parking lot sealcoating

We understand that downtime equals lost revenue. For commercial lots, we offer phased scheduling, sealing one half of the lot at a time, or weekend and overnight applications. Typically, a lot can be reopened to vehicle traffic within 24 to 48 hours, depending on weather conditions.

Absolutely. We specialize in "phased applications." We coordinate with property managers to block off specific zones, ensuring your tenants, customers, or residents always have access to parking and entrances while the work is being completed.

Yes. A fresh sealcoat provides the high-contrast background necessary for crisp, visible line striping. This ensures your handicap stalls, fire lanes, and directional arrows are clearly marked, reducing your liability and keeping your property compliant with Ontario's accessibility standards.

Commercial pricing varies based on the total square footage, the condition of the asphalt, and the amount of crack filling required. We provide detailed, transparent bids that break down the cost, allowing property managers to budget accurately for their annual maintenance.

Sealcoating is a protective surface layer, not a structural filler. For a commercial lot, we recommend a hot-rubberized crack sealing treatment prior to sealcoating. This prevents water from reaching the sub-base, which is the primary cause of costly "alligator" cracking and potholes.

Commercial lots experience high drip rates from parked cars. Our commercial-grade emulsions are specifically formulated to resist the penetration of oils and chemicals, preventing them from softening the asphalt and causing "raveling" or surface breakdown.

Commercial lots endure much higher "turning stress" from heavy vehicles and delivery trucks. We use a high-solids, polymer-modified emulsion reinforced with industrial sand. This provides the extra friction and durability required for high-traffic environments compared to standard residential mixes.

Coordination is key for commercial projects. We require that irrigation systems be turned off 24 hours before and 24 hours after the application. We coordinate directly with your landscaping team to ensure no grass clippings or water interfere with the curing process.

For most GTA commercial properties, a cycle of every 3 to 5 years is ideal. This protects the asphalt from the heavy salt usage and plow damage typical of Ontario winters, significantly extending the time between expensive repaving projects.

This is a critical question for any property manager. Sealcoat Canada is fully insured with comprehensive liability coverage and is in good standing with WSIB. We provide all necessary clearance certificates and documentation before any work begins on-site.
