Our 3-Step Parking Lot Paving Process

Our Simple Paving Process Provides Exceptional Results

We’ve developed a straightforward and efficient process for parking lot paving, refined over 25 years and three generations in the paving business. Our family’s commitment to quality and attention to detail has allowed us to perfect a method that ensures every project is durable and smooth.

Step 1: Preparation and Evaluation

Before we begin any paving project, we inspect and prepare.

Thorough preparation and evaluation are very important because they set the foundation for a successful project. By carefully inspecting the current state of the parking lot, we can identify any existing damage or debris that needs attention. Finding these issues before work starts helps prevent future problems, and ensures we can pave a smooth, even surface. This step also involves planning for proper drainage and marking utility lines, which is essential to avoid complications like water pooling.

Assessment: We start by carefully inspecting the current condition of your parking lot. This helps us identify any existing damage or debris that needs to be addressed.

Clearing and Surface Milling: If there’s existing asphalt, we remove it down to the subgrade layer. This step ensures a stable foundation for the new pavement. By eliminating old, damaged asphalt, we prevent future cracks and issues from reappearing. Clearing the area of all debris ensures the new surface adheres properly and lasts longer.

Step 2: Grading and Base Layer Installation

Creating a solid foundation is an important factor for the lifespan of your parking lot.

A solid foundation is important because it supports the entire parking lot structure. It ensures that the asphalt can handle heavy traffic and withstand various weather conditions. If the base isn't stable, the surface may crack or sink, leading to costly repairs. Grading and compacting the subgrade and base layers properly are vital to prevent these issues, ensuring that the parking lot remains durable and functional for years to come.

Subgrade Inspection: We inspect the subgrade for any instability or flaws. If necessary, we replace it with high-quality aggregate to provide a strong foundation. This step is critical because any weakness in the subgrade can lead to issues down the line.

Grading and Compacting: Proper grading ensures that water will drain correctly from the surface. We compact the base layer thoroughly, ensuring it is solid and stable. This prevents future problems like sinking or cracking, which can compromise the integrity of the parking lot.

Step 3: Asphalt Pouring, Compaction, and Marking

The final step involves laying and finishing the asphalt.

The final step, laying and finishing the asphalt, is where everything comes together. This step is important because it affects the surface's smoothness, appearance, and functionality. Proper asphalt pouring creates a uniform layer that looks good and provides a safe driving surface. Compaction ensures the asphalt is solid and resistant to wear and tear. Finally, adding clear and precise pavement markings organizes the parking spaces, enhancing safety and usability. This attention to detail ensures the finished project meets our high standards and exceeds your expectations.

Asphalt Pouring: We bring hot asphalt mix to the site and lay it in smooth, even passes. This process is closely monitored to ensure a uniform surface and proper drainage. Our experience allows us to adjust on the fly, ensuring each pass is perfect.

Compaction: Using heavy rollers, we compact the new asphalt to ensure it is durable and long-lasting. Proper compaction is essential for the asphalt to withstand heavy use and varying weather conditions.

Pavement Marking: Once the asphalt is laid and compacted, we add clear and precise parking space lines and other necessary markings. This final step ensures a professional appearance and optimal functionality for your parking lot. Bright, well-marked lines make it easy for customers to navigate the lot, enhancing safety and organization

Parking Lot FAQ

Yes, regular maintenance is necessary to keep your parking lot in great condition. Calgary's weather can be unpredictable, causing asphalt to crack. If these cracks aren't fixed quickly, they can turn into potholes. Common maintenance tasks include sweeping to remove debris, sealing cracks and joints to prevent water damage, and applying a new sealcoat every few years to protect against UV rays and oil spills.

The duration of the paving process depends on several factors, such as the size of the area, site complexity, and weather conditions. Typically, paving projects are completed within 2 to 3 days. After paving, an additional 1 to 2 days are needed for the asphalt to cure properly. For larger or more complex projects, it may take longer, especially if extensive preparation or grading is required. Our process includes clearing the area of debris, grading for proper drainage, inspecting and replacing the subgrade if needed, pouring hot asphalt, compacting it, and adding precise pavement markings

The cost to pave a parking lot varies based on factors such as the size of the lot, the condition of the existing surface, and specific project needs. On average, paving a parking lot costs between $3 to $7 per square foot. For example, paving a 10-car parking lot might range from $9,000 to $21,000. Larger lots will have higher costs, especially if they include features like striping, curbing, and drainage systems. The total cost can be influenced by the materials used, the complexity of the design, and any necessary site preparations. Regional pricing variations and the quality of asphalt can also impact the expense. Our detailed quoting process ensures transparency and helps you understand where your investment is going.
