COMMERCIAL PAVING CONTRACTOR
Parking Lots Designed for Traffic, Drainage and Curb Appeal
Your parking lot is the first thing customers, tenants and visitors see. It also carries delivery trucks, garbage trucks and constant turning traffic, and it has to move heavy North Texas rain to the drains. HI-TEK Paving provides parking lot paving and installation in Forney and across Kaufman County and Dallas–Fort Worth for property owners and managers who need a lot that works and lasts.
We handle the whole project: site assessment, demolition of failed pavement, grading, subgrade and base, asphalt or concrete paving, concrete aprons and dumpster pads, and finally parking lot striping, ADA stalls and fire lanes. One contractor and one schedule means fewer delays and clearer accountability.
✓ New parking lot construction
✓ Full-depth reconstruction of failed lots
✓ Asphalt fields with concrete heavy-load areas

WHO WE SERVE
Parking Lot Construction for Every Commercial Property
Each property type uses its lot differently. We plan pavement thickness, layout and phasing around how your lot is actually used, from peak arrival times to the routes delivery and garbage trucks take, so the finished lot handles real traffic and keeps customers moving.
Retail & Shopping Centers
High-turnover lots for strip centers along US-80 and beyond, phased so tenants stay open during paving.
Offices & Medical
Clean, accessible lots with clear ADA routes and well-marked visitor parking.
Churches & Schools
Lots that handle peak arrivals, drop-off lanes and pedestrian safety, scheduled around services and calendars.
Industrial & Warehouse
Heavy-duty pavement sections for trucks, trailers and loading docks, often with concrete in high-stress areas.
Apartments & HOAs
Resident parking and private drives paved in phases with notice plans that keep residents informed.
Restaurants & Drive-Thrus
Durable drive-thru lanes and stalls that resist oil, fuel and constant turning traffic.
Our Parking Lot Paving Process
From the first walk-through to the final stripe, here is how a HI-TEK Paving parking lot project runs.
01
Consultation
We discuss traffic, layout goals, timing and how the lot must stay usable during work.
02
Assessment & Estimate
We measure, check drainage and soil, and provide a clear estimate without hidden costs.
03
Demo & Grading
Old pavement is removed and the site graded so water flows to inlets and curbs.
04
Subgrade & Base
Subgrade is compacted and base installed to support cars and trucks on clay soil.
05
Paving
Asphalt is placed and rolled, with concrete pads and aprons where loads require.
06

What Is Parking Lot Paving and Installation?
Parking lot paving and installation is the full construction of a parking area: grading for drainage, preparing and compacting the subgrade, placing a stone base, paving with asphalt or concrete, and finishing with striping, accessible spaces and signage. Reconstruction follows the same steps after removing failed pavement and base.
What Affects the Cost of Parking Lot Paving?
Parking lot cost depends on lot size, demolition of existing pavement, earthwork and drainage, soil conditions, base and asphalt thickness for the traffic, concrete pads or aprons, phasing to keep a business open, striping and ADA work, and site access. Every lot is different, so an on-site assessment is the starting point.
Planning a Parking Lot That Works
- Traffic loads: heavier sections for truck routes, dumpster approaches and fire lanes.
- Drainage: consistent slopes to inlets and curb openings so water never ponds.
- Layout: stall angles, aisle widths and clear circulation.
- Accessibility: accessible stalls and routes near entrances.
- Materials: asphalt fields with concrete paving where loads concentrate.
Local Conditions That Shape Lot Design
Forney sits on expansive Blackland Prairie clay, and DFW weather swings from long, hot dry spells to intense spring rain and the occasional hard freeze. Lots built here need a well-compacted subgrade, adequate base, and drainage that clears water fast. Heat also softens asphalt in summer, so pavement thickness in turning and stopping areas matters.
New Construction Sequence
- Site assessment and estimate.
- Demolition and haul-off of old pavement.
- Grading and drainage shaping.
- Subgrade compaction and base installation.
- Asphalt or concrete paving.
- Curing, then parking lot striping.
- Final walk-through.
After the Lot Is Built
Protect the investment with crack sealing, seal coating once the asphalt cures, and a scheduled maintenance plan that keeps striping crisp and catches small failures early.

How Is a New Parking Lot Laid Out?
A new parking lot layout balances the number of stalls with safe circulation. Designers consider stall angle and width, aisle width, entrances and exits, accessible parking near building entrances, fire lanes, pedestrian routes, landscaping islands and where stormwater will flow. Local codes and the property's site plan set many of the requirements.
Common Parking Lot Paving Mistakes
- Uniform thickness everywhere: truck routes and dumpster areas need heavier sections.
- Flat areas: pavement without consistent slope holds water and fails early.
- Skipping base repairs during reconstruction: old weak spots return.
- Poor phasing: closing a whole lot at once can shut a business down.
- Late striping decisions: changing layouts after paving costs time and money.
- No maintenance plan: new lots still need crack sealing and sealcoating.
Reconstruction vs. Resurfacing for Older Lots
Older parking lots in Forney and across Kaufman County often show widespread alligator cracking, potholes and ponding where the base has been weakened by years of water and clay movement. When those failures cover much of the lot, reconstruction rebuilds the base and surface together. When the base is mostly sound, asphalt resurfacing with targeted repairs can deliver a like-new surface for less.
Questions to Ask Before Paving a Lot
- How will you keep my business open during construction?
- What base and pavement thickness are you proposing for each area?
- Where will water drain, and are inlets or flumes needed?
- Are concrete pads or aprons included?
- Are striping and accessible markings part of the quote?
- Who is my contact on site?
Timing Your Project
Spring through fall is typical paving season in North Texas, but many projects proceed in mild winter weather too. Retail properties often prefer to avoid the holiday season, while schools and churches schedule around calendars. Planning early gives the most flexibility.

Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about parking lot paving, parking lot construction and reconstruction in Forney and DFW. For questions about your specific property, we are happy to meet on site, look at the current pavement and explain the options in plain language.
Can my business stay open during parking lot paving?
In most cases, yes. We divide the lot into phases, keep at least one entrance and some parking open, and use barricades and signage to guide customers. We plan the phasing with you before work begins.
Should my lot be resurfaced or rebuilt?
If the base is mostly sound, resurfacing with targeted base repairs is usually the better value. When the base has failed across much of the lot, with widespread alligator cracking, potholes and standing water, full reconstruction is the lasting fix. We will show you what we find.
Asphalt or concrete for a new parking lot?
Many lots combine both: asphalt for parking fields because it costs less and is easy to maintain, and concrete for dumpster pads, aprons and truck routes where loads concentrate. We install both and recommend the mix that fits your budget and use.
Do you handle ADA parking and striping?
Yes. Striping is where HI-TEK Paving began. We lay out stalls, accessible spaces and access aisles, fire lanes, arrows and crosswalks as part of the project.
How long does a new parking lot take?
Timelines depend on size, demolition, base work, weather and phasing. Smaller lots can take days, while larger reconstructions take longer. Your estimate includes a realistic schedule.
How do I get a parking lot paving estimate?
