What You Get With Professional Paving

Your parking lot becomes an asset, not a liability. No more worrying about customers hitting potholes or employees tripping on cracked pavement.

You get a surface built to handle New Jersey winters and summer heat. The kind that doesn’t crack apart after the first freeze-thaw cycle or start showing wear after a few months of traffic.

Your property looks like a place people want to do business. Clean lines, proper drainage, and a surface that actually enhances your building instead of detracting from it. That’s what happens when commercial paving gets done right the first time.

Commercial Paving Process

How We Handle Your Project

First, we assess your site and discuss timing that works with your business schedule. No surprises about what needs to happen or when.

Next comes proper preparation. We handle excavation, grading, and base installation to ensure your new asphalt has the foundation it needs. Skipping these steps is where most paving jobs fail.

Then we install your asphalt using the right thickness for your traffic load. We’re not laying down a thin layer and hoping it holds up. We’re building a surface designed for your specific needs.

Finally, we handle striping, marking, and any final details to get your parking lot ready for use. You get a finished product that looks professional and functions properly from day one.

How long does commercial paving take to complete?

Most commercial paving projects take 2-5 days depending on size and complexity. We schedule work to minimize disruption to your business operations. Weather can affect timing, especially during installation and curing phases. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if conditions change. The key is proper planning so you can arrange alternative parking or access routes if needed.

What's the difference between resurfacing and complete replacement?

Resurfacing adds a new layer of asphalt over existing pavement when the base is still solid. Complete replacement involves removing old asphalt and rebuilding from the base up. We recommend resurfacing when you have minor surface issues but good underlying structure. Replacement is necessary when you have base failure, major drainage problems, or extensive cracking throughout the existing pavement.

How do you handle drainage in commercial parking lots?

Proper drainage starts with correct grading during installation. We slope the surface to direct water toward catch basins or designated drainage areas. Poor drainage destroys asphalt through freeze-thaw cycles and base erosion. We also install or repair catch basins and ensure proper connection to storm water systems. Getting drainage right during initial construction prevents most major pavement problems later.

What thickness of asphalt do commercial properties need?

Commercial asphalt thickness depends on your traffic load and soil conditions. Light commercial areas typically need 2-3 inches over a proper base. Heavy traffic areas or locations with delivery trucks require 3-4 inches or more. We evaluate your specific situation including soil bearing capacity, expected traffic, and vehicle types. Proper thickness prevents premature cracking and extends pavement life significantly.

When is the best time of year for commercial paving?

Late spring through early fall provides the best conditions for asphalt installation. We need temperatures above 50 degrees for proper compaction and curing. Summer heat can actually make installation more challenging, so late spring and early fall are often ideal. Winter paving is possible but requires special considerations. We recommend planning major projects for shoulder seasons when weather is more predictable.

How long before we can use the new parking lot?

You can typically drive on new asphalt within 24-48 hours under normal conditions. Full curing takes several weeks, so we recommend avoiding heavy loads or sharp turns during this period. Hot weather extends curing time, while cooler temperatures help asphalt firm up faster. We’ll give you specific guidance based on weather conditions and your particular installation. Proper curing prevents premature wear and damage.
