Parking Lot Installation Process

How We Handle Your Project

We start with a site evaluation to assess your current pavement and drainage needs. You’ll get a clear timeline and know exactly what to expect before we start.

Proper base preparation is critical. We excavate to the right depth, install proper stone base, and ensure correct grading for drainage. This foundation work determines how long your parking lot will last.

We schedule asphalt installation around your business needs. Most commercial parking lots can be paved in sections to keep part of your lot accessible. We coordinate with you to minimize disruption during your busy hours.

Final striping and marking happen after the asphalt cures. You get crisp lines, proper spacing, and ADA-compliant accessibility features that meet local requirements.

Complete Commercial Paving Solutions

Our parking lot paving services include everything from full installation to resurfacing existing lots. We handle excavation, base preparation, asphalt installation, and final striping in one coordinated project.

For lots that need updating but not complete replacement, we offer parking lot resurfacing. This involves adding a new layer of asphalt over properly prepared existing pavement. It’s often more cost-effective than full reconstruction.

We also handle concrete parking lot paving for specific applications where concrete makes more sense than asphalt. Each project gets evaluated individually to recommend the best material for your situation, traffic load, and budget.

How long does commercial parking lot paving take to complete?

Most commercial parking lots take 2-5 days depending on size and complexity. A typical retail center parking lot can be completed in 3 days – one day for excavation and base work, one day for asphalt installation, and one day for final grading and striping. Larger projects or those requiring extensive drainage work may take longer. We provide specific timelines during the estimate process and work with you to schedule around your business needs. Weather can affect timing since asphalt installation requires dry conditions and temperatures above 50 degrees.

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

Asphalt is typically more cost-effective and handles freeze-thaw cycles better than concrete in New Jersey’s climate. It’s also easier to repair if damage occurs. Concrete lasts longer but costs more upfront and can crack in cold weather. For most commercial applications in Parker, asphalt provides the best value. Concrete makes sense for heavy-duty applications like loading docks or areas with constant truck traffic. We evaluate your specific traffic patterns, budget, and long-term needs to recommend the right material for your situation.

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

Commercial parking lot paving typically ranges from $3-7 per square foot depending on thickness requirements, base preparation needed, and site conditions. A standard retail parking lot usually runs $4-5 per square foot for complete installation. Costs vary based on excavation depth, drainage requirements, and accessibility to the site. Resurfacing existing lots costs less, typically $2-4 per square foot. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Factors like utility conflicts, landscaping, and striping complexity can affect final pricing.

Can you pave our parking lot without closing our business?

Yes, we can usually phase the work to keep part of your parking lot accessible during business hours. We section off areas and complete the work in stages, allowing customer and employee access throughout the project. For restaurants and retail businesses, we often work early mornings or coordinate around your peak hours. The key is planning the logistics upfront. Some businesses choose to schedule paving during slower periods or temporary closures, but it’s not always necessary. We’ll work with you to develop a plan that minimizes disruption to your operations while ensuring quality installation.

How long before we can drive on new asphalt pavement?

You can typically drive on new asphalt within 24-48 hours after installation, depending on weather conditions and asphalt thickness. Light vehicle traffic is usually fine after one day, but we recommend waiting 48-72 hours before allowing heavy trucks or delivery vehicles. Hot weather requires longer curing time. The asphalt continues to harden for several months, reaching full strength in about 6-12 months. We provide specific guidance based on your traffic needs and weather conditions. Proper curing is important for long-term durability, so following our recommendations helps ensure your investment lasts.

Do you handle drainage issues when installing parking lots?

Yes, proper drainage is a critical part of every parking lot installation. We evaluate existing drainage patterns and design the new lot to direct water away from buildings and prevent pooling. This includes proper grading, installing catch basins where needed, and connecting to existing storm water systems. Poor drainage is one of the main causes of premature pavement failure, so we don’t skip this step. If your current lot has drainage problems, we identify and fix them during the paving process. All drainage work is included in our project planning and pricing from the start.
