Permeable Interlocking Concrete Pavements (PICP) are designed to manage stormwater, but long-term performance depends on proper maintenance. This session breaks down what effective PICP maintenance looks like in the field and, more importantly, how contractors can turn it into a profitable and repeatable service offering to homeowners. Attendees will learn practical maintenance techniques, equipment considerations, and common mistakes to avoid, along with real-world strategies for educating clients, pricing services, and building recurring revenue streams. Whether you’re new to PICP or looking to expand your service offerings, this session will provide actionable insights to help you protect pavement performance while growing your business.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify effective PICP maintenance practices, including inspection, cleaning methods, and joint material management required to maintain infiltration performance.
- Diagnose and prevent performance issues by recognizing causes of clogging and failure and applying strategies to extend pavement life.
- Select the right equipment and techniques by comparing maintenance equipment (e.g., regenerative air vs. true vacuum vs: sweeper) and determining appropriate use for different site conditions.
- Learn how to build a profitable maintenance program by developing pricing strategies, service packages, and recurring revenue models while effectively communicating value to clients.
