Trust The Parking Lot Paving Pros At RDC Paving
Since the early 20th century, cars have been an important part of American society. Due in part to the shortage of options for public transportation and the growth of suburban areas, many people must rely on their cars for daily activities. They commute to work, drive to shopping malls, or commute to universities.
As a result, they also rely on parking lots for a secure location to leave their vehicles. That’s why a parking lot is a valuable asset for any business or organization. Without proactive parking lot maintenance or repair, your asset could become a liability.
Why Is Parking Lot Maintenance Important?
A poorly maintained parking lot can affect how others perceive your operation. Potential customers may question whether you provide goods or services of sufficient quality, and potential tenants may question if your lack of exterior maintenance indicates poor maintenance of interior spaces.
You could be losing money without ever understanding why your sales are slumping or why you struggle to attract and retain tenants. You could also risk financial losses if your lack of maintenance results in an accident or injury that gets you stuck in a lawsuit. A poorly maintained lot also may not comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act or local ordinances.
Without effective maintenance, you will find yourself paying for major repairs more frequently and likely need to rebuild your parking lot in less than 10 years.
What Should a Parking Lot Maintenance Plan Include?
Asphalt Sealcoating
Sealcoating is a remarkably cost-effective way to prevent damage to your pavement and enhance its appearance. Sealcoating blocks UV radiation which makes asphalt brittle, dry, and prone to cracking. These rays also bleach the color of asphalt, so blocking them also helps retain the color.
If fading has already occurred, sealcoating can usually restore the pavement’s original color. Sealcoating also slows the penetration of vehicle fluids that can soften your pavement. Plan to sealcoat your parking lot every other year to maximize protection.

Parking Lot Paving FAQs
Parking lot paving typically involves site evaluation, surface prep or removal, grading, compaction of base layers, installation of new asphalt, and finishing touches like striping, curbs, and drainage components.
Consider repaving when you see widespread cracks, large potholes, surface deterioration, uneven areas, drainage issues, or if the lot is older than 10–15 years and showing structural decline.
Overlay: A new asphalt layer applied directly over a stable existing surface for improved appearance and minor structural boost.
Full reconstruction: Involves removing existing pavement, regrading the sub-base, compacting, and laying new asphalt—recommended when base layers are compromised.
The ideal time to repave is during warmer months, typically spring through early fall, when temperatures allow for proper compaction and curing.
