenient for your business.
Turn Off Your Sprinklers
You’ll need to turn off your sprinkler system in the hours before the project is scheduled to begin. Because some sprinkler systems are operated on timers, you may want to shut them off the evening before. It is essential that the entire parking lot be dry in order for the sealant to be effective.
Remove Vehicles from the Parking Lot
Because sealcoating jobs are meant to protect the entire parking lot from degradation, you should ensure that all cars, trucks, vans and buses are moved to other areas. If the parking lot is part of an apartment complex, you might choose to have the sealcoating job performed in sections so that residents still have places to park their cars at night.
Keep the Lot Clear After the Project Has Been Completed
Pets, children and visiting traffic should be kept away from the newly sealed lot for at least 24 hours after the completion of the project. By informing all interested parties beforehand, you can ensure that no one is inconvenienced.
