Stay Safe with a Sealcoating and Crack Repair Safety Checklist

 

Asphalt Sealcoating and crack repair is essential for keeping your residential or commercial property looking its best. But, when it comes to sealcoating and crack repair projects, safety should always be the top priority. To ensure that your sealcoating project is completed safely and efficiently, here’s a safety checklist of important tips to consider before beginning the job.


Prepare the Site Properly

Before any asphalt sealcoating can take place, it's important to make sure that the site is properly prepared by removing any debris and obstacles from the area. This includes any objects such as huge rocks or large branches that could be hazardous or get in the way of completing the job correctly. It's also important to ensure that any signage or barricades are in place around the work area for added safety measures.

 

Wear Appropriate Clothing

When handling asphalt sealcoating projects, it's essential to wear clothing that provides protection from chemicals and other materials used during this type of maintenance service. This includes wearing long pants, closed-toed shoes, gloves, goggles, and a respirator mask if necessary. It's also important to keep your skin covered at all times as well as avoid wearing jewelry while working on an asphalt sealcoating job as these items could get caught in machinery or cause injuries if not properly secured.


Utilize Protective Equipment

Anytime you're working on an asphalt sealcoating project it's important to make sure you have access to all of the protective equipment needed for completing the job safely such as gloves, goggles, earplugs or headphones, hard hats, and respirator masks (for jobs involving high levels of dust). It's also important to use tools appropriately and never force them into areas they weren't designed for which could cause injury or damage property or equipment.
