Sealcoating is a very effective means of saving maintenance costs on
pavement that has begun to show signs of deterioration. The ideal time
to seal a road is when deterioration is first discovered; thus saving
expensive patching and/or repaving. Sealcoating protects and maintains
the life of your asphalt and should generally be done every 3-5 years
depending on traffic conditions and weather. Atlantic Southern Paving &
Sealcoating has skilled technicians and the latest spray equipment to
apply the proper coatings and revitalize your parking areas. Our
sealcoating systems include standard and special processes-each designed
to meet your sealcoating needs.
SEALCOATING PROCESS
Notification - all tenants that are going to be in the designated
construction area are notified 48 hours prior to the commencement of the
work.
Barricades - The parking lot is professionally barricaded using
flashing barriers so that the areas under construction are clearly
visible.
Pavement Cleaning - All pavement surfaces are cleaned thoroughly.
Wire brooms and blowers are used to get all of the remaining debris off
of the pavement surface to assure proper adhesion.
Oil Spot Treatment - Oil, grease, and gasoline stains are treated
using an oil spot primer. This is important because sealer will not
adhere properly to any of the above named stains. When the bonding agent
is applied properly, the stains will be delayed from resurfacing thus
extending the life of the sealcoat.
Application of Sealcoat - Atlantic Southern Paving and Sealcoating
will apply either one of our systems depending on the existing surface.
Our first system is two coats that consist of a squeegee coat followed by
a spray coat. The second is a two-spray coat application over the entire
area.
Curing time - To assure the best quality job the proper curing
time is essential. We require 24 hours of curing time from the time the
first application is applied and at the end of the 24 hours the designated
area will be unbarricaded and opened up for use.
