As Labor Day has ended, it is the not so subtle reminder that Summer is over and Fall is almost here.  

If you are a Facility / Property Manager in NJ, PA, DE or MD and arrive back to work today; there are less than 60 days left to seal coat your asphalt parking lots and less than 90 days to pave your asphalt parking lots in "acceptable weather" conditions.

Some services such as smaller concrete projects, crack sealing, catch basin repair, and pothole repairs can be completed 12 months a year, weather permitting, they are best completed before Thanksgiving.  On average in NJ, December only offers 7-10 days of optimal weather to complete asphalt & concrete work.

Services best performed before October 31st:

PAVEMENT SEAL COATING:

null

Pavement sealer will help protect your asphalt against gas, oil, grease, oxidation and deicing chemicals before winter and is best performed before 10/15/17. When timed properly- asphalt seal coating will extend the life of your asphalt up to 20 years.

Average Cost: $0.17 - $0.25 per square foot

Services best performed before November 30th:

CRACK SEALING:

null

Hot rubberized crack sealing will seal cracks and prevent small cracks from becoming potholes and large alligatored cracked areas before winter. This is the best money spent as $0.60 - $1.00 per lineal foot spent in the FALL will save $4.00 - $6.00 per square foot as early as the following SPRING.

Crack Sealing is your best money ($$$) spent!

Average Cost: $0.60 - $1.00 per lineal foot

ASPHALT PAVING:

null

We provide full service paving services from milling, drainage correction, overlays and overlays reinfoced with geotextile paving fabric.

Average Cost: $4.00 - $6.00 square foot

CONCRETE REPAIRS:

Average Cost: $8.00 - $16.00 square foot

The key to understanding "what" has to be done to your parking lot before Winter is by receiving a parking lot evaluation to identify life safety issues and other trouble spots.

The Farmers Almanac is predicting a brutal Winter this year.

"I know, they said the same thing last winter and we didn't get any significant snow..."
