RECENT COMMERCIAL ASPHALT PROJECTS
Church Parking Lot in Stouffville
By addressing crucial issues like poor stormwater management, limited accessibility and undefined parking areas - we not only improved the functionality of the parking lot but also enhanced its safety and appearance. Check out the process here
Parking Lot Repair for Costco in Mississauga
This project required us to repair the designated areas one section at a time to minimize disruption. All of the parking lot construction was completed within 3 days while keeping 85% of the parking stalls available for public use at all times.
Commercial Parking Lot in Richmond Hill
Sometimes you just need to start from scratch. This parking lot was removed and replaced with 2 coats of hot mix asphalt - a base coat of Hl8 and a top coat of Hl3. The newly established line painting helps to promote efficient traffic flow while maximizing use for the tenants and customers.
Gravel Grading for Water Drainage
This entire loading dock depends on two central catch basins for stormwater management (see pylons in image for reference). Once we removed the broken asphalt, we spent a full day regrading the backlot to ensure proper water drainage.
Concrete + Asphalt Road Repair in Toronto
A water main ruptured underground this Toronto community causing the roadway to be shutdown until the pipe was fixed. Once the project was handed over to us, we made quick work of this total road restoration (concrete curbs + asphalt replacement) so that the community could get back to normal as soon as possible.
Asphalt Basketball Court in Markham
Unlike concrete, asphalt will bend before it breaks. This makes asphalt the go-to material for outdoor sporting courts. Projects like these demand a level surface finish while maintaining just enough slope for proper water drainage.

How thick should commercial asphalt be?
When it comes to commercial asphalt paving, one of the most common questions we encounter is, "How thick should the asphalt be?" It's a crucial consideration that affects not only the durability and longevity of the pavement but also its ability to withstand the rigors of daily commercial traffic. In this guide, we'll delve into the ideal thickness for commercial asphalt paving, ensuring your investment stands the test of time.
Understanding Asphalt Thickness
Asphalt thickness refers to the depth of the asphalt layers applied over the aggregate base. This thickness can significantly influence the pavement's performance, including its load-bearing capacity and resistance to wear and tear. It's important to get this aspect right, as too thin an application can lead to premature failures, while too thick an application can be unnecessarily costly.
Factors Influencing Asphalt Thickness
Several factors determine the ideal thickness of a commercial asphalt pavement, including:
Traffic Volume and Load: Heavier vehicles and higher traffic volumes require thicker asphalt to prevent rutting and other forms of distress.
Subgrade Quality: The condition and stability of the underlying soil also play a vital role. Poor subgrade conditions may necessitate a thicker asphalt layer or additional base preparation.
Climate: In areas like Toronto, Ontario, where temperatures can fluctuate significantly, asphalt must be capable of withstanding freeze-thaw cycles without cracking.
Recommended Thickness for Different Applications
For commercial applications, the thickness of the asphalt layer can vary based on the expected use and traffic:
Light Traffic Areas (e.g., small business parking lots): For areas expecting cars and light trucks, a total asphalt thickness of 3 to 4 inches, laid in two layers (base and surface), is typically sufficient.
Medium to Heavy Traffic Areas (e.g., shopping centers, large office complexes): These areas benefit from a thickness of 4 to 6 inches to accommodate higher traffic volumes and heavier vehicles.
Industrial and Heavy-Duty Applications (e.g., loading docks, industrial driveways): For the heaviest applications, a thickness of 6 to 8 inches may be necessary to ensure longevity and durability.

WHY USE ASPHALT IN TORONTO?
Asphalt is the most commonly used material for driveways, roads and parking lots; and there is a good reason for that. It is resistant to water, heat and cold, making it very durable. The most common failure mechanism is fatigue from repeated loading over time, however, if the asphalt is applied properly, it can last a long time without giving you any trouble or headaches. When it comes to industrial or commercial paving, the proper application of asphalt determines how durable and long-lasting it will be. One of the biggest mistakes when applying asphalt is not preparing the surface properly. This includes removing the old asphalt, grading, compacting the soil and applying the crushed rock and subsoil.

-Routine inspections:
-Fill the cracks, clear the chemical deposit and clean the entire area.
-Sweep it often: Do not let water or moisture stay on asphalt for too long. It weakens the surface.Inspect drains: A water logging problem can become huge in moments.
