Before they see your building, your products, or your team, they see your parking lot. Cracked asphalt and faded lines send a message. Fresh, smooth pavement sends a different one entirely.
You know the difference when you pull into a well-maintained lot versus one that’s falling apart. Your customers know it too. They make judgments about your business based on what they see before they even get out of their car.
A professionally paved parking lot doesn’t just look better—it tells customers you pay attention to details and take pride in your property.
Since 2000, we’ve been the asphalt contractor Richland property owners call when they need paving installation done right. Over 25,000 satisfied customers have trusted us with their commercial and residential projects.
Pennsylvania’s brutal winters destroy poorly installed pavement. Thirty to fifty freeze-thaw cycles each year crack inferior work within a few seasons. That’s why we use proper thickness, ensure drainage works, and select materials that flex instead of break.
Our owner shows up to every job site. No subcontractors handling your project while we’re somewhere else. When you hire us, you get our full attention and decades of experience.
Every project starts with understanding your specific situation. We evaluate drainage, traffic patterns, existing conditions, and any challenges unique to your property.
Site preparation determines everything that comes after. We excavate properly, grade for drainage, and install a solid base. This foundation work separates projects that last from those that fail within five years.
Then comes the asphalt—mixed for Pennsylvania’s climate, applied at the right thickness, and compacted correctly. Clean edges, proper drainage, professional line striping. You can drive on it within a day or two.

We handle everything from small residential driveways to large commercial parking lots. New paving installation, resurfacing existing lots, crack repair, sealcoating, and line striping—whatever your property needs.
Richland businesses deal with heavy snow loads, ice, and temperature swings that destroy poorly designed pavement. We build parking lots with adequate thickness, proper drainage, and materials that handle Pennsylvania weather year after year.
Regular maintenance protects your investment. Sealcoating every few years, crack filling before small problems become big ones, and prompt repairs when needed. We help you avoid expensive reconstruction by taking care of issues early.
Most commercial parking lot projects take 2-4 days, depending on size and complexity. Weather plays a role since asphalt needs temperatures above 50°F for proper installation.
The timeline includes site prep, base work, asphalt application, and finishing touches like line striping. You can typically use the lot within 24-48 hours, though we recommend keeping heavy trucks off for a few days.
Larger lots or complex layouts take longer, but we work efficiently to minimize disruption to your business. We’ll coordinate with you to schedule work during slower periods when possible.
Asphalt flexes with temperature changes instead of cracking—crucial for Pennsylvania’s freeze-thaw cycles. It also resists damage from road salt and ice melt products used throughout winter.
Installation is much faster than concrete. Most asphalt jobs are complete in days, while concrete takes weeks and requires longer curing time before use.
Repairs are simpler and less expensive too. When maintenance is needed, asphalt can be patched or resurfaced without major reconstruction. The dark surface also melts snow and ice faster than concrete.
Commercial paving typically runs $2.75-$5.50 per square foot in Pennsylvania, depending on project complexity, site conditions, and thickness requirements.
Cost factors include lot size, existing pavement condition, drainage needs, base preparation, and accessibility. Larger projects often cost less per square foot due to efficiency gains.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs—materials, labor, site prep, and any additional services. No hidden fees or surprise charges after work begins.
Late spring through early fall offers the best paving conditions. Asphalt requires consistent temperatures above 50°F for proper installation and long-term performance.
May and June are ideal—ground has warmed up and weather is typically stable. Summer works but demand is higher. September and October offer excellent conditions before winter arrives.
Avoid winter paving except for emergency repairs. Cold temperatures prevent proper compaction and can lead to premature failure. Planning ahead for optimal weather ensures better results.
Widespread alligator cracking, major settling, or persistent drainage problems usually indicate full replacement is needed. Surface-level wear, minor cracks, or fading typically mean resurfacing is sufficient.
We evaluate your pavement’s structural integrity, check for base problems, and assess drainage issues. If the foundation is solid, an overlay can restore the surface at much lower cost.
Warning signs for full replacement include water pooling in multiple areas, extensive cracking throughout the lot, or sections that are sinking or heaving. Our evaluation determines the most cost-effective approach.
Sealcoating every 2-3 years protects against weather damage and extends pavement life significantly. Annual crack filling prevents water infiltration that leads to freeze damage.
Keep the surface clean and address drainage issues promptly. Line striping may need refreshing every few years depending on traffic volume and weather exposure.
Handle minor repairs like pothole patching quickly—small problems become expensive ones if ignored. With proper maintenance, your parking lot can last 15-20 years or more despite Pennsylvania’s challenging climate.
