Where is your parking lot located?
Select your state to customize recommendations based on local climate and geological conditions
How old is your asphalt parking lot?
The age helps determine expected wear patterns and maintenance needs
Less than 2 years
Recently installed or resurfaced
2-5 years
Relatively new with minimal wear
5-10 years
Moderate age with some expected wear
10-15 years
Mature pavement requiring regular maintenance
Over 15 years
Aging pavement with significant wear potential
How would you describe the overall surface appearance?
Look at the general condition and color of the asphalt
Excellent - Dark Black
Rich black color, smooth surface, looks nearly new
Good - Dark Gray
Slightly faded but still uniform, minor surface texture visible
Fair - Medium Gray
Noticeable fading, aggregate starting to show, some oxidation
Poor - Light Gray
Significant fading, rough texture, aggregate clearly visible
Very Poor - White/Bleached
Severely oxidized, very rough, aggregate exposed throughout
What type of cracking do you observe?
Identify the most prevalent crack pattern in your parking lot
No Visible Cracks
Surface is intact with no cracking
Hairline/Surface Cracks
Very fine cracks, less than 1/4 inch wide
Linear/Longitudinal Cracks
Straight cracks running parallel to traffic flow
Block Cracking
Interconnected cracks forming rectangular blocks
Alligator/Fatigue Cracking
Interconnected cracks resembling alligator skin, indicates structural failure
Are there any potholes or depressions?
Assess areas where pavement material is missing or sunken
None
No potholes or depressions visible
Small Depressions
Minor surface depressions, less than 1 inch deep
Small Potholes
Few potholes, less than 6 inches wide and 2 inches deep
Multiple/Large Potholes
Several potholes or some larger than 6 inches wide
Extensive Potholes
Numerous large potholes affecting traffic flow
How well does water drain from the surface?
Poor drainage accelerates pavement deterioration
Excellent Drainage
Water drains quickly, no standing water after rain
Good Drainage
Minor puddles that disappear within 30 minutes
Fair Drainage
Some areas of standing water for 1-2 hours after rain
Poor Drainage
Multiple areas with standing water for several hours
Failed Drainage
Persistent standing water, visible depressions and birdbaths
What type of traffic does your parking lot primarily handle?
Traffic intensity directly impacts wear patterns and maintenance requirements
Light Duty - Passenger Vehicles Only
Primarily cars and small SUVs, minimal heavy vehicle traffic
Medium Duty - Mixed Traffic
Regular passenger vehicles with occasional delivery trucks
Heavy Duty - Regular Truck Traffic
Daily delivery trucks, service vehicles, or buses
Industrial - Constant Heavy Traffic
Regular semi-trucks, heavy equipment, or high-volume commercial use
Special Load Areas
Dumpster zones, loading docks, or areas with stationary heavy loads
