When your parking lot is done right, you stop worrying about liability issues from potholes and uneven surfaces. Your customers feel confident pulling into a space that looks professional and well-maintained.
You also stop throwing money at constant patch jobs. Quality asphalt installation handles Pennsylvania’s brutal freeze-thaw cycles without cracking apart every spring. That means fewer emergency repairs and more predictable maintenance costs.
Your property value improves, your insurance risks decrease, and your business projects the kind of reliability that keeps customers coming back.
We’ve been handling asphalt projects since 1948, combining family tradition with modern paving expertise. We understand what works in Solebury’s climate and what doesn’t.
Unlike contractors who rush between multiple jobs, we focus on one project at a time. Every parking lot gets the full attention it deserves, from initial site preparation through final line striping.
We treat every client like our most important client, whether it’s a small residential driveway or a large commercial parking lot. That approach has earned us five-star reviews on Angie’s List and built our reputation based on quality work and honest communication.
First, we evaluate your site and explain exactly what needs to happen. You’ll know about drainage requirements, base preparation, and any potential complications before work begins.
Next comes proper excavation and base preparation. This step determines how long your parking lot will last, so we do it right the first time. Quality aggregate base material is installed and compacted to specifications.
Then comes the asphalt installation using materials designed for Pennsylvania’s temperature extremes. The surface is graded for proper drainage and compacted for long-term durability. Finally, professional line striping and any required signage complete the project.

Complete parking lot paving includes site preparation, proper drainage planning, quality base installation, and professional asphalt application. Line striping, handicap markings, and directional arrows are part of the finished product.
Solebury’s zoning requirements demand specific parking space dimensions and accessibility compliance. We understand these regulations and ensure your project meets all local standards from day one.
Our service also includes coordination with local permit departments and scheduling that minimizes disruption to your business operations. You get a finished parking lot that handles heavy traffic and Pennsylvania weather while meeting all regulatory requirements.
Most commercial parking lots take 3-5 days from start to finish, depending on size and complexity. The process includes excavation, base preparation, asphalt installation, and line striping.
Weather plays a role in scheduling. Asphalt needs dry conditions and temperatures above 50 degrees for proper installation. Spring through fall offers the best conditions in Pennsylvania.
We provide a detailed timeline before work begins and keep you updated on any weather-related delays. Our crews work efficiently to minimize business disruption while maintaining quality standards.
Asphalt overlay involves placing new asphalt over existing pavement that’s structurally sound but surface-damaged. Complete replacement means removing old asphalt and starting fresh with new base preparation.
Overlay works when the existing base is solid and drainage is adequate. It costs less and takes less time than full replacement. However, it won’t fix underlying drainage problems or base failures.
Complete replacement is necessary when the existing pavement has significant cracking, settling, or drainage issues. While more expensive initially, it provides a longer-lasting solution and allows for proper drainage correction and base improvement.
Sealcoating every 2-3 years is the most important maintenance step. This protective coating prevents water penetration and guards against Pennsylvania’s harsh freeze-thaw cycles that cause cracking.
Crack sealing should be done promptly when small cracks appear. Water infiltration through cracks leads to base damage and expensive repairs. Addressing cracks early prevents major problems.
Regular sweeping removes debris that can damage the surface. Snow removal should be done carefully to avoid scraping the asphalt with plow blades. Professional maintenance programs help property owners stay ahead of potential problems.
Solebury Township requires permits for projects involving earth disturbance over 2,000 square feet or cumulative impervious surface exceeding 1,000 square feet. Commercial construction permits are also required.
The permit process includes review of drainage plans, accessibility compliance, and adherence to local zoning requirements. We handle permit applications and ensure all requirements are met.
Permit approval must be completed before construction begins. The process typically takes 2-4 weeks depending on project complexity. Working with us speeds up the approval process thanks to our experience with local requirements.
Parking lot paving costs vary significantly based on size, site conditions, and required drainage work. Simple overlay projects cost less than complete reconstruction with new base preparation.
Site preparation costs depend on existing conditions. Poor drainage or unstable soil increases the complexity and cost. Quality base preparation is essential for long-term performance in Pennsylvania’s climate.
We provide detailed estimates after site evaluation. The investment in proper installation pays off through reduced maintenance costs and longer pavement life. Quality work costs more initially but provides better long-term value.
Late spring through early fall offers ideal conditions for asphalt paving in Pennsylvania. Temperatures should be consistently above 50 degrees with dry weather forecasted for several days.
Summer provides the most reliable weather windows, but scheduling fills up quickly during peak season. Spring and fall can offer good conditions but require more weather flexibility.
Winter paving is possible but challenging due to temperature requirements and potential weather delays. Planning your project during optimal seasons ensures better installation conditions and faster completion times.
