Your Virginia Beach Asphalt Sealing Contractor
Where there is a parking lot, most likely there is asphalt paving and cracks are inevitable. They result from various factors including freeze / thaw cycles, differential settlement, etc. Let them get away from you and they will cause more and more damage to the point that finally your parking lot cannot be repaired; it must be replaced. Stay ahead of them and you can help to extend the life of your parking lot.
Some cracks are manageable and others are not. But all can be serviced by Virginia Beach asphalt seal coating. The ones that are not are those that are caused by structural fatigue in the pavement - fatigue or "alligator" cracking. And, the other manageable cracks - if not managed - will likely cause accelerated structural fatigue. So, it makes good sense to properly maintain / seal the ones that you can. Otherwise, due to normal expansion and contraction of the parking lot, cracks will be created, water will seep in, water will turn to ice, and the ice will expand to 9% more than the volume of what it was in its liquid state, creating an even bigger opening for more water infiltration.
And all that water, combined with load stress, chemicals, and oxidation from the sun's ultraviolet rays further accelerate the path to alligator cracking - a sign of a parking lot's structural failure.
