Hear From Our Clients
You know that first impression matters. When customers pull into your lot, cracked asphalt and faded lines tell them you don’t sweat the details.
A professionally paved parking lot does the opposite. It signals that you’re serious about your business, you maintain your property, and you care about the customer experience. That translates directly into higher property values and better tenant retention.
But here’s what most property owners don’t realize: the right paving job actually saves you money long-term. Quality materials and proper installation mean fewer emergency repairs, less frequent resealing, and no surprise expenses that blow your maintenance budget.
We’ve served the Elnora area for over 25 years because we do things differently. You work directly with the owner from your first call to project completion.
No sales reps who disappear after signing. No project managers who’ve never held a paving tool. Just straightforward communication with someone who’s been in the business long enough to know what works and what doesn’t.
We’ve built our reputation one parking lot at a time in this community. That means competitive pricing, honest timelines, and work that stands up to upstate New York’s harsh winters and busy summers.
First, we visit your property for a thorough assessment. We measure the area, check drainage, evaluate soil conditions, and identify any potential issues before they become expensive problems.
Next comes site preparation. We remove old asphalt if needed, grade the surface properly, and install a solid base layer. This foundation work determines how long your parking lot will last, so we don’t rush it.
Then we lay the asphalt using proper thickness specifications and commercial-grade materials. We compact everything with heavy rollers while the asphalt is still hot to ensure a smooth, durable surface. Finally, we handle line striping, ADA compliance markings, and any additional features you need.
Ready to get started?
Your parking lot paving project includes complete site preparation, proper drainage solutions, and base layer installation. We use commercial-grade asphalt mix designed for upstate New York’s freeze-thaw cycles.
You’ll get professional line striping with durable paint that won’t fade after one winter. ADA-compliant accessible spaces with proper signage come standard. We also handle curbing, speed bumps, and directional arrows as needed.
For Elnora businesses, we understand the seasonal challenges. Winter salt, snow plows, and temperature swings are hard on pavement. That’s why we use thicker asphalt applications and high-quality sealers that protect your investment year-round.
Parking lot paving costs vary based on size, site conditions, and material choices, but most projects in the Elnora area run between $3-7 per square foot for quality asphalt work. A typical 50-space lot ranges from $48,000-$65,000 including site preparation and striping.
However, the cheapest bid isn’t always the best value. Proper site preparation, adequate asphalt thickness, and quality materials cost more upfront but save thousands in repairs over the lot’s lifespan. We provide detailed estimates that break down every cost so you know exactly what you’re getting.
The biggest factor affecting price is site preparation. If your existing lot has drainage issues or poor base material, that work needs to happen first or your new asphalt will fail prematurely.
Most parking lot paving projects in Elnora take 3-7 days depending on size and complexity. Small lots under 10,000 square feet typically finish in 2-3 days, while larger commercial projects may take a full week.
The timeline breaks down like this: site preparation and base work usually take 1-2 days, asphalt installation takes 1 day, and curing requires 24-48 hours before vehicles can use the surface. We add buffer time for weather delays since asphalt can’t be laid in rain or freezing temperatures.
We coordinate the work to minimize disruption to your business. That might mean working in sections so part of your lot stays accessible, or scheduling the project during your slow season. Our emergency response capability means we can expedite critical repairs when needed.
An asphalt overlay adds a new layer over existing pavement, while complete replacement removes everything down to the base and starts fresh. Overlay costs about half as much but only works if your existing lot has good bones.
If your current parking lot has minor cracking and surface wear but no major structural issues, overlay can extend its life 10-15 years. However, if there are drainage problems, large cracks, or base failure, overlay just covers up problems that will resurface quickly.
Complete replacement costs more upfront but gives you a 20-30 year lifespan with proper maintenance. We’ll assess your existing lot honestly and recommend the approach that makes financial sense for your situation, not just the option that generates the highest invoice.
Yes, we provide year-round maintenance including snow removal, salt application, and emergency repairs. Our winter services keep your parking lot safe and accessible during upstate New York’s harsh winters.
Snow removal includes plowing after storms and ice management with proper salt or sand application. We’re careful with snow plow operations to avoid damaging your asphalt surface. Our emergency response means we can handle urgent repairs even in winter conditions.
Spring maintenance is equally important. We inspect for winter damage, fill any cracks that developed, and schedule sealcoating if needed. This proactive approach prevents small issues from becoming expensive problems and extends your pavement’s lifespan significantly.
Parking lot sealcoating should be done every 2-4 years in the Elnora area, depending on traffic volume and weather exposure. High-traffic lots need more frequent attention, while lightly used areas can go longer between applications.
Sealcoating protects asphalt from water penetration, UV damage, and chemical spills like oil or gasoline. It also refreshes the appearance and makes line striping more visible. The investment typically runs $0.15-$0.30 per square foot and can double your pavement’s lifespan.
We recommend waiting at least 6 months after new asphalt installation before the first sealcoating application. This allows the asphalt to cure properly and ensures the sealer bonds correctly. We’ll create a maintenance schedule that fits your budget and maximizes pavement life.
Parking lot paving permits depend on project scope and local regulations in Saratoga County. New construction typically requires building permits and site plan approval, while resurfacing existing lots may only need basic permits.
We handle all permit applications and ensure your project meets local codes including ADA compliance, drainage requirements, and setback regulations. Our familiarity with local requirements prevents delays and ensures your project passes inspection the first time.
Permit costs vary but typically range from $200-$1,000 depending on project size. The permitting process usually takes 2-4 weeks, so we start applications early to keep your project on schedule. We’ll walk you through exactly what’s required for your specific situation during the initial consultation.
