Stage 1
Prep and base work
Subgrade, stone base, and drainage setup establish the platform the pavement will depend on.
Commercial Asphalt Paving
Durable, high-performance asphalt surfaces for parking lots, subdivisions, industrial facilities, and municipal streets.
New Parking Lot Installation
What a new lot build looks like from prep through final surface.
Stage 2
Fine grading and edge definition
Before asphalt goes down, the site has to be shaped correctly so grades, tie-ins, and elevations work the way they should.
Stage 3
Paving and finish work
Final paving is where prep shows. Clean transitions, consistent mat quality, and proper compaction are what carry the result forward.
Parking Lot Overlay
When an overlay makes sense and when replacement is the better call.
An overlay adds a new layer of asphalt over an existing surface, but only when the pavement underneath is still sound enough to support it.
Overlay guidelines
- Best for pavement that is still structurally sound
- Surface must be able to handle repairs, crack filling, cleaning, and prep first
- Leveling may be needed before the finish course goes down
- Existing asphalt should have enough remaining depth to support the overlay
- If milling or deep failures are extensive, replacement may be the better path
Before 
After The C&R Advantage
Why commercial clients choose C&R.
The difference is not just the asphalt. It is the ability to keep prep, hauling, paving, and finish work coordinated with our own crews and equipment from start to finish.
Pavers
Modern paving equipment helps us hold mat quality, move efficiently, and keep larger commercial jobs on schedule.
Dump Trucks
Owning the haul fleet gives us tighter control over material flow, delivery timing, and production on paving day.
Excavation Equipment
When prep, grading, and tear-out are part of the job, we can keep the work in-house instead of handing off critical steps.
Your Project
What we evaluate before we recommend the paving approach.
The right recommendation depends on what is failing, what is still sound, and what the site needs to do once the work is complete.
- Project size, access, phasing, and site logistics
- Current pavement condition, including cracking, rutting, and soft spots
- Whether sawcut tear-outs are needed for proper tie-ins and drainage
- Low areas that may require leveling or reconstruction before final paving
- Expected traffic loads and the base/asphalt thickness needed to support them
- Drainage concerns, expansions, and owner expectations for long-term use
