Parking Lot Installation Process

How We Handle Your Project

First, we assess your site and discuss your specific needs. Every property is different, so we take measurements and evaluate drainage requirements, traffic patterns, and any special considerations for your business.

Next comes proper site preparation. This is where many contractors cut corners, but it’s the foundation of a long-lasting parking lot. We excavate to the right depth, install proper base materials, and ensure correct grading for drainage.

Then we install your asphalt or concrete surface using quality materials designed for commercial traffic loads. We handle line striping, ADA compliance, and any special markings your business requires. The result is a professional surface ready for immediate use.

Most commercial parking lot projects take 3-7 days depending on size and complexity. Weather conditions can extend timelines, especially for asphalt work which requires specific temperature ranges. We provide realistic schedules upfront and keep you informed of any changes. The key is proper planning – we coordinate with your business schedule to minimize disruption during peak hours. Smaller resurfacing jobs might be completed in 1-2 days, while larger new installations with extensive base work take longer.
Asphalt is typically more cost-effective and handles New Jersey’s freeze-thaw cycles well when properly installed. It’s easier to repair and can be resurfaced when needed. Concrete costs more upfront but lasts longer and handles heavy loads better. It also offers more design options for appearance. For most commercial applications in our area, asphalt provides the best balance of durability and cost-effectiveness. We’ll recommend the best option based on your specific traffic patterns, budget, and long-term plans.
Proper drainage starts with correct grading during site preparation. We slope the surface to direct water away from buildings and toward designated drainage areas. This might include catch basins, drainage pipes, or retention areas depending on your site. Poor drainage is one of the biggest causes of premature parking lot failure, so we pay close attention to this during the design phase. We also consider local stormwater management requirements which vary by municipality in central New Jersey.
Yes, we understand that your business operations come first. We can often schedule work during off-hours, weekends, or in phases that keep portions of your lot accessible. For retail businesses, we might work early mornings or evenings. For office complexes, weekends often work best. The key is planning ahead so we can coordinate equipment and crew schedules. Some work like final paving needs to happen during specific weather windows, but we work with you to find the best timing.
Costs vary significantly based on size, site conditions, and material choices. New installation typically costs more than resurfacing existing lots in good condition. Factors that affect pricing include excavation requirements, base material needs, drainage work, and accessibility features. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. Most commercial parking lot projects in our area range from several thousand to tens of thousands depending on scope.
A properly installed asphalt parking lot should last 15-25 years with regular maintenance like sealcoating and crack filling. Concrete lots often last 25-30 years or more. The key is quality installation – proper base preparation and using the right materials for your specific conditions. Regular maintenance extends life significantly and costs much less than premature replacement. We recommend sealcoating asphalt every 3-5 years and addressing small cracks promptly to prevent water infiltration and larger problems.
