The Importance of Concrete Aprons in Commercial Properties
A Balance of Form and Function
As a business owner, you want the property surrounding your building to be attractive, but at the same time you also want the workmanship to last. It can be hard to strike a balance, especially when high-traffic areas, like parking lots and sidewalks, are the first thing that your customers sees when they come to your place of business. Pavement takes a beating. It is subject to vehicle and pedestrian traffic nonstop during business hours. This means that the question then begs... how do you maintain costly asphalt and concrete while adding visual flair to the property? At Maintain It All, we have found the perfect balance with our professional apron services!
What Is a Concrete Apron?
A concrete apron, also known as "an approach," is a section of concrete inserted in one of three places:
These sections can differ in width, length, and style depending on both your company's needs and municipal building codes. A concrete apron serves one of three different functions in regard to your driveway, parking lot, or building:
You want to ensure a smooth transition between sections of roadway and parking lot. The last thing that you want is to risk damage to your patron's vehicles because of uneven roadways, not to mention the possibility of damage to your pavement sections themselves. Concrete aprons can aid in stormwater management as they prevent water from pooling on concrete surfaces. Aprons help to divert rainfall away from your parking lot. Concrete aprons also add aesthetic value to your property by breaking up the scenery and making your parking lot more appealing to look at.
Concrete vs. Asphalt
Which is right for you? There are benefits to each type of paving material. Asphalt is easier to repair and reseal, but it is also softer and more prone to wear over time. For aprons, concrete is the preferred material due to its durability and long life. When accounting for vehicle load, and planning for parking lot drainage, you want the added benefits of a concrete apron installed in the correct places.
Why Invest in a Concrete Apron?
A concrete apron adds safety, durability, and curb appeal to your property. Here’s why it’s worth considering:
- What are the benefits of a concrete apron?
It smooths transitions between surfaces, prevents vehicle damage, improves drainage, and enhances the look of your property. - Does it improve safety?
Yes! It reduces risks from uneven surfaces and pooling water, making it safer for vehicles and pedestrians. - Is it customizable?
Absolutely. Concrete aprons can be tailored to fit your property’s size and style needs. - How long will it last?
With proper care, a concrete apron can last for decades, even in high-traffic areas.
