Commercial parking lot paving isn't a job you want to entrust to just anyone. Your parking lot is one of the first points of contact customers have with your business and how it looks and functions can impact your bottom line.
A well maintained, clean and evenly paved lot with quality asphalt tells your customers that you value their entire customer experienace and appreciate their patronage, from door to door.
If you're in need of a parking lot expansion or upgrade and you're wondering what features define a quality commercial parking lot paving job, familiarize yourself with these important technical principles.
Four Key Features of Good Commercial Parking Lot Paving
In simple terms, the features that define a quality paving job can be broken down into four categories:
#1 Smooth integration of existing pavement.
If you want to expand an existing parking lot, or integrate existing pavement into a refurbished, precision saw-cutting is an essential first step. The smooth transition form old pavement to new, is important for the consturction of any high-quality pavement project. Learn more about this process with these helpful case studies:
#2 A good gravel base.
Did you know? The most important part of your new asphalt parking lot is the sub-base. Without a proper gravel foundation, the parking lot will buckle under the weight of vehicle traffic. Installation of sub-base takes experience and percision. Take a look at these additional resources to learn more:
#3 Proper drainage.
Water needs to have somewhere to go. Carefully designed drainage systems prevent buildups of standing water and long-term damage to the parking lot. Learn more:
