Asphalt paving questions

The answers Tampa homeowners and property managers ask most.

How much does asphalt paving cost in Tampa?
Residential driveways typically run $3–7 per square foot, and commercial parking lots range from $2.50–5 per square foot. Price depends on project size, base condition, drainage needs, and accessibility. We provide free on-site estimates with detailed line-item pricing.
How long does a new asphalt surface last?
A properly installed asphalt surface in Florida lasts 20–30 years with regular maintenance. Sealcoating every 2–3 years protects against UV damage and rain infiltration, which are the two biggest threats in our climate.
How long does the paving process take?
A typical residential driveway takes 1–2 days. Commercial parking lots can take 3–10 days depending on size and complexity. We provide a detailed timeline before work begins so you can plan accordingly.
Can you pave over existing asphalt?
If the existing base is structurally sound, yes β€” an asphalt overlay is a cost-effective option that adds 15–20 years of life. We'll assess the base during your free estimate and recommend the best approach.
Do you handle permits and inspections?
Yes. For commercial projects and certain residential jobs, permits may be required. We handle all permit applications and coordinate inspections so you don't have to. All work meets Florida DOT specifications and local code requirements.
