Parking Lot Installation Process

Here's How Your Project Actually Works

First, we assess your current pavement and drainage situation. If you’re dealing with an existing lot, we determine what can be salvaged and what needs complete replacement. For new construction, we evaluate the soil conditions and traffic requirements.

Next comes the foundation work. We excavate to the proper depth, install the base material, and ensure proper grading for drainage. This step determines whether your parking lot lasts five years or twenty years.

Then we install the asphalt or concrete, depending on your needs and budget. Hot mix asphalt goes down in lifts, gets compacted properly, and cures to the right density. Concrete requires different timing but offers longer lifespan for heavy traffic areas.

Final step includes striping, ADA compliance features, and any additional elements like wheel stops or signage. You get a parking lot that’s ready for business and built to handle your actual traffic patterns.

Asphalt and Concrete Options

What's Included in Your Project

Your parking lot paving project includes proper excavation and base preparation, which most property owners never see but makes all the difference in longevity. We handle the permits and ensure compliance with local Morgan regulations.

You get quality hot mix asphalt or concrete depending on your traffic needs and budget. Heavy commercial areas often benefit from concrete’s durability, while asphalt offers faster installation and easier future maintenance.

Drainage is built into every project because standing water destroys pavement faster than anything else. We grade for proper runoff and install catch basins where needed. Striping and ADA-compliant accessibility features are included to keep your property compliant and functional.

Most commercial projects in Morgan take 2-5 days depending on size and complexity. We coordinate timing to minimize disruption to your business operations and work around your peak hours when possible.

Most commercial parking lot projects in Morgan take 2-5 business days from start to finish. The timeline depends on the size of your lot, whether we’re doing complete replacement or resurfacing, and weather conditions. Smaller retail lots might be done in 2 days, while larger commercial complexes can take a full week. We always provide a realistic timeline upfront and work around your business hours when possible. Weather delays can extend the schedule since asphalt needs proper temperatures to cure correctly, but we’ll keep you updated on any changes.
Asphalt costs less upfront and can be installed faster, making it popular for most commercial applications. It handles freeze-thaw cycles well and is easier to repair if damage occurs. Concrete costs more initially but lasts longer, especially in high-traffic areas or where heavy trucks are common. It also reflects heat better in summer. For most Morgan businesses, asphalt provides the best value unless you have specific durability requirements or want the appearance of concrete. We’ll recommend the best option based on your traffic patterns and budget.
If you’re seeing widespread cracking, multiple potholes, or areas where the base is showing through, you likely need complete replacement. Resurfacing works when the foundation is still solid but the surface is worn or has minor cracking. We evaluate the existing base during our assessment – if it’s failed or wasn’t installed properly originally, resurfacing just delays the inevitable. Standing water or drainage issues usually indicate foundation problems that require full replacement. A proper evaluation saves you money by addressing the real problem instead of applying temporary fixes.
We plan every commercial project to minimize business disruption. For most projects, we can work in sections so part of your parking remains available. We coordinate timing around your peak business hours and can often do the heaviest work during off-hours or weekends if needed. Complete lot replacement requires temporary closure, but we work efficiently to get you back open as quickly as possible. We’ll discuss your specific operational needs during planning and create a schedule that works for your business. Most customers are surprised how manageable the process is with proper coordination.
A properly installed asphalt parking lot typically lasts 15-20 years with basic maintenance like sealcoating every 3-4 years. Concrete lasts 25-30 years or more but costs significantly more upfront. The lifespan depends heavily on traffic volume, vehicle types, and how well the base was prepared initially. New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles are hard on pavement, so proper installation and drainage are critical. We use quality materials and proper installation techniques to maximize your pavement’s lifespan. Regular maintenance like crack sealing and sealcoating can extend the life significantly and protect your investment.
Commercial parking lot paving costs vary significantly based on size, current conditions, and whether you need complete replacement or resurfacing. Asphalt typically runs $3-7 per square foot for complete replacement, while resurfacing costs $1-3 per square foot. Concrete costs $5-10 per square foot but lasts longer. Additional factors like drainage work, base repair, or extensive excavation can affect pricing. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. Most commercial projects in Morgan range from $15,000-75,000 depending on scope and size.
