Asphalt Paving

Most commercial parking lots need 2.5 to 3 inches of asphalt over 6 to 8 inches of compacted aggregate base. Heavy-traffic areas like truck routes or loading docks may need 4+ inches. We design the pavement section based on your expected traffic.

A typical commercial parking lot takes 3 to 7 days depending on size and how much base work is needed. Paving itself is fast - it is the excavation, grading, and base prep that take the most time. We provide a detailed timeline before starting.

The paving season in Utah runs from late April through October. Asphalt needs to be placed when ambient temperatures are above 50 degrees F and the ground is not frozen. Spring and fall are ideal because the moderate temperatures help with compaction.

New asphalt is typically ready for vehicle traffic within 24 to 48 hours after placement. However, it continues to cure and harden for several months. We recommend avoiding sharp turns and heavy point loads during the first few weeks.

An overlay places new asphalt on top of the existing surface, typically 1.5 to 2 inches thick. It works when the base is still structurally sound. Full replacement involves removing everything down to subgrade and rebuilding. We will tell you honestly which one your lot needs.

Yes. We handle the entire job from excavation and subgrade prep through final paving and striping. Having one team manage every phase means better quality control and no finger-pointing between separate crews.

Pricing depends on the lot size, base condition, access, and thickness requirements. We provide free on-site estimates with a clear scope of work. Every project is different, but we will give you straightforward pricing with no hidden fees.

We serve commercial properties throughout Utah including Salt Lake City, Sandy, Draper, Bluffdale, South Jordan, West Jordan, Riverton, Herriman, Lehi, American Fork, Provo, and Orem.
