Maintain Your Parking Lot’s Curb Appeal and Boost Revenue with Black-Top Paving’s Top 7 Repair and Maintenance Benefits
Is your parking lot showing signs of damage after the record snowfall in the Sioux Falls area?
Are there potholes peeking out? Water sitting where it shouldn’t be? Are cracks forming in places they shouldn’t be?
From faded striping lines to damaged curb appeal and bumpy surfaces, unkept parking lots can be a turn-off for your employees and customers, negatively impacting their experience with your business.
In fact, research shows parking lots can:
- Influence customer decisions
- Generate more traffic
- Increase revenue
- Sway first impressions
- Enhance curb appeal
- Maintain property resale value
- Impact employees work experience
Luckily, Black-Top Paving, a division of Journey Group, can help you stay ahead of the game with services that lay a solid ground for your parking lot needs.
“It’s a good idea to have professionals evaluate concrete and asphalt surfacing every two years, especially if you haven’t done any maintenance in the last five years,” said Ryan Kerkvliet, VP of Black-Top Paving.
If you haven’t serviced your lot in a few years, don’t worry! Black-Top Paving’s services have recently expanded to cover all aspects of maintenance, providing our clients with a full-site solution for parking lot needs and giving our clients even more for their budget without hiring different contractors, keeping you from spending more time on coordinating and paying several different contractors.
“We can now do all the site surfacing work, whether that’s new construction or existing parking lots and streets. We can now self-perform all the surfacing work, giving us the ability to see the growth needs that Sioux Falls and surrounding areas are experiencing and expecting,” said Kerkvliet.
