Planning a parking lot or commercial paving project? Let's talk about the property. Get a Free Estimate
A commercial lot has to handle customer parking, deliveries, employee traffic, drainage and accessible parking every day, and it has to do it without closing the business for longer than necessary. Athens Asphalt Paving works with business owners, property managers, churches, schools and developers on parking lots, drive lanes and access areas throughout Athens and surrounding East Texas communities.
Whether you are paving a new lot or bringing an aging one back into shape, we start with how the property operates: where vehicles enter and turn, where trucks load, where water collects and what the existing pavement is telling us. That keeps the project focused on preparation, pavement and access rather than a generic square-footage price.

A commercial paving project usually involves several connected parts of the property.
Layout, striping plan, traffic flow, accessible spaces and the condition of the existing surface all shape how a parking lot is paved.
Entrances, delivery routes and drive lanes need to handle turning trucks and steady traffic without breaking up at the edges.
Older commercial pavement may need patching, milling, resurfacing or full reconstruction depending on how far the deterioration has gone.
Standing water shortens the life of any lot. We look at grade and drainage before paving so water leaves the surface instead of sitting on it.
| Service | Estimated Cost | Average |
|---|---|---|
| Small parking area | $8,000–$20,000 | $14,000 |
| Medium commercial paving project | $20,000–$50,000 | $35,000 |
| Large commercial paving project | $50,000–$100,000+ | $75,000 |
These are general planning ranges only. Commercial pricing depends on square footage, pavement thickness, base work, grading, drainage, access, traffic requirements and site conditions.

We plan the work around your hours and traffic so the property stays as usable as possible while the project is under way.
Owners and property managers get a plain-language explanation of the preparation, paving and maintenance involved, so decisions are easy to explain to partners and boards.
We serve commercial properties in Athens and across East Texas, from small storefront lots to larger multi-tenant properties.
