Cleanup and Preparation for Parking Lot Sealing in Thornhill

Action Paving recently completed the cleanup and preparation phase for a parking lot sealing project in Thornhill. This initial process prepares the asphalt surface completely for the application of the sealant, allowing for a long-lasting, hard-wearing finish.

The Process

1. Detailed Cleaning:
   We started by sweeping the parking lot surface clean of all dirt, debris, and dust using brooms and industrial blowers. This is a critical step to ensure the sealant will adhere properly and create an even finish.
2. Oil Stain Treatment:
   All visible oil stains were treated with degreasers and scrubbed vigorously to remove residue that could interfere with the sealant bonding correctly.
3. Crack Clearing:
   We removed all the dirt, weeds, and debris from all the cracks with special equipment. This provides a clear surface for crack filling, a critical process for safeguarding the foundation of the parking lot.
4. Edges and Details:
   Particular care was taken to the lot’s edges and corners, as well as to curbs and adjacent structures, to make sure no debris was left behind and the sealant could be applied smoothly.
5. Protection Measures:
   To prevent overspray during sealing, we taped and masked surfaces such as curbs, sidewalks, and buildings alongside the parking lot.

Now that we had cleaned, prepped, and covered the parking lot, it was ready to receive our high-quality oil-based sealant. This prep step is required in order to allow for a clean, professional appearance that extends the life of the asphalt.
