Commercial Paving Services
Parking lot repair of potholes, cracks, depressions…
- Potholes begin with slight cracks caused by the expansion and contraction of the ground during winter (freeze and thaw cycles) or stresses put on the pavement by heavy traffic. These slight cracks in the pavement allow water penetration of the subbase structure weakening it into collapse which is then reflected up to the asphalt pavement. They can also be the result of missing chunks of alligator pavement. Pothole repair will remove the defective asphalt down to a stable base, square off the hole vertically, apply tack coat, fill with asphalt mix and finally, compaction of asphalt fill.
- Experienced asphalt pavers during the pavement inspection can probably figure out what’s wrong in a heartbeat and then explain the problem and possible solutions to the client. We always suggest the least expensive fix first and after explaining its pros and cons we move on to more expensive fixes. Our goal is to apprise you of all repair options available including the pros and cons then we let you decide your best solution while staying available for further questions.
New parking lot installation- its design and build
- Parking Lot Beginnings:
- Many times commercial buildings are a wonder to behold and much time, money and effort was spent in its design but sometimes their parking lots are woefully inadequate and soon show signs of deterioration. The first and last impression of customers, potential customers, visitors, and employees are viewed from the parking lot- it is the gateway though which all pass. An aesthetically pleasing building will be overshadowed by an ill-conceived parking lot that does not move traffic well, such as parking lanes abruptly ending without a way to turn around, entrance hampered by turning vehicles, awkward empty spaces not marked that end up as free for all uses (including dumping), light poles or signs sharing marked parking space, and confusing pavement markings. We have all driven in such parking lots and afterwards tend to avoid them.
- Our free inspection and resulting quote will consider clients’ needs, desires, cost, longevity and appearance. We will give you the tools you need to decide the most cost effect and appropriate installation that will provide years of trouble free parking lot service for your property and enhance its value.
Resurfacing or Renewal
- Resurfacing an Asphalt parking lot or road is a more attractive financial option for those property owners on a tight budget when total replacement is not needed yet crack repairs are too numerous to be attempted. Basically, resurfacing is adding 1 or 2 layers of 2-inch-deep asphalt that has been compacted onto the old pavement. Renewal of Asphalt roads and parking lots through resurfacing or overlaying will extend its functional life and renew its beauty.
- Resurfacing has several advantages over total replacement: it’s a quicker process (businesses will not have to shut down for weeks), increased pavement lifespan (8 to 15 years), less expensive, in many cases, 2/3 the cost of complete replacement, and the results are attractive- looking like new.
Pavement markings and signage
- Easy to follow pavement markings and traffic safety signs provides quick directional flow of motor vehicles through a parking lot to a parking spot. Without directions traffic moving through a parking would cause a great deal of confusion, fender benders, safety of pedestrians and horrible parking skills.
- We offer paint striping for parking spots, no parking zones, crosswalks, loading zones, handicap accessible spaces and all specialized signs, such as moms with small children, employee of the month and others.
Grading
- Excavation and Site Preparation: Land clearing and tree removal. Soil conditions and drainage issues will have to be address Low-quality soil can be improved by adding stable granular products, such as lime, crushed rock or recycled asphalt, and crushed shells. All vegetation and debris should be removed and area treated with a vegetation retardant.
- Parking lots are a large landscape of flat pavement that naturally shed a lot of water which must be guided away from the pavement to prevent ponding and other issues. It is important to send the water to proper drainage rather than letting it gather under the subgrade soil of the parking lot or flooding neighboring stores or homes. Drainage problems are a major cause of premature parking lot failures- especially true when sprinkler systems are located in parking lot islands and medians without drainage designed for the overflow.
Sealcoating for maintenance
- We are all aware of the bleaching effects of the sun on many surfaces and it does start the graying (oxidization) of asphalt pavement as soon as its laid down. However, periodic sealcoating (every 2 to 3 years) will reduce the rate of erosion down to a crawl which will double the lifespan of the parking lot.
- Many types pf sealants are available to protect parking lots and some are developed to work longer in certain climates and conditions. After a VA Commercial Paving inspector examines the road or parking lot they will be able to suggest which ones will work the best.
Asphalt (Blacktop) road repair, resurface/renewal or new build companies or contractors
- Asphalt road repairs require inspection before committing to a specific type of fix. Although many types of damage asphalt pavement have their respective repairs, the pavement’s system that comprises road, parking lot or driveway is a sum of its parts and each need to be examined to understand the root cause of the failure:
- Does the grading of the immediate and surrounding area direct the storm water away from slipping under the pavement?
- Was the road, parking lot or driveway designed correctly for the type of traffic it needs to carry?
- Experienced asphalt pavers, during the road inspection, will probably figure out what’s wrong in a heartbeat and then explain the problem and possible solutions to the client. We always suggest the least expensive fix first and after explaining its pros and cons then we move on to more expensive fixes. Our goal is to apprise you of all repair options available then let you decide your best solution while staying available for further questions. Please, give us an opportunity to explain how we can fix your ailing road by contacting us for a free inspection and consultation.

Experience Matters
Asphalt Paving is NOT a trade that is taught in school but on the job site. It takes time to prefect the craft as any hands-on trade does. We have over 50 years of experience and have to solve upcoming problems that a new paver would not know how to handle. For example, handling proper drainage, considering trees/plants that could be a future issue, improperly mixed asphalt identification. An issue like this could ruin your investment so it's best to prevent the issue in the first place.

What our Clients Say
Here are a few of our past clients
I own a construction company and we regularly sub out work to VA Commercial Paving because they are always reliable and I don't have to check behind them. Any general contractor will let you know that finding the right subs is like pulling teeth (most of the time). I have NEVER had a problem with Jordan and his crews. Always quality work and always a great price. If you are looking for your own sub-contractor for large jobs or want to use them as your main then you can't go wrong.
Our experience with Jordan was flawless. His bid came in several thousand dollars lower than the two other bids that we received for our parking lot (which initially had me worried) but he did a perfect job and knocked it out quickly. Full disclosure here, I now have him as a client (I generate leads for small businesses). He never lets me down. Always takes care of the business I send him and always gets good reviews. I wish I could say that about all my clients!
I'm a general contractor that mostly does roofing work but I refer out Jordan all the time (I don't refer a lot of people because I'm not willing to put my name on the line for just anyone). I ALWAYS get positive feedback from the other contractors I refer him to or any of the owners I refer him to). It makes me feel good knowing that when I refer him because I am 100% confident he is going to do quality work.
