1. How long does parking lot paving take?
Project timelines vary depending on the size and scope of the parking lot, but most paving projects are completed within a few days. Our team at Ace Asphalt works efficiently to minimize downtime for your business while ensuring top-quality results.

2. How thick should asphalt be for a commercial parking lot?
Most commercial parking lots require between 3 to 6 inches of asphalt, depending on expected traffic loads. Heavier-use areas, such as drive lanes or loading zones, may need additional thickness and a stronger base layer for added durability.

3. What’s the difference between resurfacing and repaving a parking lot?
Resurfacing (or asphalt overlay) involves milling off the top layer and applying new asphalt over a sound base—ideal for lots with moderate wear. Repaving requires removing the existing asphalt entirely and rebuilding from the base up, which is best when there’s significant damage or drainage issues.

4. How long will a new asphalt parking lot last?
With proper installation and maintenance, an asphalt parking lot can last 20 to 30 years. Regular sealcoating, crack filling, and prompt repairs will help protect your investment and extend its lifespan.

5. Does Ace Asphalt offer parking lot maintenance services?
Yes! In addition to new installations, Ace Asphalt provides ongoing maintenance services including crack sealing, patching, sealcoating, and asphalt milling & resurfacing. Routine upkeep helps prevent costly repairs and keeps your parking lot looking professional year-round.
