Liability addressed first
Potholes and broken sections in a lot the public walks across are a claim risk with your name on it. Those get triaged ahead of cosmetics.
Property & facilities managers
A car park is an asset and a liability at the same time.
For a commercial property the pavement is both the first impression a customer gets and the largest slip-trip surface you are responsible for. Both of those argue for the same thing: a maintenance schedule rather than a replacement event.
What is different about it
Commercial Parking Lots: the four things that matter.
Phased so you stay open
Most lots can be worked in sections so trading continues. Tell us your quiet days and how many spaces you have to keep live, and the sequence gets built around that.
A five-year plan, in writing
What needs doing now, what can wait, what the cycle costs annually. Capital planning is easier with a number you can put in a budget.
Sealcoating on the shorter cycle
Traffic volume and oil drip mean commercial lots generally want the two-year end of the two-to-three-year sealcoating range, not the three.
What this usually needs
One call covers the surface.
Most jobs are two of these together — seal the cracks and then seal the surface, patch the holes and then overlay. Doing them in the right order is most of what makes them last.
Still not sure?
Questions we get asked.
What types of asphalt services do you offer?
A full range of asphalt services: paving, resurfacing, sealcoating, crack sealing, pothole patching and asphalt repairs — for residential, commercial and municipal projects alike.
How long does it take for new asphalt to cure?
Asphalt dries within 24 to 48 hours, but it takes about 6 to 12 months to fully cure. During that time, avoid heavy loads and sharp turns to maintain the best surface quality.
How often should I sealcoat my driveway or parking lot?
We recommend sealcoating every 2 to 3 years to protect your asphalt from UV rays, water damage and cracks, helping extend its lifespan and maintain a fresh appearance.
What causes potholes, and how can I prevent them?
Potholes form due to water infiltration, freeze-thaw cycles and heavy traffic. Regular maintenance, such as crack sealing and sealcoating, can prevent potholes and prolong the life of your asphalt.
How do I know if my asphalt needs resurfacing or full replacement?
If your asphalt has widespread cracking, potholes or structural issues, resurfacing — adding a new asphalt layer — may be a cost-effective solution. However, if the foundation is severely damaged, a full replacement might be necessary. We offer free assessments to determine the best option for you.
