Commercial Lots and Asphalt Surfaces We Pave

New Parking Lot Construction

Raw sites become finished lots through excavation, stormwater-conscious grading, a compacted stone base, and asphalt placed in binder and surface courses. Each layer is sized for the vehicles your property actually sees, from customer cars to box trucks and refuse haulers.

Parking Lot Resurfacing

When a lot has a sound base but a tired, cracked surface, an asphalt overlay restores smoothness and appearance without full reconstruction. Failed areas are repaired first, edges are milled or keyed in, and the new layer bonds tightly to the old pavement.

Commercial Driveway and Entrance Paving

Entrances absorb braking, turning, and heavy truck loads more than any other part of a property. These areas get added thickness and careful joints at the street, reducing the rutting and edge breakup that makes a business look neglected from the road.

Grading and Stone Base Work

Level parking that drains correctly depends on the work done before any asphalt arrives. Subgrade is shaped to planned slopes, soft areas are removed, and graded stone is compacted in lifts to create a platform capable of carrying commercial loads.

Pothole and Utility Cut Repair

Open potholes and sunken utility trenches create trip hazards and liability concerns for any business. Damaged sections are cut square, cleaned out, rebuilt with compacted material, and paved flush with the surrounding lot so the repair holds through winter.

Phased Paving for Open Businesses

Closing an entire lot is rarely an option for stores and offices. Work is divided into planned sections, with traffic routed around active areas and paving timed to lighter hours, keeping customers, tenants, and deliveries moving throughout the project.

Why Choose Us for Commercial Asphalt & Parking Lot Paving

Lost parking means lost sales and frustrated tenants. Work windows are planned around your busiest days and hours, with sections sequenced so part of the lot stays open, which protects revenue and keeps the disruption to a short, predictable stretch.

Scheduling Around Your Hours

A single loaded delivery truck stresses pavement far more than hundreds of passenger cars combined. Designing base depth and asphalt thickness around your actual truck routes prevents the ruts and alligator cracking that appear early on lightly built lots.

Pavement Sized for Truck Traffic

Ponding water creates icy patches in winter and speeds up pavement failure in every season. Slopes are set to move runoff toward inlets and approved outlets, so your lot dries quickly after storms and customers are not stepping through puddles.

Drainage That Keeps Lots Usable

Accessible spaces and routes need gentle slopes and a firm, stable surface to serve visitors properly. Grades are planned with those needs in mind during layout, which helps property owners avoid costly corrections after the lot is already paved.

Accessible Route Awareness

Coordinating separate excavation, drainage, and paving crews adds meetings and blame when problems appear. Handling grading, base work, drainage, and asphalt under one team keeps accountability clear and gives your facilities manager a single conversation instead of three.

One Point of Contact

Commercial pavement costs far less to maintain than to rebuild. After paving, you receive a practical schedule for crack sealing, sealcoating, and inspections, helping you budget ahead and stretch the life of your investment instead of reacting to emergencies.

Long-Term Maintenance Planning

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How long before a newly paved parking lot can reopen?

    Cars can typically return within 24 to 48 hours in warm weather, once the surface has cooled and firmed up. Heavy trucks should stay off freshly paved areas longer, and cooler temperatures stretch that timeline because the mix cures slowly.

  • Can a parking lot be paved in sections so we stay open?

    Yes. Phasing is common for retail and office properties. The lot is divided into zones, one section is closed and paved while others remain open, and traffic is rerouted with cones and signage so customers can still park and enter.

  • How is a commercial lot built differently from a driveway?

    Commercial lots carry heavier and more frequent loads, so they need a deeper stone base and two asphalt layers, a binder course topped by a surface course. Drainage design and accessible parking layout also become major factors on commercial sites.

  • What does the ADA require for accessible parking spaces?

    The 2010 ADA Standards set a minimum number of accessible spaces based on lot size, require one van-accessible space for every six accessible spaces, and limit slopes within spaces and access aisles to 1:48, which keeps the surface nearly level.

  • When does a parking lot need an overlay instead of patching?

    Patching makes sense when damage is limited to scattered spots. Once cracking spreads across large areas or the surface becomes rough and raveled, Richard Cooper's All Around Asphalt recommends an overlay for King of Prussia, PA lots with sound bases.

  • How does stormwater affect parking lot design in Upper Merion Township?

    Upper Merion charges a stormwater user fee on properties with at least 500 square feet of impervious area. Richard Cooper's All Around Asphalt draws on 16+ years helping King of Prussia, PA owners plan grading and drainage around local requirements.

  • Why do parking lots develop alligator cracking?

    Alligator cracking, a pattern resembling reptile skin, signals that the base or subgrade is failing, often from water infiltration or loads heavier than the pavement was built for. Surface sealers will not fix it, so the damaged section needs rebuilding.

  • How much does heavy truck traffic shorten a lot's life?

    Pavement damage rises steeply with axle weight, so one fully loaded tractor-trailer can cause wear equal to thousands of passenger cars. Lots that serve regular deliveries or refuse trucks need thicker pavement along those routes to reach their expected lifespan.
