Who This Is For
Who Uses Commercial Asphalt Paving
Commercial property owners and developers call us for asphalt paving on new lots, replacement of cracked and potholed pavement, and commercial drive areas. If your parking lot is full of potholes and alligator cracking, replacement is usually the right call. New developments need a lot paved from the base up, and property owners upgrading an older lot often repave to improve curb appeal and safety.

Choosing the Right Option
How to Decide What You Need
A new parking lot is a full build — base, paving, and layout — for a site that doesn't have one yet. Replacement tears out failed asphalt and repaves on a rebuilt base when patching won't hold. The right approach depends on whether the base underneath is still sound or has failed too. We assess the existing pavement and base and tell you whether you need a surface repave or a full reconstruction.
What to Know
Requirements & What to Expect
- Asphalt paving needs a properly prepared and compacted base, good drainage design so water doesn't pool and destroy the pavement, and the right weather for placement — asphalt needs warm enough temperatures to compact properly. We need site access for paving equipment and trucks, and new asphalt needs cooling time before traffic. We handle base prep, paving, and compaction.
- Clear access for the concrete truck and our crew to reach the pour area.

Questions & Answers
Commercial Asphalt Paving FAQ
Real questions customers ask about this specific service.
How long does a commercial asphalt parking lot last?+
A well-built lot on a proper base with good drainage typically lasts 15 to 20 years, with sealcoating and maintenance extending that life.
Should I resurface or replace my parking lot?+
If the base is sound and damage is surface-level, resurfacing can work. If there's alligator cracking, potholes, or base failure, full replacement on a rebuilt base is the lasting fix. We assess both.
When is the best time to pave asphalt?+
Asphalt needs warm temperatures to compact properly, so paving season in Illinois runs roughly spring through early fall. Cold weather paving is limited and less ideal.
Does my parking lot need a new base?+
If the existing base has failed — shown by widespread cracking, settling, or potholes — repaving over it won't last. We rebuild the base as part of a proper replacement.
How soon can cars park on new asphalt?+
New asphalt needs to cool and set — typically a few hours to a day depending on weather and thickness — before it takes vehicle traffic. We'll tell you when it's safe.
Do you handle parking lot layout and striping?+
We handle the paving and coordinate layout; striping is typically done after the asphalt cures so the lines lay down clean on the new surface.
