We’ve been handling parking lot projects throughout Milltown and central New Jersey for years. We understand how freeze-thaw cycles destroy poorly installed pavement and how to build surfaces that actually survive our winters.

You’re dealing with a local company that knows Milltown’s soil conditions, drainage challenges, and exactly what it takes to create parking lots that last in this climate.

Parking Lot Installation Process

Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we assess your site conditions, drainage needs, and traffic requirements. This isn’t a quick walk-around – we’re looking at soil stability, water flow patterns, and how heavy your traffic load will be.

Next comes proper site preparation. We excavate to the right depth, install proper base materials, and ensure drainage works correctly. This foundation work determines whether your parking lot lasts five years or twenty.

Then we install your new asphalt or concrete surface using the right thickness for your specific traffic needs. We handle everything from line striping to final cleanup, so you can focus on running your business instead of managing construction details.

Asphalt and Concrete Options

What's Included in Your Project

Every parking lot paving project includes proper site evaluation, excavation, base preparation, and surface installation. We handle both asphalt parking lot paving and concrete parking lot paving depending on your needs and budget.

For commercial properties in Milltown, we often recommend asphalt for its cost-effectiveness and easier repair options. Concrete works better for areas with extremely heavy truck traffic or where you need maximum durability.

We also handle parking lot resurfacing when your existing base is solid but the surface needs renewal. This option saves money while giving you a fresh, professional appearance that extends your pavement’s life significantly.

A properly installed asphalt parking lot typically lasts 15-20 years in New Jersey’s climate, while concrete can last 25-30 years. The key is proper installation with adequate base preparation and thickness for your traffic load. Cheap installations often fail within 5-7 years because they skip critical foundation work. Regular sealcoating every 3-4 years can extend asphalt life significantly, while concrete requires minimal maintenance but costs more upfront.
Asphalt costs less initially and handles freeze-thaw cycles better, making it ideal for most Milltown commercial properties. It’s easier to repair and can be resurfaced when needed. Concrete costs more upfront but lasts longer and handles extremely heavy traffic better. For most businesses, asphalt provides the best value unless you have constant heavy truck traffic or want to minimize long-term maintenance. We’ll recommend the best option based on your specific traffic patterns and budget.
Most parking lot installations take 2-4 days depending on size and complexity. We can often phase the work to keep part of your parking available, or schedule around your business hours when possible. You’ll need to stay off the new surface for 24-48 hours after installation. We coordinate with you beforehand to minimize customer impact and can work weekends for businesses that can’t afford weekday disruption. Proper planning usually keeps business disruption to a minimum.
Poor drainage is the biggest killer of parking lots in our climate. Water that can’t drain properly freezes, expands, and cracks the surface. Inadequate base preparation and using the wrong thickness for traffic load also cause early failure. Many contractors skip proper excavation or use substandard materials to cut costs. New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles are particularly hard on pavement, so proper installation techniques and materials designed for our climate are essential for longevity.
Resurfacing works when your existing base is structurally sound but the surface is worn or cracked. We evaluate the foundation, drainage, and overall condition to determine if resurfacing is viable. This option typically costs 40-60% less than full replacement and can add 10-15 years of life. However, if you have base problems, drainage issues, or extensive cracking, full replacement is usually more cost-effective long-term. We’ll give you an honest assessment of which approach makes sense for your situation.
Yes, we handle all line striping, handicap spaces, and ADA compliance requirements as part of our parking lot installation service. We know current ADA standards for parking space dimensions, access aisles, and pathway requirements. This includes proper slopes, signage placement, and accessibility routes. Getting compliance right during installation prevents costly modifications later. We also handle any local permit requirements and ensure your parking lot meets all current regulations for commercial properties in Milltown.
