COMMERCIAL ASPHALT SERVICES
Asphalt Paving
Asphalt paving is the foundation of a well-maintained commercial property. Whether you’re installing a brand-new surface or repaving an existing one, our expert team ensures a smooth, durable finish that can withstand heavy traffic and environmental wear. We use high-quality materials and state-of-the-art equipment to create asphalt surfaces that not only look great but also provide lasting performance. Our paving solutions are ideal for:
- Parking lots
- Private roads
- Business driveways
- Industrial yards
- Retail centers and more
Asphalt Repair
Over time, asphalt surfaces can deteriorate due to weather, traffic, and other factors. Cracks, potholes, and uneven surfaces pose safety hazards and can lead to costly repairs if not addressed early. Our asphalt repair services include:
- Pothole Patching: We quickly and effectively fill potholes to restore safety and surface integrity.
- Crack Sealing: Prevents water from seeping into the base layer, reducing further damage.
- Surface Patching: For areas with minor wear and tear, we apply a fresh layer of asphalt to reinforce the existing pavement.
Parking Lot Construction & Maintenance
A well-designed and properly maintained parking lot is essential for any commercial property. We offer complete parking lot services, including:
- New Parking Lot Construction: From grading and base preparation to final striping, we create parking lots that are built to last.
- Resurfacing: When your parking lot starts to show signs of aging, resurfacing is a cost-effective way to restore it without a complete rebuild.
- Routine Maintenance: Regular upkeep such as crack filling and sealcoating prolongs the life of your parking lot.
Sealcoating for Extended Longevity
Sealcoating is one of the most effective ways to protect your asphalt surfaces from the elements. It acts as a barrier against:
- UV rays that cause fading and weakening
- Water penetration that leads to cracks and potholes
- Oil and chemical spills that degrade the asphalt binder
By applying a fresh sealcoat every few years, you can significantly extend the life of your pavement while keeping it looking new and professional.
Asphalt Overlays for Surface Restoration
If your asphalt is showing signs of aging but is still structurally sound, an asphalt overlay can restore its functionality and appearance without a full replacement. This process involves applying a new layer of asphalt over the existing surface, strengthening the pavement while providing a fresh, uniform look. Asphalt overlays are a great alternative for properties looking to improve their pavement while keeping costs in check.
Crack Filling to Prevent Major Damage
Cracks in asphalt are more than just an eyesore—they are an entry point for moisture that can cause significant deterioration. Our crack-filling process includes:
- Cleaning and preparing the cracked area
- Applying a high-quality rubberized filler
- Sealing the surface to prevent water infiltration
By addressing cracks early, we help prevent costly repairs and extend the life of your pavement.
ADA Compliance & Accessibility Solutions
Ensuring compliance with ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) regulations is crucial for commercial properties. We provide:
- Handicap-accessible ramps and pathways
- ADA-compliant parking lot markings
- Proper slope adjustments for wheelchair access
By keeping your property up to code, you enhance accessibility and avoid potential legal issues.
Drainage Solutions for Longevity & Stability
Proper drainage is essential for maintaining the longevity of your asphalt surfaces. Poor drainage can lead to standing water, which accelerates pavement deterioration. Our drainage solutions include:
- Grading and sloping to direct water away from high-traffic areas
- Catch basin installation and repair to manage water runoff
- French drains and trench drains to prevent pooling and erosion
By implementing effective drainage solutions, we help protect your investment and ensure long-term durability.
ASPHALT PAVING PROCESS
STEP 1.
DEMO & BASE PREPARATION
When our crew arrives on-site, we begin by removing the existing pavement or surface material to prepare for the new asphalt installation. Our team then:
✔ Excavates and removes old asphalt or concrete
✔ Installs and compacts a new stone base layer to provide a strong foundation
✔ Grades and levels the surface to ensure proper drainage and durability
✔ Prepares the site for inspection according to city or municipal requirements
In most cases, once the base is properly prepared, the commercial lot remains accessible for limited use until the asphalt pavement is installed.
STEP 2.
INSPECTIONS & PROJECT SCHEDULING
After the base preparation, we coordinate and schedule any necessary base inspections required by local municipalities.
✔ If an inspection is needed, we arrange for it to be completed promptly, ensuring compliance with all codes and safety standards.
✔ Once the inspection passes, we schedule the final asphalt paving within 1 to 3 days (weather permitting).
✔ If an inspection is not required, we proceed with paving at the earliest availability.
Most municipalities do not require property owners to be present during the inspection. However, we ensure all permits are visibly posted as required.
STEP 3.
ASPHALT PAVEMENT INSTALLATION
The final step involves installing the asphalt pavement to create a smooth, durable, and traffic-ready surface.
✔ Our paving crew lays and compacts the asphalt mixture, ensuring a strong and even finish.
✔ The pavement is rolled and smoothed to enhance longevity and appearance.
✔ Once completed, the area is sectioned off to allow proper curing and prevent traffic interference.
Note for property owners/managers:
✔ Contact local authorities for temporary street parking arrangements during construction.
✔ Asphalt requires a curing period before withstanding heavy loads—follow our maintenance guidelines for best results.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
AFTER PAVING COMPLETION
Drive in straight lines when entering and exiting the parking lot or driveway.
Avoid turning the steering wheel while the vehicle is stationary.
Avoid sharp objects, such as construction materials, trailers, bike stands, and high-heeled shoes, which can leave impressions.
Do not park in the same spot for extended periods during the first few weeks.
Do not drive off the pavement edges—doing so may cause cracking or structural damage.
During extended dry periods, spray water over the asphalt to prevent excessive drying and cracking.
Sealcoat the surface within six months to protect against wear and tear.
Reapply sealcoating every 2 years to extend the lifespan of your pavement.
