You need to protect your asphalt from harm, and we can help you with that. At Bennett Paving, we are here to not only help you construct a reliable asphalt parking lot but also make sure you protect it. One of the biggest threats comes from standing water. If you have standing water on your pavement, you need to get rid of it as quickly as possible. There are a number of serious risks that could lead to major problems if you do not get rid of standing water quickly.
Standing Water Leads To Cracks
The biggest risk created by standing water is that it can lead to cracks. Even the smallest cracks in your pavement are large enough for water to seep into. As water flows into your pavement, the cracks can get larger. Water can eat into the structure underneath the pavement and, if water freezes, these cracks can get larger as well. If you want to prevent water from causing your cracks to get bigger, you need to seal your pavement to prevent this from happening. At Bennett Paving, we can help you with that. We can work with you to figure out the best way to seal your asphalt and prevent cracks from forming.
Cracks Compromise the Structural Integrity of Your Pavement
While the cracks alone are bad enough, they can also compromise the structural integrity of your pavement. The cracks will only get bigger over time if you do not address them as quickly as possible. These cracks can form large potholes and low spots in your parking lot, making it difficult for people to park their cars. This will also leave a poor impression on your employees and customers, creating serious business concerns. You should remove standing water quickly to prevent it from compromising the structural integrity of your parking lot.
Standing Water Can Create Liability Issues
Lastly, if you have standing water on your asphalt parking lot, you could face major liability issues. Someone could slip and fall, leading to an injury. Cars could be damaged by the parking lot, leading to major repair bills. While these might not sound like your problem, you are responsible for your parking lot. Therefore, you need to make sure you are properly protected. This means getting rid of standing water quickly and efficiently to protect your business from harm.
