Asphalt Contractor Fort Lauderdale

Atlantic Southern Paving is a premier asphalt contractor Fort Lauderdale that’s been in business since 1992. We provide full-service asphalt and concrete contracting to South Florida and beyond. 

When new properties are being built and new businesses established, asphalt is probably one of the last things that a person thinks about. Atlantic Southern Paving is on a mission to change this. We know that proper paving can make or break a new property. We have worked on a variety of commercial and residential projects from parking lots in large strip malls and schools to sprawling HOA community planning and maintenance. 

So Why is Asphalt So Important?

If you think about it, your asphalt is usually the first thing that a client or prospective resident interacts with. Many people will avoid certain stores and shopping centers if they have cramped, confusing, or unkempt parking lots. And a new resident is likely to look elsewhere if a community has uneven or unsightly streets. Asphalt is the first opportunity for your establishment to put its best foot forward. 

There are also legal implications when dealing with bad asphalt. Of course, there is the threat of an accident based lawsuit if your pavement causes a fall or other injury. You also need to think about your asphalt striping. Often taken for granted by motorists, the paint on your asphalt does a tremendous job of keeping your parking lot safe. It denotes the flow and direction of traffic, signals where it is safe for pedestrians to cross, where vehicles can safely park, and the location of fire lanes. On top of all this, parking lot striping is a big factor in the ADA compliance of your premises. This means that your striping adheres to the requirements set forth by the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and you can properly serve all members of your community. 

Atlantica Southern Paving makes sure to adhere to strict guidelines and best industry practices to ensure the safest possible parking lot surrounds your property. 

 

 Why Is Sealcoating So Important?

Sealcoating is the single best choice you can make to extend the lifespan of your asphalt and reduce maintenance costs. An initial seal coat within a year of your install is highly recommended to preserve the pristine condition of your new pavement. A seal coat improves both the texture and appearance of asphalt, but most importantly they act as a shield. UV, oil, and gas can all slowly eat away at your asphalt’s integrity over time if left uncoated. Water can also make its way into and expand unsealed cracks. 

After an initial seal coat, Atlantic Southern Paving can work with you to come up with a cost-effective seal coating maintenance plan. With seal coating upkeep, you can prevent any major repairs or overhauls of your asphalt for many years to come.
