What's Included in Your Commercial Asphalt Project with Western Asphalt Company?

Commercial asphalt projects with us cover everything from new installations to full replacements of parking lots, access roads, and industrial surfaces. We manage the entire process, including site preparation, proper grading, base installation, and applying the asphalt layers. Our goal is to give your business a surface that handles heavy traffic and lasts for years.

We start by assessing your site and understanding your specific needs. This isn't a one-size-fits-all job; a busy retail parking lot needs different considerations than a warehouse access road. We plan the drainage, sub-base requirements, and asphalt thickness to match your operations and expected load.

In Philadelphia, commercial asphalt has to withstand a lot. We deal with freezing winters, hot summers, and the constant wear from trucks and cars. Proper installation and material choice are critical here. We make sure the foundation is solid and the asphalt mix is right for our local climate and traffic conditions, preventing premature cracking and potholes.

Many businesses worry about disruption during paving. We work with you to schedule projects efficiently, minimizing impact on your operations and customers. We plan logistics carefully to keep your business accessible while we get the job done right. You'll know what to expect every step of the way.

How Long Does Commercial Asphalt Last in Philadelphia's Climate?

A well-installed commercial asphalt surface in Philadelphia can last 15 to 20 years, sometimes more, with proper maintenance. The key is how it's put down and how you take care of it. Our city's freeze-thaw cycles and heavy vehicle traffic put a lot of stress on pavement.

Poor drainage is a big problem here. Water pooling on asphalt, especially in winter, leads to cracking and potholes much faster. We design and grade commercial projects to shed water effectively, protecting your investment from premature failure caused by Philly's weather.

Choosing the right asphalt mix and ensuring a solid base are crucial for longevity. We use materials designed to handle the specific demands of commercial properties in our region, meaning your parking lot or access road won't break down after just a few years.
