Walking the Lot Before You Quote

For crew leaders and estimators: how to do an evaluation walk that finds every distress, sorts structural from surface, sets the scope in the right order, and avoids promising what sealcoat cannot deliver. Method only; no pricing.

You will be able to

  • Run a repeatable evaluation walk.
  • Sort structural from surface distress and set the work order.
  • Write a scope the crew can execute and the customer understands.
  • Set expectations for what sealcoat does and does not do.
