Keeping your parking lot clean isn’t just about curb appeal, it’s about safety, durability, and making a great first impression. But when is the best time of year to schedule professional parking lot cleaning? At Universal Parking Lot Services, we break it down by season so you can plan ahead and protect your investment.
Summer Great for Deep Cleaning and Repairs
It’s now! Summer is the busiest and most important season for commercial parking lot cleaning. With longer daylight hours, dry conditions, and increased foot traffic, now is the ideal time to refresh your lot and prepare for the second half of the year.
- Optimal weather for deep cleaning: Pressure washing, sweeping, and sealing all work best when it’s dry and warm.
- Great time for asphalt repairs: Crack filling and pothole patching cure faster in hot weather, reducing downtime for your business.
- High visibility and foot traffic: Clean lots help create a professional appearance and boost curb appeal during peak business season.
- Prevents long-term damage: Summer heat causes oil, gum, and rubber to bond with asphalt, regular cleaning now prevents permanent staining.
Clear Leaves, Prevent Drainage Issues, and Get Winter-Ready
Fall cleaning is critical to preparing your parking lot for the challenges of winter. Leaves, pine needles, and debris not only make your property look unkempt, they also trap moisture and block storm drains, leading to water damage and slippery surfaces.
- Removes organic debris: Wet leaves and trash collect quickly and can stain asphalt or create hazards for customers.
- Protects your investment: Seasonal sweeping and washing remove grime and reduce the risk of cracks expanding during freeze-thaw cycles.
- Keeps drainage systems clear: Prevents pooling water and flooding around curbs, entrances, and walkways.
- Prepares for winter treatments: A clean lot ensures de-icing materials can be applied more evenly and effectively once the snow arrives.
