The Written Estimate
The Written Estimate
We want to reassure you (potential clients) that our free asphalt pavement inspection, followed with a written detailed estimate for requested services, will be accomplished by a senior member of the staff or the owner. This is to ensure that all possible avenues have been explored and rated for positives versus any negatives. We do this to provide our clients with choices, and only our most senior members can advise numerous workable solutions.
Our estimates will consider cost, longevity, and appearance. It’s a false economy to repair the surface without addressing the causal agent of deterioration- you may have to go through another repair in a few years. Whereas, making the most cost effect appropriate repair will give years of trouble free service for your property enhancing its value.
We will give you the tools you need to decide what’s best for your property. The written assessment and estimate for desired asphalt pavement services can be delivered by hand or email (your preference). We encourage contact for questions that may arise, but other than that we will not hound you.
After the contract is signed, costs do not change except when changes are made.

Our Beginnings & Capabilities:
Charlotte NC Paving was established by a 3rd generation blacktop paver. Educated unknowingly, in his youth, while listening to dinner conversations between his father and grandfather about hard-earned successes and troubles to set right within their business. This education of passive listening, plus the years of hard work on his family's company's job sites, developed within him an intimate understanding of how to build attractive robust roads, spacious parking lots, and problems to watch out for. Also, working the decades from teenager to man, not only developed strength of body but clarified an attitude that how one performs a job is a reflection of one's character. Lastly, holding this positive attitude encourages happiness and contentment with a job well done.
10 years we've been building our asphalt/blacktop paving business and all that time it has sustained several young families- we are grateful to all our clients over the past years and look forward to providing excellent service to many more.

Reasons to Install a Asphalt/Blacktop Parking Lot
First Impressions
Many clients will pass by your business without dedicated parking instead of finding parking along the street- many just don’t want the trouble of a search or the hassle to parallel park.
First encounters of a customer or client cautiously traversing a muddy gravel based parking lot is hard to counter even when a pleasant interior for shopping or awesome service awaits. People are more likely to visit your establishment and spend money if you create a welcoming and safe environment.

Eliminate Trip and Fall Hazards
Seniors have good reason to be afraid to risk a walk through a worn broken parking lot but so do women in high heels, mothers with small children, and motorists not willing to ruin their car alignment or risk flat tires- all will pass such places by. Such downtrodden parking lots with potholes, ponding water and pavement markings missing or worn out have a higher rate of personal injury lawsuits over well-maintained ones. Also, ill maintained parking lots encourage littering. When rubbish piles up in a parking lot, it will not only cause trip and fall hazards but encourage the presence of rodents, raccoons, stray cats, and swarms of annoying insects. All of these ignored parking lot maintenance issues lead (in time) to public health and safety violations.

Important Considerations
Laying top quality and long performing blacktop/asphalt pavement for roadways and parking lots begins with understanding how incompetent application procedures, practiced by companies quoting impossibly low ball estimates, result in premature failure, such as:
Poor drainage design leads to water infiltration which, over time, causes pavement breakup.
Grading done poorly, by inexperience pavers or just incompetent ones, will lead to ponding of water.
Insufficient materials laid down during preparation of the subbase will cause pavement breakup due to stress fractures.
Careless compaction of the layers in the asphalt pavement will cause depressions as the voids compact from use over time.
All of the previous factors are paramount during our design process and then correctly implemented (all work is double checked by crew leaders) to provide our clients with a robust attractive parking lot or road. After all, roads and parking lots are a building's Gateway, critical to the safety and overall impression of the motoring users.

Commercial Property Parking Lot & Road Repairs
All property owners should keep in mind that it takes far less money to fix a good road in need of some maintenance versus reconstructing a bad road in need of lots of maintenance.
Most asphalt pavement decay can be traced back to water infiltration into the pavement structure. Good drainage design along with crack sealing is single most important maintenance activity that can be performed regularly to stop or delay pavement decay. However, sometimes resurfacing or replacement is the only advise we can give because repairs over a compromised foundation will not last long. What’s underneath the pavement will always reflective through.

Crack Sealing for Roads and Parking Lots
Preparation of the crack is important for good adhesion or bonding. If the cracks are small they can be blown out to remove all loose material using high pressure air, sandblasting, wire brushing, or high-pressure water. Then the crack should be filled with sealant carefully from the bottom of the crack to the top of the crack to prevent air bubbles. Air bubbles create weak spaces in the asphalt which will cave in with time. Crack sealing will last three to eight years depend on condition of pavement, climate, materials used, and technique.

Pot Hole Repair for Roads and Parking Lots
All deteriorated material is removed from the Pot hole then using high pressure air all the dust of the crumbling pavement or other debris is blown free of the hole. Sometimes some of the subgrade needs to be removed to reach firm support, but whatever is removed is replaced and compacted. Finally, an asphalt mix, specific for patching holes, is filled into the hole then compacted with a roller. We guarantee all repairs.

Resurfacing Asphalt Roads or Parking Lots
Asphalt Resurfacing, or overlay, is a way of repairing existing asphalt by paving over-top of it. There are certain preparations for constructing an overlay, which include milling, or shaving, the original pavement into a more even surface to help match the existing landscaping around it. Areas that are in very poor condition must be removed and patched. The pavement is cleaned, an adhesive (called a tack coat) is laid down, and then the new asphalt can be applied in layers.
Resurfacing Advantages
Overlaying is less expensive than fully reconstructing a paved surface, and typically takes less time, making it a great option when considering major asphalt repairs. This is more appealing for a large parking lot as it is less costly to resurface a large area then to replace it. Life expectancy for an overlay or resurfaced parking lot is 8-10 years if properly maintained.

Resurfacing Disadvantages
Cracking in the existing surface, such as alligator cracking or its end result “potholes” are classic subbase/foundation problems that should be fixed or once again any cracking in the existing asphalt will come back up through the overlay- this is called “reflective cracking”. Most of asphalt pavement failures can be linked back to a subbase infiltrated by water. It is very important that water runs away from the pavement rather than towards it. Good drainage design and proper grading forms the base upon which all else is built.

We design and install roads, paths, walkways and parking lots. We offer valuable advice learned over 3 generations- hopefully saving you from ill-advised guidance offered up by some inexperienced pavers. You will never be held up by us for costly mistakes attributed to ignorance. Plus, we preform maintenance at regular intervals on our fleet of industrial specialized paving machines and trucks so no worries over equipment failures to push back your schedule. We will keep clients informed every step of the way- keeping clients informed displays our respect, generates goodwill and takes little effort.
Thoughts to Keep in Mind
An aesthetically pleasing building will be overshadowed by an ill-conceived parking lot that does not move traffic well, such as: parking lanes abruptly ending without a way to turn around, entrance from the busiest side street, movement hampered by turning vehicles, awkward spaces not marked that end up as made-up parking spots, light poles or signs sharing marked parking space and confusing pavement markings. We have all driven in such parking lots and afterwards tend to avoid them in the future. Consultations with successful and experienced asphalt pavers will help turn the theoretically designed parking lot into a practical positive experience that will help motorists find unoccupied parking spaces, retrieve their vehicles and exit swiftly.
