Parking Lots That Actually Last

Your customers notice when they pull into a smooth, well-maintained parking lot. They also notice when they don’t.

A properly installed commercial asphalt surface does more than look professional. It handles heavy traffic without cracking, drains water instead of pooling it, and gives you years before you need to think about major repairs.

You get surfaces built to handle Hampton Bays weather – from summer heat to winter freeze-thaw cycles. The right base preparation and quality materials mean fewer emergency calls and lower long-term costs. Your maintenance budget stays predictable instead of getting hit with surprise expenses every few months.

We Know Commercial Asphalt

All Purpose Paving handles commercial paving projects across Hampton Bays and Suffolk County. We work with business owners, property managers, and developers who need asphalt work done right the first time.

Our team understands the local conditions that affect pavement performance – from coastal salt air to heavy seasonal traffic patterns. We’ve been working in this area long enough to know which approaches work and which ones cause problems down the road.

When you’re dealing with commercial properties, timing matters. We plan projects around your business needs and stick to schedules that minimize disruption to your operations.

Commercial Asphalt Installation Process

Straightforward Process, Professional Results

We start with a site evaluation to assess your current conditions and drainage needs. This tells us what base work is required and helps us plan the most efficient approach for your timeline.

Next comes proper excavation and base preparation. This step determines how long your pavement will last, so we don’t cut corners. We install the right depth of compacted stone base for your expected traffic load.

The asphalt installation happens when weather conditions are optimal. We use commercial-grade hot mix asphalt, properly compacted in lifts to achieve the density your surface needs. Final grading ensures proper drainage away from buildings and toward designated areas.

After the asphalt cures, we handle line striping and any required signage to meet ADA compliance and local parking regulations.

Industrial Paving Services

Complete Commercial Asphalt Solutions

Our commercial paving covers new parking lot installation, loading dock areas, access roads, and industrial surfaces. We handle everything from small business parking areas to large retail center projects.

You get proper base preparation designed for your specific traffic loads, whether that’s employee parking or heavy delivery trucks. We install drainage systems that prevent water damage and extend pavement life in Hampton Bays’ coastal environment.

The work includes ADA-compliant accessibility features, proper grading for safety and drainage, and line striping that meets local requirements. We coordinate with other trades when needed and work around your business schedule to minimize operational disruption.

For existing surfaces, we provide crack sealing, patching, overlay installation, and full reconstruction when repair isn’t cost-effective anymore.

Most commercial parking lots take 2-5 days depending on size and complexity. Small business parking areas often complete in 1-2 days, while larger retail or industrial projects may take a week or more. Weather affects timing since we can’t install asphalt in rain or when temperatures are too cold. We provide realistic schedules upfront and communicate any delays immediately. The key factors are excavation requirements, base preparation needs, and the total square footage of asphalt being installed.
Commercial asphalt uses thicker applications and stronger base preparation to handle heavier traffic loads. While residential driveways might use 2-3 inches of asphalt over a basic stone base, commercial installations typically require 3-4 inches of asphalt over a deeper, more robust stone base. The asphalt mix itself is often different too, designed for durability under constant traffic rather than occasional use. Commercial projects also require proper drainage systems, ADA compliance features, and line striping that meets local parking regulations.
If more than 30% of your parking lot shows significant cracking, pothole formation, or drainage problems, replacement usually makes more financial sense than ongoing repairs. Surface issues like minor cracks or isolated potholes can often be repaired cost-effectively. However, if you’re seeing alligator cracking (interconnected cracks that look like reptile skin), widespread settling, or water pooling in multiple areas, the base has likely failed and needs reconstruction. We can assess your specific situation and provide honest recommendations about repair versus replacement costs.
Most commercial paving projects require permits from the Town of Southampton, especially if you’re changing drainage patterns or expanding paved areas. New construction typically needs site plan approval and building permits. Resurfacing existing areas often requires simpler permits, but you’ll still need approvals for any drainage modifications. ADA compliance is mandatory for all commercial properties and must meet current accessibility standards. We help coordinate permit applications and ensure all work meets local codes, but the property owner is ultimately responsible for obtaining required approvals before work begins.
Light vehicle traffic can typically resume within 24-48 hours after installation, depending on weather conditions and asphalt thickness. Heavy trucks and delivery vehicles should wait at least 3-5 days to avoid leaving tire marks or indentations in the surface. Hot weather extends curing time, while cooler temperatures allow faster traffic resumption. We provide specific timing recommendations based on your installation conditions and traffic needs. For businesses that can’t close completely, we often phase installation to keep some parking areas available throughout the project.
Crack sealing every 2-3 years prevents water infiltration that causes base damage and potholes. Sealcoating every 3-5 years protects against oxidation and extends surface life, though it’s more critical for high-traffic areas. Regular sweeping removes debris that can cause drainage problems, and prompt pothole repair prevents small issues from becoming major problems. Line striping typically needs refreshing every 2-3 years depending on traffic volume. In Hampton Bays’ coastal environment, salt removal after winter storms helps prevent accelerated deterioration. A good maintenance program can double your pavement’s lifespan compared to neglected surfaces.
