Asphalt and Concrete Options

What's Included in Your Project

Every parking lot paving project includes proper site preparation, base installation, and surface application using materials suited for commercial traffic. We handle both asphalt and concrete installations depending on your needs and budget.

Drainage design prevents the water problems that destroy parking lots in this area. Proper grading, catch basins where needed, and attention to runoff patterns. Your lot won’t turn into a pond after heavy rain or create ice hazards in winter.

Line striping, ADA compliance, and finishing details are part of the complete package. Your parking lot meets code requirements and functions properly from day one. No surprise add-ons or incomplete work.

Most commercial parking lot projects take 3-7 days depending on size and complexity. Weather plays a role – we won’t pour asphalt in rain or when temperatures are too low. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if conditions change. For larger projects, we can often work in phases to keep part of your lot available for customers. The key is planning around your business needs rather than rushing through and compromising quality.
Asphalt costs less upfront and handles freeze-thaw cycles better, which matters in Long Valley winters. It’s easier to repair if damage occurs. Concrete lasts longer and handles heavy loads better, but costs more initially and can crack in extreme temperature changes. For most commercial applications, asphalt makes more sense unless you have specific heavy-duty requirements. We’ll recommend what works best for your traffic patterns, budget, and long-term plans.
Commercial parking lot paving typically runs $3-7 per square foot for asphalt, depending on site conditions and project size. Concrete runs higher, usually $5-10 per square foot. The real cost factors are site preparation needs, drainage requirements, and access challenges. A lot that needs extensive base work costs more than one with good existing conditions. We provide detailed estimates after evaluating your specific site rather than giving ballpark numbers that don’t reflect reality.
Yes, we regularly work around active businesses. The approach depends on your lot layout and traffic patterns. We can phase the work to keep sections available, work during off-hours, or provide temporary access routes. The key is planning this upfront rather than figuring it out during construction. We’ve handled everything from busy retail centers to medical offices where patient access is critical. It takes more coordination, but keeping your business running is worth the extra effort.
You can typically drive on new asphalt within 24-48 hours, but it continues curing for several months. We’ll tell you exactly when it’s safe to open based on weather conditions and the specific mix used. Hot weather means longer wait times. Concrete takes longer initially – usually 7 days before full traffic. Heavy trucks or equipment may need additional cure time. We don’t leave you guessing about when you can resume normal operations.
Seal coating every 3-5 years protects asphalt from weather and extends its life significantly. Crack sealing should happen promptly when small cracks appear – waiting turns minor issues into major repairs. Keep the surface clean and ensure drainage systems stay clear. Line striping typically needs refreshing every few years depending on traffic. We can handle ongoing maintenance or provide guidance for your facilities team. Regular attention prevents the expensive problems that come from neglect.
