Hear From Our Clients
Your parking lot is the first thing customers see when they visit your business. Cracked, uneven pavement doesn’t just look unprofessional—it creates real liability risks that could cost you thousands in accident claims.
Professional parking lot paving eliminates those safety hazards while giving your property the polished appearance that builds customer confidence. A properly installed asphalt surface can handle heavy traffic for 15-20 years with basic maintenance, protecting your investment and avoiding the disruption of emergency repairs.
When you choose quality paving, you’re investing in fewer headaches, better customer impressions, and long-term savings that add up year after year.
We’ve been serving French Mountain and the surrounding region for over 25 years as an owner-operated paving company. You work directly with the owner from your first call through project completion—no middlemen, no confusion, just straightforward communication.
The French Mountain area’s commercial properties, from the busy French Mountain Commons to local service businesses, need paving contractors who understand the unique demands of New York’s climate and traffic patterns. We’ve handled everything from small business lots to large commercial installations, building our reputation one satisfied customer at a time.
Our approach is simple: competitive pricing, quality materials, and the kind of personal attention that comes from being locally owned and invested in this community’s success.
Every parking lot paving project starts with a thorough site evaluation. We assess your current pavement condition, drainage needs, and any grading requirements to give you an accurate estimate upfront—no hidden costs or change orders later.
Site preparation is where quality paving begins. We handle excavation, proper base installation, and drainage solutions to ensure your new asphalt has the foundation it needs to last. This isn’t the place to cut corners, and we don’t.
The paving process itself moves quickly once preparation is complete. We use professional-grade equipment and hot-mix asphalt designed for commercial traffic loads. Most parking lots are ready for use within days, not weeks, minimizing disruption to your business operations.

Our parking lot paving services include everything needed for a complete installation: site preparation, proper drainage, quality asphalt application, and professional striping. We also handle ongoing maintenance like sealcoating and crack repair to protect your investment.
French Mountain’s commercial properties face specific challenges from New York’s freeze-thaw cycles and heavy seasonal traffic. Our asphalt mixes are selected for local conditions, and our installation methods account for the thermal expansion and drainage requirements that keep pavement intact through harsh winters.
Whether you need a complete parking lot replacement, resurfacing of existing asphalt, or emergency repairs, we have the equipment and experience to handle projects of any size. Our emergency response capability means we can address urgent issues that affect your business operations or create safety hazards for customers.
Parking lot paving costs in French Mountain typically range from $2.50 to $4.50 per square foot for asphalt, depending on site conditions and project complexity. A standard 10,000 square foot commercial lot averages $25,000 to $45,000 for complete installation.
Several factors affect your final cost: current pavement condition, drainage requirements, site accessibility, and any necessary grading work. Properties requiring extensive prep work or dealing with poor soil conditions will be on the higher end of the range.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs upfront, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises, no change orders—just honest pricing based on a thorough evaluation of your specific project needs.
Most parking lot paving projects in French Mountain take 2-4 weeks from start to finish, depending on size and complexity. The actual paving work happens much faster—typically 1-3 days—but proper site preparation takes time to do right.
Weather plays a role in scheduling, especially during spring and fall when temperature swings can affect asphalt quality. We plan projects during optimal conditions to ensure the best results and longest-lasting pavement.
Your lot is usually ready for light traffic within 24-48 hours after paving, with full use recommended after 3-7 days. This quick turnaround minimizes business disruption compared to concrete paving, which requires weeks of curing time before use.
New asphalt parking lots need sealcoating every 2-3 years to protect against water infiltration, UV damage, and chemical spills. This preventive maintenance extends pavement life significantly and maintains that professional black appearance.
Regular crack sealing addresses minor issues before they become major problems. Small cracks that develop from settling or thermal expansion should be filled promptly to prevent water from reaching the base layer and causing more extensive damage.
Routine sweeping and debris removal keeps your lot looking professional while preventing materials that can break down asphalt over time. Most commercial properties benefit from monthly or quarterly maintenance schedules that address these issues systematically rather than waiting for emergency repairs.
Paving over existing surfaces is possible in many cases, but it depends on the current pavement’s condition and structural integrity. If the existing base is sound with only surface-level issues, an overlay can be a cost-effective solution.
However, if the current pavement has significant cracking, settling, or drainage problems, a complete removal and rebuild is usually the better long-term investment. Putting new asphalt over a failing foundation just delays more expensive problems.
We evaluate each project individually, checking for proper drainage, base stability, and structural soundness. Our assessment tells you whether overlay, partial reconstruction, or complete replacement makes the most sense for your specific situation and budget.
Yes, we handle all aspects of parking lot completion including professional striping, ADA-compliant accessible spaces, and proper signage installation. Compliance with accessibility requirements isn’t optional—it’s a legal necessity that protects your business.
ADA requirements include specific dimensions for accessible parking spaces, proper slopes for wheelchair access, and designated pathways to building entrances. We stay current with these regulations to ensure your lot meets all federal and state requirements.
Our striping work uses high-quality paint designed for traffic durability and visibility in all weather conditions. We can also install or refresh fire lane markings, loading zone designations, and any custom striping your property requires for optimal traffic flow.
Asphalt costs less upfront ($2.50-$4.50 per sq ft vs $4-$7 for concrete) and can be ready for use within days rather than weeks. It also handles freeze-thaw cycles better than concrete, making it ideal for New York’s climate conditions.
Concrete lasts longer in ideal conditions but is more susceptible to cracking from road salt and temperature changes common in our area. It also requires significantly longer installation time, which means more business disruption during construction.
For most French Mountain commercial properties, asphalt provides the best combination of durability, cost-effectiveness, and quick installation. The faster project completion and lower maintenance requirements make it the practical choice for businesses that can’t afford extended downtime.
