Concrete Parking Lot Vs. Asphalt Parking Lot

As trusted paving contractors in New Orleans, we value our clients and their pavement needs. We provide all the information that each client needs to make a wise decision on the best material suited for the paving project.

If you want to resurface your parking lot or you need to construct a new one, here are the top benefits of concrete and asphalt for parking lot paving needs:

Concrete Parking Lot Benefits

1. They perform well even in hot weather because the material is hard enough and will not change in extremely high temperatures.
2. The lighter color of concrete allows it to have a lower temperature surface during summer.
3. Concrete parking lots have a long lifespan and are generally low maintenance.
4. There are many design and color options available for concrete paving projects.

Asphalt Parking Lot Benefits

1. Fast installation process. Asphalt pavement can be finished in a few days depending on the size of the paving project. But compared to the same area, it takes a shorter time for asphalt paving to set and cure.
2. Asphalt is better for the environment because it can be reused.  Porous mix asphalt or permeable asphalt can help with water drainage. With concrete pavement, water must run off and must be managed to prevent issues.
3. Asphalt has a long lifespan when preventive maintenance is practiced. It can last for twenty or more years when installed with top-quality asphalt and workmanship. This makes it a cost-effective solution for pavement needs.

Asphalt parking lots in New Orleans perform very well when installed properly. With our asphalt contractors who are knowledgeable in the best quality asphalt to use in parking lot paving, your parking lot will be both durable and aesthetic.

• Subgrade Surface Evaluation and Installation

For every asphalt pavement project, our expert paving contractor will conduct a site visit for a subgrade surface evaluation. This will allow the asphalt paving team to determine the best method and product to use for your subgrade and if your subgrade needs to be replaced as well.

We make sure that your asphalt pavement will have a sound and strong subgrade. Our asphalt pavement installation process involves the following steps:

1. Demolishing and removing damaged or deteriorating surfaces (asphalt, concrete, or pavers).
2. Grading and sloping using the best tools and equipment to ensure that water will run off efficiently.
3. Preparing the sub base and making sure that it is stable, compact, and able to withstand freezing and thawing.
4. Proof rolling to ensure that the asphalt pavement sub-base is strong.
5. Undercutting to repair soft spots and installing stronger aggregate material to the sub-base.
6. Adding a very strong and durable binder.
7. Installing the new asphalt surface that is clean, smooth, shiny, and attractive.
8. Butting joints and transitions provide a smooth transition from the old asphalt surface to the new asphalt pavement.
9. Compacting and smoothing the entire surface of the new asphalt pavement.

• Asphalt Repaving and Grading

Any pavement can reach its end of life. This requires paving to be redone, especially on parking lots that are often used.

Visible Signs of Paving Aging and Pavement Disrepair

• Raveling

Our asphalt pavement repair services for parking lots include dealing with traveling. Raveling happens when the brittle surface of asphalt gets washed away diminishing pavement thickness.

• Cracking

When you see cracks on your parking lot surface, it may have been caused by the expansion and contraction of the asphalt because of variations in temperature. We provide asphalt solutions for cracking issues on asphalt pavements.

• Alligatoring

The sub-grade of your asphalt can experience alligatoring. External elements like rain can cause unstable and unsupported pavement on your asphalt. We offer repair and reconstruction of asphalt parking lots that have this problem.

• Potholes

Potholes can cause costly issues if they are not dealt with immediately. Call us immediately if you notice potholes on your parking lot asphalt pavement.
