How long does commercial parking lot paving take to complete?

Most commercial parking lot projects take 3-7 days depending on size and complexity. Smaller lots under 5,000 square feet typically finish in 2-3 days, while larger commercial installations may require a full week. Weather conditions can affect timing, especially during New Jersey’s unpredictable spring and fall seasons. We provide a detailed timeline before starting and communicate any schedule adjustments immediately. Most businesses can resume normal parking within 24-48 hours after paving completion, though full curing takes longer.

What's the difference between asphalt and concrete for parking lots?

Asphalt costs less upfront and handles freeze-thaw cycles better, making it popular for New Jersey commercial properties. It’s easier to repair and can be resurfaced when needed. Concrete lasts longer and handles heavy loads better but costs more initially and can crack in extreme temperature changes. For most Franklin Center businesses, asphalt provides the best balance of durability and cost-effectiveness. The choice often depends on expected traffic volume, budget, and long-term maintenance preferences.

How much does commercial parking lot paving cost per square foot?

Commercial parking lot paving typically runs $3-7 per square foot for asphalt and $5-10 for concrete, but several factors affect final pricing. Site preparation requirements, drainage needs, and accessibility features can increase costs. Larger projects often have lower per-square-foot rates due to economies of scale. Resurfacing existing lots costs less than complete reconstruction. The best approach is getting a detailed estimate based on your specific property conditions and requirements rather than relying on general pricing ranges.

Can you pave during business hours or do we need to close?

Most parking lot paving requires temporary closure of the work area, but the project can often be phased to maintain some parking availability. For businesses that can’t afford full closure, we can schedule work during off-hours or weekends, though this may affect project timeline and cost. We work with you to develop a staging plan that minimizes customer impact. Emergency access is always maintained, and alternative parking arrangements can be coordinated when necessary.

How long will a new commercial parking lot last?

A properly installed asphalt parking lot typically lasts 15-20 years with regular maintenance, while concrete can last 25-30 years. New Jersey’s climate creates additional challenges with freeze-thaw cycles that can shorten lifespan without proper installation and drainage. Regular seal coating every 3-5 years and prompt crack repair significantly extend pavement life. Heavy traffic areas may need more frequent attention, but quality initial installation and base preparation are the most important factors for longevity.

Do you handle permits and ADA compliance requirements?

Yes, we handle all necessary permits and ensure full ADA compliance for commercial parking lots. This includes proper handicap space placement, access aisle requirements, and connection to accessible building entrances. Franklin Center has specific requirements that must be met, and we stay current on all local codes. The permit process typically adds 1-2 weeks to project timeline, so early planning is important. All work is inspected to ensure compliance before project completion.
