From shopping centres and supermarkets to schools and workplaces, car parks are key parts of our infrastructure and provide convenient and organised parking areas for vehicles. However, whether from wear and tear due to constant use or weather conditions, car parks can become damaged over time. A damaged car park is unsafe, and unsatisfactory and can ultimately end up turning the public to other facilities to park their vehicles. This is where car park resurfacing comes in. Resurfacing your car park is an essential maintenance task that can significantly improve your car park’s appearance, function and – ultimately – its lifespan. At Henderson & Taylor, we have been resurfacing a diverse range of car parks for over 50 years – this means that we can handle a wide range of projects, from small business car parks to large-scale facilities.

In this blog post, we’ll explore the benefits of resurfacing your car park, what causes car park damage and how Henderson & Taylor can help. We’ll also highlight why we should be your first choice for car park resurfacing! With 50+ years of experience, we are the experts to count on, so contact us today!

What causes car park damage?

Most car parks are used every single day, which means that they are bound to deteriorate and be subject to damage over time. Here are some common causes of car park damage that you should keep an eye out for…

  • Heavy Traffic
    Car parks are made to support the constant movement and weight of vehicles. However, over time, this pressure may cause cracks, potholes and further damage over time.
  • Weather Conditions
    Our great British weather is a significant contributor to car park damage. Conditions such as rain, snow and even sunlight can impact the surface of your car park, leading to erosion.
  • Poor Drainage
    Sometimes poor drainage can cause water to collect on the surface of your car park. While this may look innocuous, this could weaken the foundations and cause water damage.
  • Poor Construction
    If you have a car park constructed poorly with low-quality materials, you may see damage occur sooner. Fortunately, Henderson & Taylor uses premium materials for our car parks.
  • Neglecting Maintenance
    If you neglect frequent maintenance or ignore early signs of damage, you run the risk of this damage becoming a major problem further down the line.

Understanding what causes car park damage is key to being able to take preventative action and scheduling prompt resurfacing to keep your car park in optimal condition. When you work with Henderson & Taylor, you can expect a full 360-degree service from start to finish. Our comprehensive service includes consultation, design, and resurfacing. The synergy of this all-encompassing service allows us to carry out all projects on a cost-effective, time-efficient basis.

Addressing underlying issues such as cracks, potholes and more you can stop further deterioration in its tracks and extend the lifespan of your car park.
  • Improved Safety
    Health and safety is a key concern in any public setting, and car parks are no exception.
