You get a smooth, durable surface that handles heavy traffic without cracking or settling within the first year. Your customers notice the difference immediately—clean lines, proper drainage, and a professional appearance that reflects well on your business.
No more dealing with puddles after every storm or watching your parking lot deteriorate faster than it should. When the work is done right from day one, you avoid those expensive emergency repairs that always seem to happen at the worst possible time.
The result is a parking lot that actually works for your business, not against it. Professional installation means fewer headaches, lower long-term costs, and the confidence that comes from knowing it was built to last.
We’ve been serving Quakertown and surrounding areas since 1948, combining family tradition with modern paving techniques. We focus on one job at a time, giving your project our complete attention instead of juggling multiple sites.
You work directly with experienced professionals who understand Quakertown’s unique soil conditions, drainage requirements, and local building codes. Our approach is straightforward—we tell you exactly what needs to be done, why it needs to be done, and what it will cost.
Five-star reviews on Angie’s List and decades of repeat customers speak to our commitment to quality work and honest communication. When you choose us, you’re not just hiring a paving contractor—you’re working with neighbors who have deep roots in this community.
First, we assess your property’s specific needs, including drainage patterns, soil conditions, and traffic requirements. You get a detailed estimate that covers everything from base preparation to final surface application—no hidden costs or surprise charges later.
Next, we handle all the prep work that determines how long your pavement will last. This includes proper grading, base installation, and addressing any drainage issues that could cause problems down the road. Most paving failures happen because this step was rushed or skipped entirely.
Finally, we apply the asphalt using proven techniques and quality materials. Throughout the entire process, you receive regular updates on progress and timing. When we’re finished, you have a parking lot that’s built to handle your specific traffic patterns and weather conditions for years to come.

Your commercial paving project includes everything needed for a professional result: site evaluation, proper base preparation, drainage solutions, asphalt installation, and line striping. We handle permits and ensure compliance with local codes and ADA requirements.
Quakertown’s clay soil and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles require specific techniques that many contractors overlook. Our local experience means we know how to build parking lots that handle these conditions without premature cracking or settling issues.
You also get our water management expertise, which is crucial in this area. Proper drainage prevents the standing water and ice formation that can damage pavement and create liability issues for your business. We design solutions that direct water away from your building and high-traffic areas effectively.
Most commercial paving projects take 3-7 business days, depending on size and complexity. The timeline includes site preparation, base work, asphalt installation, and final details like striping.
Weather plays a role—we won’t pour asphalt in rain or when temperatures are below 50 degrees, as this compromises the final result. We schedule your project during optimal conditions and keep you updated if weather causes any delays.
For larger projects or those requiring extensive base work, the timeline may extend to 2-3 weeks. We provide a detailed schedule upfront so you can plan accordingly and minimize disruption to your business operations.
An overlay adds a new layer of asphalt over existing pavement, while reconstruction involves removing old asphalt and rebuilding from the base up. The right choice depends on your current pavement’s condition and underlying issues.
Overlay works when the existing base is solid and drainage is adequate. It’s more cost-effective and faster, typically adding 10-15 years of life. However, if there are base problems, drainage issues, or extensive cracking, overlay is just putting a band-aid on bigger problems.
Complete reconstruction costs more upfront but gives you a fresh start with proper base preparation and drainage. In Quakertown’s challenging soil conditions, this is often the better long-term investment, especially for high-traffic commercial properties.
Proper drainage starts with site evaluation and grade planning before any asphalt goes down. We analyze how water currently flows across your property and identify areas where standing water or ice formation could become problems.
Our solutions include adjusting grades to direct water away from buildings and high-traffic areas, installing catch basins or French drains where needed, and ensuring proper slope throughout the paved area. This is especially important in Quakertown due to clay soil that doesn’t drain naturally.
Poor drainage is the leading cause of premature pavement failure. Water that can’t escape freezes and expands, creating cracks and settling. By addressing drainage during initial construction, we prevent these expensive problems from developing later.
We plan every project to minimize impact on your daily operations. This typically means working in phases, keeping essential access routes open, and coordinating timing around your busiest periods.
For most commercial projects, we can maintain customer and employee access through alternate routes or temporary surfaces. We discuss your specific needs upfront—delivery schedules, peak business hours, special events—and build the work plan around them.
Communication is key throughout the process. You receive daily updates on progress and any timing changes. Our goal is completing quality work while keeping your business running smoothly, not creating unnecessary headaches for you or your customers.
Light foot traffic is typically allowed within 24 hours, while vehicle traffic requires 48-72 hours for proper curing. Heavy trucks or delivery vehicles should wait at least one week to prevent permanent impressions in the new surface.
Temperature affects curing time—hot weather speeds the process while cool conditions slow it down. We provide specific timing based on weather conditions and your asphalt mix. Following these guidelines ensures your pavement reaches full strength and durability.
We also recommend avoiding sharp turns, heavy loads, and parking in the same spots repeatedly during the first month. These precautions help your new pavement achieve maximum lifespan and prevent early wear patterns from developing.
New asphalt requires minimal maintenance for the first few years beyond regular cleaning and prompt attention to any oil spills. Sealcoating typically isn’t needed until year 3-5, depending on traffic levels and weather exposure.
Regular inspection helps catch small issues before they become expensive problems. Look for minor cracks, drainage problems, or areas where the surface seems to be settling. Addressing these early prevents water infiltration and extends pavement life significantly.
We provide maintenance recommendations specific to your property’s traffic patterns and usage. This includes optimal sealcoating schedules, crack repair timing, and signs to watch for that indicate attention is needed. Proper maintenance can double your pavement’s useful life.
