The first step onto a property sets the tone for the entire experience. Whether it’s the residents of an apartment building, congregants at a place of worship, students bustling about their school grounds, or employees navigating the parking lot of their office buildings, the condition and quality of the pavement matter. Commercial paving not only ensures safety and functionality for you and all who access your establishment but also speaks volumes about the care and attention you dedicate to those who rely on your facilities. Places like HOA communities, churches, schools, office buildings, and apartment complexes all benefit from expertly laid and maintained paving, elevating their appeal and ensuring a seamless experience for everyone.
For many in Colorado Springs, the condition of the asphalt or pavement is more than just a functional necessity; it reflects their commitment to excellence. When you offer your stakeholders a well-paved space, you’re telling them that you prioritize their safety, comfort, and overall satisfaction. And while the underlying technicalities of commercial paving may not be at the forefront of everyone’s mind, the end results surely are.

When creating a parking lot that stands the test of time and the pressures of daily use, every step in the process counts. At Apex Asphalt Paving, we pride ourselves on our holistic approach to parking lot installation in Colorado Springs. While each project brings unique requirements and challenges, the steps we follow to ensure consistency, durability, and functionality. Here’s a glimpse into how we bring your parking space to life:
1. Planning, Design & Permits
Collaborating closely with expert engineers, we craft a design that not only functions seamlessly but also optimizes the space designated for parking. Our meticulous planning ensures every square foot counts and serves a purpose.
2. Site Preparation
Our full-service expertise shines through as we undertake the foundational work, prepping the site and setting the stage for superior asphalt paving.
The strength and longevity of any parking lot hinge on its base. We predominantly employ recycled road base, adjusting the depth according to the soil conditions and the intended parking lot usage. Whether it’s a light-duty lot requiring an 8” aggregate or a heavy-duty space demanding up to 15”, we ensure it’s done right.
As we transition to this phase, our fleet of specialized equipment converges on your site. While it may seem like a bustling hub of activity, rest assured, it’s a synchronized dance of precision. From paving machines ensuring uniform asphalt thickness to the succession of dump trucks delivering hot asphalt, our team works in harmony to achieve optimal results.
5. Asphalt Compaction:
To attain the desired durability, the freshly laid asphalt undergoes rigorous compaction using an array of rollers. From pneumatic rollers with rubber tires to vibrating drums of varied sizes, we ensure every inch is compacted to perfection.
Every great work of art needs its final touches. With clear lines, arrows for direction, fire lane indicators, and dedicated spots for disabled parking, our striping ensures ADA compliance and lends your parking lot a polished, professional appearance.
If your parking lot has stood the test of time and remains in good condition, an asphalt overlay might be the ideal solution to extend its lifespan further. Essentially, an asphalt overlay is placing a fresh layer of asphalt over the existing one. It’s recommended when the subbase and asphalt is structurally sound, and there are no underlying drainage or grading challenges to address.
Here’s a breakdown of our meticulously executed asphalt overlay process:
Every successful overlay starts with a pristine base. We commence by cleaning the current surface, ensuring every crevice and corner is free of debris. Should there be any inconsistencies or imperfections, we address them, even if it means milling certain areas to ensure smooth transitions, especially around sidewalks or aprons.
Think of the tack coat as the glue binding the old and new asphalt layers. By applying this adhesive agent, we ensure that the fresh asphalt layer firmly adheres to the existing surface.
The stage is set, and it’s time for the hot mix asphalt to be laid over the prepped surface. Our team ensures it’s spread uniformly, maintaining consistency throughout. Once the asphalt is laid, we use specialized equipment. We compact the new asphalt, ensuring it’s seamless, durable, and ready for years of use.
When a parking lot shows signs of significant wear and tear, such as numerous potholes, extensive alligator cracking, or grading problems, a mere overlay might not suffice. In such cases, going for a full removal and replacement is often the most prudent choice, ensuring a long-lasting and robust parking surface for years to come.
Here’s a closer look at our thorough removal and replacement process:
Before diving into the procedure, we assess the extent of the damage. This ensures we understand the root of the problem, allowing for targeted and effective solutions.
We don’t just patch up; we remove the deteriorated asphalt entirely, clearing the way for a renewed and resilient surface.
While a new installation typically involves laying a fresh subbase, we focus on rectifying any issues with the existing base in removal and replacement. This could mean addressing inconsistencies, improving drainage, or stabilizing weak spots.
With a solid and reliable base, we spread a fresh layer of high-quality asphalt, ensuring uniformity and precision in every square foot.
At Apex Asphalt Paving, we understand the importance of a well-maintained, durable, and safe parking lot. Whether you’re considering a fresh installation, an overlay to extend your parking lot’s lifespan, or a complete removal and replacement, our dedicated team is equipped to deliver excellence at every step.
