Parking Lot Services
Full-service parking lot construction and maintenance
What is Parking Lot Services?
Comprehensive parking lot services encompass the full lifecycle of commercial pavement management, from initial design and construction through ongoing maintenance and eventual rehabilitation. This integrated approach combines multiple disciplines including civil engineering for drainage and grading, materials science for pavement design, and traffic engineering for layout optimization. Professional parking lot services go beyond simple paving to create safe, functional, and attractive spaces that enhance property value while minimizing long-term costs through strategic maintenance planning.
Materials & Composition
Parking lot construction utilizes engineered materials including processed aggregate base (TDOT Grade A), hot mix asphalt in multiple courses (base and surface), polymer-modified binders for high-traffic areas, and specialized mixes for heavy truck zones. Maintenance materials include crack sealants, sealcoating products, cold patch for repairs, and thermoplastic or paint for striping. Modern lots increasingly incorporate permeable pavement sections for stormwater management and recycled materials for sustainability. Material selection considers traffic loads, climate conditions, and maintenance strategies.

How Parking Lot Services is Made
Modern parking lot services utilize a systematic approach starting with geotechnical analysis to determine soil conditions and design appropriate base structures. Advanced CAD software optimizes layout for maximum capacity while meeting ADA requirements and local codes. Construction employs GPS-guided equipment for precise grading, ensuring proper 1-2% slope for drainage. The multi-layer pavement structure includes compacted subgrade, aggregate base, and hot mix asphalt surface courses. Post-construction services include preventive maintenance scheduling, condition assessments, and timely interventions to maximize pavement life.
Site Assessment & Design
Evaluate existing conditions, soil testing, drainage analysis, and create optimized layout meeting all codes.
Permits & Approvals
Secure necessary permits, coordinate utility locates, and obtain required municipal approvals.
Earthwork & Grading
Excavate to proper depth, install drainage infrastructure, and create precise grades for water management.
Base Installation
Place and compact aggregate base layers, ensuring proper thickness and density for long-term stability.
Asphalt Paving
Install hot mix asphalt in multiple lifts, achieving proper compaction and smooth finish.
Finishing & Striping
Apply pavement markings, install signage, complete landscaping, and perform final inspections.
Engineered for Tennessee
Tennessee parking lots face unique challenges from the state's variable climate and clay soil conditions. The region's 50+ inches of annual rainfall requires robust drainage systems and careful attention to subgrade stabilization. Summer temperatures exceeding 95°F combined with heavy rain can cause stripping in poorly designed mixes. Winter freeze-thaw cycles demand flexible pavement designs that accommodate movement. Local regulations increasingly require stormwater management features. East Tennessee's hilly terrain often necessitates retaining walls and specialized grading. Our regional expertise ensures lots are engineered specifically for Tennessee conditions.
