What Is Asphalt Typically Used For?
Asphalt is a durable, cost-effective paving material commonly used for commercial roads, parking lots, and other paved surfaces. It’s designed to handle heavy traffic loads, helping surfaces last longer and save money on maintenance and repairs.
Our asphalt paving services include:
Asphalt is a durable and versatile material that creates a smooth, quiet, and safe driving surface. We install asphalt for roadways, access roads, fire lanes, and drive aisles. Its flexibility and quick installation make it an ideal choice for commercial paving projects.
Overlay and resurfacing services renew worn or aging asphalt by adding a fresh layer. This extends pavement life, improves appearance, and enhances overall performance.
Parking lot expansions support increased traffic and property upgrades. Whether you need to expand existing pavement or start a new project, Platinum Paving and Concrete delivers reliable, long-lasting results.
Reclamation and repaving are cost-effective, sustainable options for restoring worn pavement. This process strengthens the surface and improves performance for commercial use.
Patching and pothole repair are fast, effective ways to fix asphalt without replacing the entire pavement. Our team uses proven repair methods, such as hot mix or cold patch, for a seamless, long-lasting fix.
Asphalt vs. Concrete: Which Is Better for Commercial Properties?
Both asphalt and concrete are practical choices for commercial properties. The best choice depends on how the area will be used, traffic levels, and drainage.
Asphalt is ideal for parking lots, access roads, and drive aisles. It’s flexible, handles traffic and temperature changes well, and is usually more cost-effective upfront.
Asphalt paving typically lasts around 25 years and is easy to repair and resurface. Concrete is best for heavy-duty areas like loading docks, curbs, ADA ramps, and parking garages. It costs more initially but provides stronger long-term durability in high-stress zones.

Types of Asphalt We Use
Different asphalt mixes are designed to meet specific performance needs based on traffic levels, site conditions, and environmental factors. We work with five asphalt types to help ensure the right structure and strength for your project.
- Hot Mix Asphalt: A long-lasting paving and patching solution applied at 270°F to 325°F. It cools into a seamless surface that resists weather and heavy traffic.
- MC Cold Mix / Cold Patch: A temporary asphalt solution applied at colder temperatures to slow curing. Best for low-traffic areas and short-term repairs.
- Warm Mix Asphalt: Produced and installed at temperatures of 30°F to 120°F for improved workability and a longer paving season.
- Porous Asphalt: Designed for stormwater management, this mix allows water to drain through the surface into underlying layers, reducing runoff and standing water in parking areas.
- Dense-Graded Asphalt: A versatile, durable mix used across multiple pavement layers. Its tightly packed aggregate structure provides strength for a wide range of commercial applications.
What Causes Asphalt Deterioration?
The quality of your subgrade plays a large role in how long your paved surface will last, but there are other factors, too.
Other elements that contribute to asphalt deterioration include:
- Concerns about weight and the load-bearing capacity of traffic
- Inadequate water drainage systems
- Oil and gas stains
- Poor routine maintenance
- Sudden weather fluctuations

Asphalt Paving FAQs
How hot is asphalt when paving?
Asphalt is extremely hot when it is installed. It can reach 220°F to 300°F when paving.
When is it safe to drive on freshly installed pavement?
Depending on weather and other considerations, wait at least 24-48 or 72 hours. It’s essential for the asphalt to fully set and dry before driven on, or else you may see premature cracks, tire imprints, and potholes.
