Parking Lot Installation Process

Here's How Your Project Happens

First, we evaluate your existing pavement and drainage to determine whether you need full replacement, resurfacing, or targeted repairs. This assessment includes measuring the area and checking the foundation condition.

Next comes site preparation, which involves removing old pavement if necessary, grading the base, and ensuring proper drainage. For asphalt projects, this includes compacting the aggregate base to prevent future settling.

Finally, the new pavement gets installed using commercial-grade materials designed for your traffic load. Asphalt gets applied in layers and compacted, while concrete requires proper curing time. Line striping and final details complete the project.

Asphalt Concrete Parking Lot Services

Complete Parking Lot Solutions Available

Our service includes both asphalt and concrete parking lot installation for new construction and replacement projects. Asphalt provides cost-effective durability for most commercial applications, while concrete offers longer lifespan for heavy-traffic areas.

Resurfacing extends the life of existing pavement when the foundation remains solid. This option costs less than full replacement while addressing surface cracking and wear issues that make parking lots look unprofessional.

Repair services handle specific problem areas like potholes, drainage issues, and localized cracking. Quick repairs prevent small problems from becoming expensive full-scale replacements while maintaining safe access for customers and employees.

Most commercial parking lot projects take 3-7 days depending on size and scope. Small lots under 5,000 square feet often get completed in 2-3 days, while larger shopping center lots may require a full week. Weather conditions can extend timelines, especially for concrete work that needs proper curing time. We schedule work to minimize disruption to your business operations, often completing sections so customer access remains available throughout the project.
Asphalt costs less upfront and handles New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles well, making it ideal for most commercial applications. It’s easier to repair and can be resurfaced every 15-20 years to extend its life. Concrete costs more initially but lasts 25-30 years with minimal maintenance, making it cost-effective for high-traffic areas like loading docks or heavy truck zones. Your decision should factor in traffic volume, budget, and long-term maintenance preferences.
Resurfacing works when your existing foundation remains structurally sound but the surface shows wear, minor cracking, or weathering. This process involves applying a new layer of asphalt over the prepared existing surface, costing 40-60% less than full replacement. However, if you have significant foundation issues, drainage problems, or extensive cracking, full replacement provides better long-term value. A site evaluation determines which approach makes sense for your specific situation.
Proper drainage starts with correct grading during site preparation to direct water away from buildings and prevent pooling. We install catch basins, drainage pipes, and proper slopes as needed to manage stormwater runoff. Poor drainage destroys pavement quickly in New Jersey’s climate, so this step can’t be skipped or done cheaply. Existing drainage systems get evaluated and upgraded if necessary to ensure your new pavement doesn’t develop premature failure from standing water.
New asphalt parking lots need sealcoating every 2-3 years to protect against weather and chemical damage from vehicle fluids. Crack sealing should happen promptly when small cracks appear to prevent water infiltration and expansion. Snow removal requires care to avoid damage from plows and salt. Concrete lots need less frequent maintenance but benefit from joint sealing and occasional cleaning. Regular maintenance extends pavement life significantly and costs far less than premature replacement.
Yes, all commercial parking lot installations must meet ADA accessibility requirements including proper slope grades, designated accessible parking spaces, and compliant access routes to building entrances. The number of required accessible spaces depends on your total parking capacity, and these spaces need specific dimensions and signage. Van-accessible spaces require additional width and clearance. Compliance isn’t optional for commercial properties, and proper installation prevents costly modifications later when accessibility issues get identified during inspections.
