Question 4

What types of properties do you work on?

Accepted Answer

We work on all types of properties — commercial parking lots, residential driveways, HOA communities, shopping centers, office parks, industrial facilities, schools, churches, apartment complexes, and more. No job is too large or too small.

Question 5

How long does a typical sealcoating project take?

Accepted Answer

A standard residential driveway takes 2-4 hours to complete. A typical commercial parking lot of 50,000 sq ft takes 1-2 days. Larger projects may take longer. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your business.

Question 6

Do you offer warranties on your work?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We stand behind our work with written warranties. Sealcoating carries a 2-year warranty against peeling and fading. Striping carries a 1-year warranty. Crack filling carries a 2-year warranty. If any issue arises during the warranty period, we'll return and fix it at no cost.

Question 7

Can you work around my business hours?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We understand that downtime costs you money. We offer night and weekend scheduling for commercial clients to ensure zero disruption to your business operations.

Question 8

How do I maintain my asphalt after sealcoating?

Accepted Answer

Keep the surface clean, address any new cracks promptly with crack filler, avoid parking heavy equipment or trailers with sharp jack stands on the surface, and reapply sealcoat every 2-3 years. We provide all clients with a maintenance guide after service.

Question 9

How much does commercial sealcoating cost per square foot?

Accepted Answer

Commercial sealcoating typically costs $0.15-$0.35 per square foot depending on lot size, condition, and location. Larger lots (50,000+ sq ft) receive lower per-square-foot pricing due to economies of scale. A two-coat application with crack filling for a 50,000 sq ft lot typically ranges from $9,750-$14,000.

Question 10

How often should a commercial parking lot be sealcoated?

Accepted Answer

High-traffic commercial lots (500+ vehicles/day) should be sealcoated annually. Medium-traffic lots (100-500 vehicles/day) every 2 years. Low-traffic lots (under 100 vehicles/day) every 3 years. In Florida's intense UV climate, more frequent application is recommended due to accelerated oxidation.

Question 11

Can you work at night or on weekends to avoid business disruption?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer night and weekend scheduling for all commercial projects. We understand that parking lot closures cost you revenue, so we work around your business hours. Most sealcoating projects can be completed overnight, with the lot reopened by morning rush hour.

Question 12

Do you provide ADA compliance assessments and striping?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We specialize in ADA-compliant parking lot layouts. Our team will assess your lot, calculate the required number of accessible and van-accessible spaces based on your total stall count, ensure proper access aisle dimensions, and install compliant signage. We stay current with all federal ADA requirements and local building codes.

Question 13

Can you handle large commercial properties like shopping centers and distribution facilities?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We have experience with properties of all sizes, from small office parking lots to 200,000+ sq ft shopping centers and distribution facilities. We have the equipment, crew size, and material capacity to handle large-scale projects efficiently. We also offer annual maintenance contracts for large commercial portfolios.

Question 14

Do you offer annual maintenance contracts for commercial properties?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer customized annual maintenance contracts that include scheduled sealcoating, striping, crack filling, and priority emergency repair service. Maintenance contracts lock in pricing, ensure your property is always in compliance, and eliminate the need to coordinate individual service calls. Contact us for a custom proposal.

Question 15

Are you licensed and insured for commercial work?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We are fully licensed and insured with general liability coverage and workers' compensation. We can provide certificates of insurance directly to your property management company or corporate office, and we can list your entity as additional insured upon request.

Question 16

How quickly can you respond to emergency pothole repairs?

Accepted Answer

We offer same-day and next-day emergency pothole repair for commercial clients. Potholes are a liability risk — vehicle damage claims and trip-and-fall injuries can cost far more than the repair. Contact us immediately if you have a safety hazard in your parking lot.

Question 17

Do you work with property management companies and HOAs?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we work extensively with property management companies, HOA boards, and commercial real estate firms. We understand the bidding, approval, and documentation processes these organizations require. We provide detailed proposals, before-and-after photos, and warranty documentation for your records.

Question 18

What warranties do you offer on commercial work?

Accepted Answer

Sealcoating carries a 2-year warranty against peeling and fading. Striping carries a 1-year warranty. Crack filling carries a 2-year warranty. Pothole repairs carry a 3-year warranty. If any issue arises during the warranty period, we return and fix it at no cost. Extended warranties are available for maintenance contract clients.

Question 19

How long does sealcoating last in Florida?

Accepted Answer

In Central Florida's climate, a properly applied two-coat sealcoat typically lasts 2-3 years on residential driveways and 12-18 months on high-traffic commercial lots. We recommend reapplying before visible wear appears for maximum protection.

Question 20

How long until I can drive on the sealed surface?

Accepted Answer

Cure time depends on weather conditions, but typically 24-48 hours for full cure. In hot, humid Orlando weather, we recommend keeping vehicles off for at least 24 hours. Foot traffic is safe after 4-6 hours.

Question 21

Can you sealcoat in the rain?

Accepted Answer

No. Sealcoat needs dry conditions for proper adhesion and curing. We monitor weather forecasts closely and will reschedule if rain is expected within 24 hours of application. We never cut corners on surface preparation.

Question 22

Do you fill cracks before sealcoating?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Crack filling is included with all full-lot sealcoating projects. We route and clean cracks, then fill them with hot rubberized crack sealant before applying the sealer. This prevents water from penetrating beneath the new sealcoat.

Question 23

How often should parking lots be restriped?

Accepted Answer

In Florida's climate, traffic paint typically lasts 12-24 months depending on traffic volume. High-traffic commercial lots usually need annual restriping, while low-traffic lots can go 2 years between applications.

Question 24

Do you handle ADA compliance?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We design all striping layouts to meet current ADA standards, including the correct number of accessible spaces based on your total stall count, proper access aisle dimensions, and required signage placement.

Question 25

Can you restripe over existing lines?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if the existing layout is still compliant and in good position, we can restripe directly over the old lines. If the layout needs changes, we use black-out paint to cover old lines before applying the new layout.

Question 26

What types of paint do you use?

Accepted Answer

We use premium water-based and solvent-based traffic paints depending on the surface condition and client preference. For high-wear areas, we also offer thermoplastic striping for maximum durability.

Question 27

What is the difference between crack filling and crack sealing?

Accepted Answer

Crack filling uses a rubberized material to fill cracks that are 1/4 inch or wider. Crack sealing involves routing the crack first to create a reservoir for the sealant, which provides better adhesion and longevity. We evaluate each crack and use the appropriate method.

Question 28

How long does crack filling last?

Accepted Answer

Properly applied hot rubberized crack fill typically lasts 2-4 years depending on traffic, climate, and crack movement. We use premium sealants designed for Florida's temperature range.

Question 29

Can you fill all types of cracks?

Accepted Answer

We handle linear cracks, alligator cracking (surface), and edge cracks. However, alligator cracking indicates structural failure beneath the surface and may require more extensive repair. We'll assess and recommend the right solution.

Question 30

Should I crack fill before sealcoating?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Crack filling should always be done before sealcoating. The sealer will coat the filled cracks and create a uniform appearance. Filling cracks after sealcoating would leave visible dark lines on the fresh surface.

Question 31

What causes potholes in Orlando?

Accepted Answer

Potholes in Central Florida are primarily caused by water infiltration through unsealed cracks. Heavy rains erode the base material beneath the asphalt, and vehicle traffic causes the weakened surface to collapse. The intense Florida sun also oxidizes asphalt, making it brittle and more prone to cracking.

Question 32

How quickly can you repair a pothole?

Accepted Answer

We offer same-day and next-day pothole repair for urgent safety concerns. For larger areas requiring saw-cut and replace, we typically schedule within 2-3 days. Contact us for emergency repairs.

Question 33

What is infrared asphalt repair?

Accepted Answer

Infrared repair uses specialized equipment to heat the existing asphalt to a workable temperature, then blends new hot mix asphalt with the reheated existing material. The result is a seamless repair with no cold joints — water cannot penetrate the repair boundary.

Question 34

Can all potholes be repaired, or do some need full replacement?

Accepted Answer

Surface potholes with intact base layers can be repaired effectively. However, if the base layer is compromised or there's extensive alligator cracking, a full-depth repair or section replacement may be necessary. We assess each situation and recommend the most cost-effective solution.
