Your parking lot or commercial driveway isn’t just pavement—it’s the first impression customers get of your business. When it’s cracked, uneven, or poorly maintained, that impression isn’t doing you any favors.
You get a smooth, professional surface that handles heavy traffic and weather without constant repairs. No more apologizing to customers about potholes or worrying about liability issues from uneven pavement.
The installation process stays on schedule, your business operations continue with minimal disruption, and you end up with results that last years instead of needing touch-ups every season.
We’ve been handling paving projects since 1948, combining decades of hands-on experience with a straightforward approach that New Britain business owners appreciate. We focus on one project at a time, ensuring your job gets full attention rather than being squeezed between multiple sites.
What sets us apart is treating every client the same way—whether you’re paving a small office lot or a large industrial complex. You get the same level of communication, the same quality materials, and the same commitment to doing the work right.
We understand New Britain’s climate challenges and local requirements, bringing solutions that work for Pennsylvania weather and commercial traffic patterns.
First, we evaluate your property to understand drainage patterns, traffic flow, and any underlying issues that need addressing. This isn’t a quick walk-around—it’s a thorough assessment that prevents problems down the road.
Next comes site preparation, including proper grading and base work. This foundation step determines how well your pavement performs over time, so it’s done methodically rather than rushed.
The paving installation follows, using quality materials and proven techniques. You’ll know the timeline upfront, get regular updates during the work, and see exactly what’s being done at each stage. No surprises, no change orders unless you request additional work.

Your commercial paving project covers everything from initial site evaluation through final cleanup. This includes proper grading to prevent water pooling, quality base preparation, and professional asphalt installation designed for your specific traffic patterns.
New Britain properties often deal with freeze-thaw cycles that can damage poorly installed pavement. Our installation process accounts for these local conditions, using techniques that handle Pennsylvania’s weather variations without premature cracking or settling.
Water management gets particular attention since drainage problems cause most pavement failures. We design proper slopes and drainage solutions that keep water moving away from your pavement and building foundations.
Most commercial paving projects take 2-5 days depending on size and complexity. Small parking lots often finish in 1-2 days, while larger commercial properties or those requiring extensive base work may take up to a week.
The timeline depends on factors like weather, site preparation needs, and the size of the area being paved. You’ll get a specific schedule during the initial evaluation, and we stick to those timelines unless weather creates delays.
Business disruption stays minimal because the work is planned around your operations. Access routes remain available, and the installation is sequenced to keep essential areas functional during the process.
Commercial paving handles heavier traffic loads and requires thicker asphalt layers than residential driveways. The base preparation is more extensive, and the materials are specified for commercial-grade durability.
Traffic patterns matter more in commercial work—delivery trucks, employee parking, and customer access all create different wear patterns that influence the design. The installation also considers ADA compliance requirements for accessible parking and walkways.
Weather resistance becomes more critical since commercial properties can’t easily restrict access during repairs. The installation techniques and material choices prioritize long-term performance over initial cost savings.
Proper drainage starts with site evaluation to understand existing water flow patterns and potential problem areas. The grading is designed to move water away from pavement and buildings toward appropriate drainage points.
In New Britain’s climate, water management prevents the freeze-thaw damage that destroys poorly designed pavement. This means creating proper slopes, installing drainage structures where needed, and ensuring water doesn’t pool on the surface.
The base preparation includes materials and techniques that handle water infiltration without compromising the pavement structure. This foundation work is what separates installations that last decades from those that need repairs within a few years.
New commercial pavement typically needs minimal maintenance for the first 3-5 years if properly installed. Regular cleaning and occasional crack sealing extend the life significantly, but major repairs shouldn’t be necessary early on.
Sealcoating every 3-4 years protects the surface from weather and traffic wear. This preventive maintenance costs far less than major repairs and keeps your pavement looking professional.
The key is addressing small issues before they become big problems. Regular inspections help identify areas that need attention, and early intervention prevents minor cracks from becoming major structural issues.
Work scheduling considers your business hours and peak traffic times. Installation often happens during off-hours or is phased to maintain access to essential areas throughout the project.
Our one-project-at-a-time approach means your job gets focused attention rather than being stretched out while crews work multiple sites. This concentrated effort reduces the overall timeline and gets your property back to full operation faster.
Communication stays constant throughout the process. You know what’s happening each day, which areas will be affected, and when access will be restored. No surprises that disrupt your business planning.
Our pricing reflects the actual work being done rather than cutting corners to win bids. The estimate includes proper base preparation, quality materials, and the time needed to do the installation correctly.
Transparent pricing means no hidden costs or surprise change orders. The initial evaluation identifies all necessary work upfront, so you know the total investment before signing any contracts.
The focus is on long-term value rather than lowest initial cost. Proper installation techniques and quality materials cost more upfront but eliminate the expensive repairs that come with cheap work.
