Most commercial parking lots in Alexandria can be paved within 1-3 days, depending on the size and complexity of your project. However, you’ll need additional time for proper curing before allowing full traffic loads.
The timeline also depends on site preparation requirements. If your existing pavement needs milling or extensive base work, this adds time to the project. Weather conditions can also affect scheduling, as asphalt installation requires specific temperature ranges for optimal results.
We provide a detailed timeline during the estimate process, including any factors that might extend the schedule. Planning ahead helps minimize disruption to your business operations.
Resurfacing involves adding a new layer of asphalt over your existing pavement, while full replacement requires removing the old asphalt and starting fresh with new base preparation.
Resurfacing works when your existing base is structurally sound but the surface shows wear, minor cracking, or weathering. This option costs significantly less than full replacement and can extend your pavement life by 10-15 years.
Full replacement becomes necessary when you have extensive cracking, drainage problems, or base failure. Signs include alligator cracking, standing water, or areas where the pavement has settled or heaved. A professional assessment determines which approach makes the most sense for your Alexandria property.
Commercial paving in New Jersey typically ranges from $2.00 to $7.00 per square foot, with the final cost depending on several factors specific to your Alexandria property.
Site conditions play a major role in pricing. Properties requiring extensive base work, drainage improvements, or milling will cost more than straightforward overlay projects. The thickness of asphalt needed also affects pricing, with heavy-traffic areas requiring thicker applications.
Additional factors include accessibility for equipment, project size (larger projects often have lower per-square-foot costs), and any special requirements like decorative borders or complex line striping. The best approach is getting a detailed estimate based on your specific property conditions.
New asphalt should be sealcoated 6-12 months after installation, once the asphalt has fully cured and any oils have evaporated from the surface. After that, most Alexandria commercial properties benefit from sealcoating every 2-3 years.
The timing depends on traffic volume and weather exposure. High-traffic areas or lots exposed to significant sun and weather may need more frequent attention. You’ll know it’s time when the asphalt color fades from black to gray, or you notice small cracks beginning to form.
Sealcoating protects against water penetration, oil stains, and UV damage – all common issues in New Jersey’s climate. Regular maintenance extends pavement life significantly and costs much less than premature replacement or major repairs.
Most municipalities in New Jersey, including Alexandria, do not require permits for standard asphalt paving projects on existing parking lots. However, regulations can vary based on project scope and local ordinances.
Projects involving drainage changes, expansion of paved areas, or work near public rights-of-way may require permits or approvals. If your project includes significant grading or affects stormwater management, additional permits might be necessary.
We’re familiar with local requirements and can help determine if permits are needed for your specific project. It’s always better to check with Alexandria Township before starting work to avoid any complications or delays.
Asphalt performs exceptionally well in New Jersey’s freeze-thaw climate because it’s more flexible than concrete, allowing it to expand and contract without cracking as readily.
Cost is another significant advantage. Asphalt installation typically costs 30-50% less than concrete, and repairs are generally simpler and more affordable. If damage does occur, asphalt patches blend better with existing pavement than concrete repairs.
Maintenance is also more straightforward with asphalt. Regular sealcoating keeps the surface protected and looking professional, while concrete requires different maintenance approaches. For most Alexandria commercial properties, asphalt provides the best combination of durability, cost-effectiveness, and weather resistance.
