City of Orange Business Park Gets New Sealcoating and Striping

City of Orange Business Park Gets New Sealcoating and Striping

This week in the City of Orange California, Empire Parking Lot Services was hired to slurry seal and re-stripe a business park located on Batavia. A local property management company in Orange gave us a call and asked us to provide them with a price for their asphalt repair project. They had received other prices, but still where in need of one more price to complete their bid process. We had never worked with this management company before, but knew we could compete, and we are always looking to increase our customer base. We submitted a price to the company and later that week we were told that we had been awarded the contract. The job was promptly scheduled and completed, and went off without a hitch.

 

 

 

About this Asphalt Repair Project

Like all projects, our estimators visits the site before quoting the price, this greatly reduces the chance for any misunderstandings and mistakes that can occur. But our service doesn’t stop there, once a project has been awarded, our production manager will step in as well. He will make a site visit to a project ahead of time, to be sure that any difficulties that could arise are dealt with before the day of the project. This practice is standard on all larger asphalt repair and asphalt sealing projects for Empire Parking Lot Services. We find that these quick visits can help our production team foresee and be prepared for those little nuances that can come up during the project. One thing that our production manager noticed on this project was all of the concrete flow lines on the project. For sealcoating it is imperative that our seal crews know about these things ahead of time. This way our crews can be prepared for them ahead of time. When we showed up to do the project we used a plastic sheeting to protect those concrete flow lines for the tracking and seal on to the concrete with our sealcoating tractors. This project was sealed and re-striped in one weekend. Not bad considering that the project consisted of over 225,000 square feet. The job went off great and the photos are the real proof.

Seal & Striping for Placentia Local Business

September 7th, 2011

Empire-PLS Performs Seal & Stripe for Placentia Business

Sealcoating & Striping in Placentia Ca.

This week Empire-PLS performed some Seal & Striping for a local Placentia California business called Lincoln Imports.  They are an importer that has been in business for over 31 years. Lincoln Imports is an importer of seasonal items and home décor items. When they called us they were in the process of getting multiple quotes for seal & striping and crack filling services. Empire-PLS provided them with a quote and we were awarded the project based on both price, and presentation. They basically said that they felt more at ease with us and that is some great feedback.

Seal & Striping Makes Asphalt Last Longer

One of things savvy property owners such as Lincoln Imports understands is that if you don’t take care of your parking lot with annual maintenance, it will cost you much more over time. Annual or semiannual maintenance is the key to keeping your asphalt intact and lasting much longer.

At Empire-PLS, we strictly adhere to what the experts recommend, and those experts are the manufacturers of the sealcoat materials we use.  We work with several major manufacturers including Diversified, Western Emulsions, & Western Colloid.  These companies recommend that sealcoating is done about every three to four years, but also recommend that at that time length, you install (2) coats of seal and not just one.

Many California businesses opt for sealing their parking lots every 2 years with a (1) single coat to spread out the cost of maintenance, as well as keep their parking lot looking blacker for longer.  Some parking lots however will require sealcoating and striping more often that based on their own particular reasons.

For Lincoln Imports it had been about three years and was defiantly time for the new Seal & Striping.  Sealcoating helps protect your asphalt by sealing the asphalt pavement, thus preventing much of oxidation and erosion of the top layers of your asphalt. On older asphalt pavements, seal coating helps by replacing many of the fine particles that get lost from the top of the asphalt surface due to the oxidation process that naturally occurs.

Here are Some Other Benefits you get From Sealcoating:

  • Sealcoating seals the smaller hairline cracks that can eventually turn into larger cracks. Sealing these helps to reduce water from seeping down to the base material and doing damage.
  • Sealcoating also helps protects the asphalt from the sun, as well as the harmful effects of chemical spills such as oil, gasoline, and other petroleum products.
  • Sealcoating allows your parking lot to have a deep dark color allowing your parking lot markings to stand out more.
  • Sealcoating leaves a smooth, clean surface ideal for sweeping, potentially lowering cleaning costs.
  • Sealcoating costs pennies a square foot compared to the dollars needed to repair or replace damaged asphalt.

 

For more information about sealcoating check out this website here, it is the Asphalt Sealcoating Manufacturers Association and has lots of information about sealcoating materials as well as what it means when your sealcoating goes bad.

Asphalt Seal Coating in Fountain Valley

March 1st, 2010

Fountain Valley Sealcoating Project

Fountain Valley Church Gets New Look for Big Event

A couple weeks ago, Empire PLS received a request to bid asphalt seal coating and striping by Living Waters Christian Fellowship Church in Fountain Valley. The city of Fountain Valley is located on the south end of Orange County near the cities of Huntington Beach, Westminster as well as Lakewood California. With a timely bid submitted, thorough communication, and a fair price we were awarded the sealcoating job. The customer really wanted to improve the appearance of the parking lot for a big event they would host at their facility.

Before the seal coat the lot was very dry.

With great care, we applied a nice consistent coat of slurry seal to not only extend the life of the asphalt but to improve the appearance of the parking lot pavement.

After Seal Coating....WOW!!!

The final touch included parking lot striping the next day. The parking lot painting is a key part of completing any seal coat project. With crisp lines and an even coat of paint the church’s parking lot looked GREAT!!!

Customer was very pleased with their project.
