You’re not looking for the cheapest price. You’re looking for someone who won’t leave you with standing water, premature cracks, or a half-finished job.
When your parking lot is installed correctly, you get 20 to 30 years of service—not 5 years before it starts falling apart. You get drainage that actually works through New Jersey winters and spring rains. You get a surface that holds up to daily traffic without turning into a liability.
Most importantly, you get to stop worrying. No more wondering if the contractor will show up. No more surprise fees halfway through. Just straightforward work, done by people who’ve been doing this since 1948.
We’ve been around since 1948. That’s not something you can fake, and it’s not something fly-by-night outfits can claim.
We work on one job at a time. When our crew is on your property in Groveville, they’re not splitting time with three other sites. They’re focused on your project until it’s done right.
We handle everything from residential driveways off Main Street to commercial lots near the Route 130 corridor. Big or small, every project gets the same level of care. That’s how we’ve built a reputation in Mercer County—by treating every client like they’re the most important one we’ve got.
First, we assess your site. Drainage, soil conditions, traffic patterns—all of it matters. If your lot needs grading or if water’s going to pool in certain areas, we tell you upfront. No surprises later.
Next comes the base. This is where most contractors cut corners, and it’s why their work fails early. We compact a proper gravel base because that’s what supports everything above it. Skip this step or do it wrong, and your asphalt won’t last half as long as it should.
Then we pave. Hot mix asphalt, laid at the right temperature, compacted correctly. We’re not rushing to get to the next job. We’re making sure this one is done right.
After that, striping and final touches. Your parking spaces are clearly marked, your lot is clean, and you’re ready to use it within a few days. Most projects in Groveville wrap up in one to three days, depending on size and prep work.
Ready to get started?
Every parking lot paving project starts with proper site evaluation. We check for drainage issues, existing damage, and soil stability. In Groveville’s climate, water management isn’t optional—it’s essential.
You get a compacted base that’s built to last. You get hot mix asphalt that’s designed for New Jersey weather—freeze-thaw cycles, summer heat, and everything in between. You get striping that meets local codes and ADA requirements if needed.
For commercial properties near Hamilton Square or along the I-295 corridor, we understand you can’t afford long shutdowns. We work around your schedule to minimize disruption. For residential projects in neighborhoods like those near Crosswicks Creek, we respect your property and keep the site clean.
We also handle repairs, resurfacing, and maintenance down the line. Sealcoating every few years. Crack filling before small problems become big ones. The goal isn’t just to install your parking lot—it’s to make sure it’s still performing well 20 years from now.
Commercial parking lot paving in New Jersey typically runs between $2 and $7 per square foot. That’s a wide range because the final cost depends on several factors.
The size of your lot matters. Larger projects usually cost less per square foot because of economies of scale. A 5,000-square-foot lot might cost around $20,000, while a 50,000-square-foot lot could run upwards of $100,000.
The condition of your existing surface also plays a role. If we need to mill off old asphalt, that adds $0.25 to $0.60 per square foot. If your lot has drainage problems or the base has failed, we’ll need to address those issues before paving. Proper grading and drainage work costs more upfront but saves you money over the life of the pavement.
We give you a clear, written estimate before any work starts. No hidden fees. No surprises halfway through the job.
A properly installed asphalt parking lot can last 20 to 30 years with regular maintenance. The key words there are “properly installed” and “regular maintenance.”
If the base isn’t compacted correctly or drainage isn’t handled right, you might see problems in as little as 5 years. That’s why we don’t cut corners on site prep. The base is what supports everything above it. Get that wrong, and nothing else matters.
Maintenance extends the life of your pavement significantly. Sealcoating every few years protects against water, UV damage, and oxidation. Filling cracks as soon as they appear prevents water from getting underneath and causing bigger problems. Regular cleaning and attention to drainage keep your lot in good shape.
Traffic volume and weight also affect lifespan. A lot that sees heavy delivery trucks daily will wear faster than one used by passenger vehicles. We factor that into our recommendations for asphalt thickness and mix design.
New Jersey gets its share of rain and snow, and water is asphalt’s worst enemy. When water pools on your parking lot or seeps into cracks, it erodes the base underneath. That leads to potholes, alligator cracking, and eventually complete pavement failure.
Proper drainage means water flows off your lot quickly and doesn’t sit in puddles. In Groveville, where we get freeze-thaw cycles in winter, standing water is especially problematic. When water freezes, it expands. That expansion breaks apart asphalt from the inside out.
We design drainage into every project from the start. That might mean adjusting the grade so water naturally flows away from your building and toward drainage areas. It might mean installing catch basins or adjusting curbs. Sometimes it requires milling certain areas to manipulate the slope.
Yes, proper drainage adds to the upfront cost. But it’s a fraction of what you’ll pay if your parking lot fails prematurely because water destroyed the base. We’ve seen too many lots paved by contractors who ignored drainage—and those property owners end up paying twice.
Most parking lot paving projects in Groveville are completed in one to three days, depending on the size and how much prep work is needed. That’s for the actual paving work. Site prep and base work might add time depending on your lot’s condition.
A small commercial lot—maybe 5,000 to 10,000 square feet—can often be done in a day if the base is in good shape. Larger lots or projects that require milling, extensive drainage work, or base repair take longer.
For commercial properties, we work around your schedule to minimize disruption. If you need us to work nights or weekends to avoid peak business hours, we can usually accommodate that. We’re not trying to rush through your job to get to the next one. We’re focused on doing it right.
Once the asphalt is laid, you can typically drive on it within 72 hours. We’ll give you specific guidance based on the weather and the type of asphalt mix we use. Heavy loads might need to wait a bit longer than passenger vehicles.
Resurfacing means milling off the top layer of asphalt and laying a new layer on top of the existing base. It’s less expensive than full replacement and works well if your base is still solid but the surface is worn or cracked.
Full replacement means removing all the old asphalt, evaluating and repairing the base if needed, and then installing new asphalt from the ground up. You need full replacement when the base has failed, when there’s extensive alligator cracking, or when more than 25 to 35 percent of the surface needs repair.
Here’s how to know which one you need: If you have a few cracks and the surface looks worn but there’s no major structural damage, resurfacing is probably the right call. If you have potholes, significant drainage problems, or areas where the pavement has sunk, you likely need full replacement.
We assess your lot and tell you honestly which option makes sense. Sometimes property owners want to resurface because it’s cheaper, but if the base is failing, resurfacing is just putting a Band-Aid on a bigger problem. We’d rather give you the truth upfront than have you pay twice.
Yes. We offer discounts for seniors, military members, and first-time customers. These aren’t gimmicks—they’re our way of giving back to the community that’s supported us for decades.
The discount amount varies depending on the project, so it’s best to mention it when you call for an estimate. We’ll factor it into your quote from the start so there’s no confusion later.
We also believe in fair pricing across the board. You shouldn’t need a special discount to get honest work at a reasonable price. Our goal is to charge what the job is actually worth—not to inflate prices and then offer a “discount” to make you feel like you’re getting a deal.
If you’re a senior, veteran, or first-time customer in Groveville or anywhere in Mercer County, let us know when you reach out. We’ll make sure you get the pricing you deserve for quality work that lasts.
