You stop worrying about liability. Customers pull in and see a property that’s clearly maintained. Water drains where it should instead of pooling in low spots that crack wider every winter.
Your parking lot becomes an asset instead of a problem. No more apologizing for potholes or roping off damaged sections. Just a smooth, professional surface that handles whatever your business throws at it—delivery trucks, daily traffic, Pennsylvania’s freeze-thaw cycles.
The right commercial paving means fewer repair calls, lower long-term costs, and a property that actually looks like you care about it. Because when your pavement’s done right from the start, it doesn’t need constant attention.
We bring 75+ years of combined experience to every commercial project in Sellersville and Bucks County. That’s not marketing talk—it’s actual decades of figuring out what works in Pennsylvania’s climate and what doesn’t.
We handle everything from small business parking lots to large industrial sites. What sets us apart isn’t just experience—it’s the approach. One crew, one job at a time. Your project gets full attention until it’s done right.
Sellersville’s mix of retail, office, and industrial properties means every site has different needs. We don’t use cookie-cutter solutions. We assess drainage, traffic patterns, and your specific requirements before recommending whether you need resurfacing, milling and overlay, or full reconstruction.
First, the site gets evaluated. Not a quick walk-around—a real assessment of what’s failing and why. Is the base solid or compromised? Where’s water going? What kind of traffic load does this lot handle?
Then comes the honest conversation about options. Sometimes an overlay works. Sometimes you need milling and resurfacing. And sometimes the base is shot and full reconstruction is the only answer that won’t waste your money.
Prep work happens next—grading, drainage correction, base repair. This is where corners get cut by contractors who don’t know better or don’t care. We don’t skip this part because we know it’s what determines whether your pavement lasts five years or twenty-five.
Once the base is right, asphalt goes down at proper thickness for your traffic load. Compaction happens in stages. Edges get sealed. Drainage gets verified. Then striping and final details.
You get regular updates throughout. No disappearing for days. No surprises about timeline or cost. Just clear communication about what’s happening and when you can use the lot again.

Commercial paving in Sellersville isn’t just about laying asphalt. It’s about creating a surface that works for your specific property and handles local conditions.
Site preparation includes grading for proper drainage—critical in Pennsylvania where freeze-thaw cycles destroy improperly drained pavement. Base work gets done right the first time, whether that means repairing soft spots or rebuilding the entire foundation.
Asphalt thickness matches your needs. Light traffic gets different specs than heavy truck traffic. The mix is designed for Pennsylvania weather—formulated to handle temperature swings without premature cracking.
Striping and ADA compliance come standard. Accessible parking spaces, proper markings, clear traffic flow. Sellersville commercial properties need to meet regulations, and that’s built into every project.
Water management matters here. Bucks County gets its share of rain, and standing water is pavement’s worst enemy. Proper grading, catch basins where needed, and drainage solutions that actually work prevent the water infiltration that creates potholes.
You also get realistic maintenance guidance. Sealcoating every few years. Crack sealing before small issues become big ones. A plan to protect your investment long-term instead of just hoping it holds up.
Commercial asphalt paving in Sellersville typically runs $3 to $8 per square foot, but that range means almost nothing without context. Your actual cost depends on what your property needs.
A simple overlay on a structurally sound parking lot costs less than full-depth reconstruction. If your base is failing, drainage is poor, or the site needs extensive prep work, you’re looking at the higher end. Larger projects usually cost less per square foot than smaller ones because mobilization costs get spread across more area.
Site accessibility matters too. Easy access with room for equipment costs less than tight spaces requiring smaller machinery or more hand work. Thickness requirements vary based on traffic—a medical office lot needs different specs than a warehouse handling loaded trucks daily.
The only way to know what your project actually costs is a site evaluation. We provide transparent estimates that break down prep work, materials, installation, and any extras like striping or drainage improvements. No hidden costs, no surprises halfway through.
It depends on what’s failing. If the surface is worn but the base underneath is still solid, resurfacing makes sense. If the foundation is compromised, resurfacing just puts new asphalt over a problem that’ll show up again in a year or two.
Signs your base is failing include large areas of alligator cracking, pavement that feels spongy when you walk on it, and potholes that keep coming back after repairs. If water pools in multiple spots or you see significant settling, the base likely needs work.
Milling and overlay—where the top layer gets removed and replaced—works well for moderate surface damage on a good foundation. It’s more than a simple overlay but less expensive than full reconstruction. You get a fresh surface without the cost of rebuilding everything.
Full reconstruction means removing old asphalt, addressing base issues, and starting fresh. It costs more upfront but makes sense when the alternative is throwing money at repairs that won’t last. Pennsylvania’s freeze-thaw cycles are brutal on compromised pavement—if the base is shot, fix it properly or plan on constant maintenance.
A proper evaluation tells you what you’re actually dealing with. We assess the structure, not just the surface, before recommending the approach that makes financial sense for your property.
Most commercial parking lot projects in Sellersville take anywhere from a few days to two weeks, depending on size, scope, and weather. A small business lot might be done in two to three days. A large shopping center could take two weeks or more.
Weather plays a big role in Pennsylvania. Asphalt needs proper temperatures to cure correctly. Spring through fall is ideal. Winter paving is possible but requires different materials and techniques, which adds cost and complexity. Rain delays happen—you can’t pave in wet conditions.
The scope of work matters more than square footage. Simple resurfacing goes faster than full reconstruction with drainage improvements. If your project includes milling, base repair, or extensive prep work, add time.
Phased construction is common for businesses that can’t close their entire lot. We can work in sections, keeping part of your parking available while completing the project. This extends the timeline but keeps your business operational.
You’ll get a realistic timeline upfront based on your specific project. Then regular updates if anything changes. The goal is completing quality work on schedule, not rushing through to hit an arbitrary deadline and compromising results.
Pennsylvania’s freeze-thaw cycles destroy pavement faster than almost anywhere else. Water gets into small cracks, freezes overnight, expands, and makes those cracks bigger. Then it thaws, more water gets in, and the cycle repeats all winter.
This is why proper drainage and base preparation matter so much here. If water can’t drain away from the surface, it sits in low spots, works its way through any crack it finds, and undermines the base. Once the foundation is compromised, surface repairs are temporary at best.
Poor installation accelerates failure. Thin asphalt, inadequate compaction, or skipped base prep might look fine initially but won’t survive Pennsylvania winters. A parking lot that’s not built for local conditions will show problems within a few years instead of lasting decades.
Traffic load matters too. Pavement designed for cars won’t hold up under delivery trucks. If your lot sees heavy vehicles regularly, it needs thicker asphalt and a stronger base. Installing the wrong specs guarantees premature failure.
Deferred maintenance speeds up deterioration. Small cracks turn into big cracks. Big cracks become potholes. Water infiltration increases. What could’ve been fixed with crack sealing becomes a resurfacing project, then a reconstruction project. Regular sealcoating and maintenance extend pavement life significantly in Pennsylvania’s climate.
Yes. Parking lot striping, ADA-compliant accessible spaces, and proper traffic flow markings are part of commercial paving projects. Sellersville properties need to meet accessibility regulations, and that’s built into the work from the start.
ADA compliance includes proper dimensions for accessible parking spaces, appropriate signage, correct slope specifications, and accessible routes from parking to building entrances. Requirements vary based on lot size and use, but they’re not optional—they’re federal law.
Striping includes parking space lines, directional arrows, stop bars, crosswalks, fire lanes, and any custom markings your property needs. Fresh striping makes a big difference in how organized and professional your parking lot looks. It also reduces confusion and improves traffic flow.
Timing matters. Striping happens after asphalt has cured properly—usually within a few days to a week after installation. Paint needs dry conditions and appropriate temperatures to adhere correctly and last.
If your existing lot needs restriping without full paving work, that’s available too. Over time, traffic and weather fade markings. Fresh striping improves appearance and safety without the cost of resurfacing. We handle both—complete paving projects with striping included, or standalone striping for lots that just need refreshed markings.
Sealcoating every two to three years is the most important maintenance for commercial asphalt in Sellersville. It protects against water infiltration, UV damage, and chemical spills from vehicles. Think of it as a protective barrier that extends pavement life significantly.
Crack sealing should happen as soon as cracks appear. Small cracks are easy and inexpensive to fix. Ignored cracks let water infiltrate, especially during Pennsylvania’s freeze-thaw cycles, and turn into bigger problems fast. Addressing them early prevents expensive repairs later.
Regular inspections catch issues before they become emergencies. Look for new cracks, drainage problems, edge deterioration, or areas where the surface is breaking down. Catching problems early means smaller, cheaper fixes instead of major reconstruction.
Proper drainage maintenance matters. Keep catch basins clear. Make sure water flows away from the pavement instead of pooling. Standing water is one of the fastest ways to destroy asphalt, particularly in climates with freezing temperatures.
Parking lot sweeping removes debris that holds moisture against the surface and accelerates deterioration. It also improves appearance—a clean lot looks maintained and professional.
With proper maintenance, commercial asphalt in Sellersville can last 20 to 30 years. Without it, you’re looking at major repairs or replacement in 10 years or less. We provide realistic maintenance recommendations based on your property’s specific needs and traffic patterns.
