Rolling the Dice on Late-season Sealcoating

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

This article describes a challenging sealcoating project in Atlanta, which involved sealing a 70,000 sq yd parking lot at the tail end of the season. Short work days and possible temperature and weather limitations required careful planning and scheduling. The property owner had to be willing to accept that the sealer could not be guaranteed if the project went past the cutoff date. The project was completed by working on smaller sections during the week when the property was open and then doing larger sections on weekends.
