What You Get With Professional Installation

Your customers notice smooth, well-maintained surfaces. They also notice cracked, potholed lots that make your business look neglected.

Professional parking lot paving gives you a surface that handles daily traffic without breaking down every few years. Proper installation means better drainage, fewer liability concerns, and a professional appearance that reflects well on your business.

You get asphalt that’s mixed and installed specifically for New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles. That means fewer cracks, less water damage, and surfaces that stay smooth longer than cheap installations that start failing after the first winter.

Parking Lot Installation Process

Here's How We Handle Your Project

Every parking lot project starts with site evaluation and proper preparation. The existing surface gets removed if necessary, and the base gets graded and compacted to handle the load requirements for your specific property.

Asphalt gets mixed to specifications that work in New Jersey weather. The installation includes proper edge work, compaction, and drainage considerations that prevent water pooling and ice formation during winter months.

Striping and marking happen after the asphalt has properly cured. This includes ADA-compliant accessibility features, clear traffic flow patterns, and durable paint that stays visible through multiple seasons. You get a complete surface that’s ready for business traffic.

Asphalt Parking Lot Services

Complete Commercial Paving Services

Platinum Paving handles new parking lot installation, complete resurfacing, and major repair work. Services include site preparation, base work, asphalt installation, and professional striping.

We work with different asphalt mixes depending on your traffic requirements and budget. Heavy-duty commercial lots get different specifications than light-traffic areas, and the installation process adjusts accordingly.

Projects include proper drainage solutions, ADA compliance features, and coordination with local permit requirements. We schedule work to minimize disruption to your business operations and handle cleanup so you’re ready for customers when the job’s complete.

How long does commercial parking lot paving take to complete?

Most commercial parking lots take 2-5 days depending on size and complexity. Small lots under 5,000 square feet typically get completed in 2-3 days, while larger installations can take up to a week. Weather affects timing since asphalt can’t be installed in rain or extreme temperatures. We provide realistic timelines upfront and coordinate scheduling to minimize business disruption. The asphalt needs 24-48 hours before it’s ready for regular traffic, though you can usually walk on it within a few hours.

What's the difference between resurfacing and complete parking lot replacement?

Resurfacing adds a new asphalt layer over existing pavement that’s structurally sound but showing surface wear. It’s less expensive and faster than full replacement. Complete replacement removes the old asphalt and rebuilds from the base up. You need full replacement when the existing lot has major structural problems, severe cracking, or drainage issues that can’t be fixed with surface work. We evaluate your current lot condition and recommend the most cost-effective approach that gives you long-term results.

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

Commercial asphalt paving typically runs $3-7 per square foot depending on thickness requirements, site conditions, and project size. New installation costs more than resurfacing. Factors affecting price include excavation needs, base preparation requirements, asphalt thickness, and accessibility for equipment. Larger projects cost less per square foot than small repairs. We provide detailed estimates that break down material and labor costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for and can budget accordingly.

Can you pave parking lots during winter months in New Jersey?

Asphalt installation requires temperatures above 50 degrees and dry conditions. In New Jersey, this usually means paving season runs from April through November, though mild winter days occasionally allow for emergency repairs. Cold weather prevents proper asphalt compaction and bonding. We schedule most commercial projects during optimal weather windows but can handle urgent repairs when conditions permit. Planning your parking lot project for spring through fall ensures the best installation conditions and longest-lasting results.

Do you handle ADA compliance and parking lot striping?

Yes, we include ADA-compliant accessibility features and professional striping with parking lot installations. This includes proper accessible parking space dimensions, access aisles, signage placement, and pathway connections to building entrances. Striping uses high-quality paint designed for New Jersey weather conditions. We understand current ADA requirements and local code compliance. Proper striping and accessibility features are essential for commercial properties, and we handle these details as part of complete parking lot projects.

How long will a new commercial parking lot last before needing major work?

Properly installed commercial asphalt parking lots typically last 15-25 years before needing major resurfacing, depending on traffic volume and maintenance. Heavy-traffic areas like loading zones may need attention sooner, while light-use sections can last longer. Regular maintenance like crack sealing and occasional patching extends pavement life significantly. New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles are hard on asphalt, but quality installation with proper drainage and appropriate thickness handles these conditions well. We design installations to maximize lifespan based on your specific traffic requirements and climate exposure.
