First impressions matter, and your car park is often the first encounter your customers have with your establishment. It’s the gateway to your business and a reflection of your commitment to providing a high quality service or experience. In this blog, we’re exploring the advantages of car park resurfacing for both businesses and customers.
Benefits for your business and customers
Car park resurfacing can benefit businesses by improving their professional appearance, increasing safety, improving accessibility, and being cost-effective. It’s an essential grounds maintenance makeover that not only revitalises the appearance of your property but also your business prospects.
Professional appearance
A well-maintained car park reflects positively on a business and can make it look more professional. On the other hand, a car park with cracks, potholes and other imperfections can make a business look unprofessional and negatively impact its reputation. A presentable car park can make a business look more professional and trustworthy, which can positively impact customers’ experiences with the business.
Increased safety
Resurfacing a car park can eliminate hazards such as potholes, cracks and uneven surfaces. A well-maintained car park reduces the risk of accidents that could lead to injury or damage to customer vehicles. Smoother surfaces with clear markings and well-defined pedestrian pathways improve visibility and reduce slip and trip hazards, making your facility safer for everyone.
Improved accessibility
A well-maintained car park can make it easier for customers to access your facility, reducing the risk of losing out on visitors and potential revenue. While there are no hard and fast rules for car park line markings, inclusivity, accessibility and safety are considerations that will be appreciated by your customers, clients and employees.
Cost-effective
Resurfacing a car park can be a cost-effective solution compared to constantly repairing it. Proper maintenance can prevent the need for costly reconstruction, ultimately saving your business money in the long run.
Increased property value
A well-maintained car park can enhance the overall value of your property. It may make your location more appealing to potential investors or buyers, increasing your property’s value and providing a competitive edge on the commercial property market.
How often should car parks be resurfaced?
Car park resurfacing should be carried out at least every ten years. However, it’s good to take stock of the volume and severity of road surface issues and schedule resurfacing sooner if required. As for line markings, repainting by specialists every year is recommended.
