TM Asphalt Sealing recently completed a full-service commercial parking lot repair project at Centreville Elementary School in Centreville, MI.
The lot had begun showing signs of aging, such as faded markings, surface cracks, and overall wear. These signs made it difficult for drivers to navigate and for school staff to manage traffic, especially during drop-off and pick-up hours.
Drawing on decades of experience in commercial pavement maintenance across Southern Michigan, our team delivered a clean, durable finish through a combination of crack-filling, sealcoating, and precise line striping.
The result is a revitalized lot that not only looks fresh but also enhances functionality and safety for students, staff, and visitors year-round.
Our 3-Step Pavement Maintenance Process
1. Crack-Filling and Surface Preparation
We began by thoroughly sweeping the entire parking area to remove dirt, leaves, and loose debris.
Next, our crew filled surface cracks using high-quality crack sealant to prevent water infiltration, which is a key cause of asphalt deterioration. This step helps extend the lifespan of the pavement and stops small issues from becoming more costly structural problems down the road.
2. Sealcoating for Long-Term Protection and Curb Appeal
Once the surface was prepped, a premium sealcoat was applied to protect the asphalt from UV damage, oil stains, and moisture.
In addition to preserving the integrity of the surface, sealcoating restores the asphalt’s rich black appearance, offering a professional and well-maintained look that serves as an ideal base for clear, high-contrast markings.
3. Line Striping for Organization and Safety
Our team then moved on to line striping, using commercial-grade equipment and carefully measured layouts to repaint parking stalls, drive lanes, directional arrows, and ADA-compliant spaces.
Fresh yellow lines now clearly guide drivers and pedestrians alike, improving both the flow of traffic and overall safety, which is particularly important for school environments with young children on the move.
Community Impact Through Quality Pavement Workmanship
Beyond the technical improvements, the project delivered a meaningful visual impact. The new striping blends perfectly with vibrant sidewalk chalk art created by students, giving the refreshed lot a sense of joy and school pride.
Parking lot striping might seem like a simple detail, but for facilities like Centreville Elementary, it plays a crucial role in daily safety and organization.
By investing in routine maintenance, schools can prevent confusion, reduce accidents, and extend the lifespan of their pavement.
