When customers drive to your business, one of their first impressions occurs before they walk through your doors. Your parking lot is your welcome mat; if it is dirty or not maintained, it can leave a negative impression. Maintaining your parking lot is vital to protecting the image and brand of your business; it also can save you money. Here are some of the reasons why parking lot maintenance is so important for generating new business and protecting your investment.
Protect Your Image and Brand
Whether you own a small restaurant or a Twin Cities skyscraper, you have an image to protect. Your parking lot represents your business and should be kept clean, safe and maintain. Routine sweeping, pressure washing and restriping of parking spaces can keep your lot or parking garage pristine, helping protect your brand and generating revenue.
Prevent Damage
Minnesota winters can leave debris behind on your parking lot or garage that is not just unattractive, it can be harmful. Salt, sand and silt can accumulate on parking lot asphalt, ramps and in your garage that can damage your structure and even impact the environment. Sweeping away sand, salt and silt from your parking structures can protect your investment and the environment by:
- Preventing erosion to its asphalt that can cause potholes
- Keeping salt and debris out of sewer drains to protect the environment
- Reducing dirt tracked into your business
- Reducing the clogging of storm drains that can flood parking areas or landscaping
It is much easier and less expensive to maintain your parking lot or garage than to fix the damage caused to asphalt, ramps and drains. Scheduling routine parking lot cleaning and maintenance is a wise investment for your business, protecting your image and assets.
