Full-Service Asphalt Paving Solutions
As a full-service paving contractor, we manage every aspect of commercial asphalt work. From new parking lot construction to asphalt maintenance and pavement resurfacing, we’re here to help your business in Northern Virginia.
At Brother’s Paving, our team utilizes industry-leading techniques and high-quality materials to deliver lasting asphalt paving results.
New Construction Asphalt Installation
We specialize in the installation of new asphalt surfaces for:
- Commercial parking lots
- Private access roads
- Loading zones
- Municipal and institutional properties
- And more
Our process begins with expert subgrade preparation and the installation of a proper drainage system. This ensures the pavement meets your property’s traffic demands, climate exposure, and long-term goals.
Asphalt Surface Restoration: Milling & Resurfacing
If your existing asphalt surface is worn but the underlying structure remains sound, milling and resurfacing provides a cost-effective solution. We can remove the damaged surface layer using a commercial-grade milling machine and then install a new layer of asphalt.
This process restores the appearance and functionality of your pavement without requiring full reconstruction, making it ideal for parking lots, roads, and service drives. Resurfacing adds curb appeal, extends pavement life, and is a budget-friendly alternative to full-depth reclamation.
Full Depth Reclamation & Repaving
When both the surface and underlying layers of asphalt have deteriorated, full depth reclamation is often the most effective solution. This process involves pulverizing the existing pavement and base materials, then rebuilding the pavement from the base up, including grading, soil stabilization, and repaving.
Full depth reclamation is typically recommended when there are signs of widespread base failure, significant structural cracking, or drainage issues. These issues cannot be fixed with asphalt repairs alone.
If you believe your parking lot, access road, or other asphalt surface in Northern Virginia requires repaving, contact Brothers Paving.
Commercial Parking Lot Expansions & Layout Adjustments
As business operations grow, existing paved areas may need to be reconfigured or expanded to meet increased demand. Our team handles commercial parking lot expansion projects that involve integrating new pavement with older surfaces while maintaining proper drainage and elevation alignment.
We also help adjust layouts to improve traffic flow, accommodate loading zones, or support ADA-compliant design requirements. When expanding a lot, we account for grading changes, subsurface conditions, and structural transitions between new and existing asphalt.
If the scope includes compliance features such as accessible parking stalls, signage, or aisle widths, we can coordinate with relevant guidelines. Learn more about ADA parking requirements and layout compliance.
Our Proven Asphalt Paving Process
Every commercial paving project we complete follows a structured process to ensure consistency, safety, and compliance with local specifications. From the initial assessment through final striping, our expert asphalt paving contractors at Brothers Paving prioritize long-term performance and functional design.
Project Evaluation and Site Planning
The process begins with a thorough evaluation of the existing site conditions. This may include visual inspections, elevation assessments, and core testing when needed. Our team reviews drainage performance, traffic patterns, and structural integrity to develop a paving plan that matches your needs.
Grading, Drainage, and Base Work
Before asphalt is installed, the site must be properly prepared. This includes grading to establish the correct slope and installing any required drainage infrastructure, such as catch basins or swales. A well-compacted base layer is critical for supporting heavy loads and preventing early pavement failure.
Asphalt Installation
Once the foundation is in place, hot mix asphalt is installed using paving equipment suited to the site’s size and specifications. The thickness of the asphalt is determined based on expected vehicle types and usage. Our crew installs asphalt with attention to smoothness, slope, and compaction quality.
Rolling and Surface Finishing
After the asphalt is laid, it is compacted with rollers to eliminate air pockets and improve surface uniformity. Proper rolling helps reduce the risk of early cracking and supports even wear over time.
Final Details and Compliance Features
The last step includes applying pavement markings, signage, and accessibility features to meet regulatory and operational requirements. This may involve pavement striping, ADA stall markings, and custom traffic symbols, depending on the site layout.
Common Causes of Pavement Failure

Several factors can contribute to premature deterioration in asphalt surfaces. Understanding the root causes can help with planning timely repairs and ongoing maintenance.
Common causes of asphalt failure include:
- Weak or Insufficient Subgrade
A poorly compacted or undersized subgrade cannot support the surface, leading to cracks, depressions, or structural failure.
- Inadequate Drainage Systems
Standing water can weaken asphalt over time. Without proper slope and drainage structures, water infiltrates the base layer and causes long-term damage.
- Vehicle Fluids and Chemical Spills
Oil, fuel, and other chemicals can break down the asphalt binder, softening the surface and creating weak spots.
- Weather Conditions and Freeze-Thaw Cycles
Repeated expansion and contraction from temperature swings can cause cracks and joint failures. This is especially common in regions with cold winters.
- Heavy Vehicle Loads and Repetitive Traffic Stress
Pavement exposed to constant weight, such as trucks and service vehicles, is more prone to rutting and fatigue cracking.
- Lack of Preventive Maintenance
Skipping routine maintenance like crack sealing, patching, or sealcoating can accelerate wear and shorten pavement lifespan.

Why Asphalt Is the Right Choice for Your Property
Asphalt is one of the most commonly used paving materials in commercial construction because of its versatility, durability, and cost efficiency. It performs well in a variety of environments and supports both light and heavy vehicle traffic when properly designed and maintained.
Key benefits of commercial asphalt paving in Northern Virginia include:
- Cost-Effective and Long-Lasting
Asphalt installation typically involves a lower upfront cost than concrete. When maintained on a proper schedule, it can last well over a decade under typical commercial usage.
- Faster Installation and Downtime Recovery
Asphalt can be installed and ready for traffic in a relatively short time. This makes it a practical option for businesses that need to minimize disruptions during construction.
- Recyclable and Environmentally Friendly
Asphalt is 100% recyclable. Materials removed during resurfacing or reconstruction can be processed and reused in future paving projects.
- Improved Curb Appeal
A smooth, well-striped asphalt surface contributes to the overall appearance and organization of a property, which can support branding, traffic management, and customer experience.
Sealcoating is another way to protect and enhance asphalt surfaces. While not a structural fix, it helps slow the effects of oxidation from sunlight and environmental exposure. When performed on a regular schedule, sealcoating can help extend the life of the pavement.
How to Maximize the Life of Your Asphalt
Routine maintenance and early intervention can prevent small issues from becoming major repairs. Below are best practices for extending the usable life of your commercial asphalt surface:
- Schedule annual inspections to assess surface condition and identify early signs of failure
- Schedule crack sealing to prevent water infiltration through joints and surface cracks
- Apply sealcoat every 2 to 4 years depending on traffic and exposure
- Maintain drainage features to ensure water is redirected away from the pavement
- Keep surfaces free of trash, oil stains, and debris that could trap moisture or damage the binder

Asphalt Paving FAQs
What’s the difference between resurfacing and repaving?
Resurfacing involves removing and replacing the top layer of asphalt, while repaving typically includes full-depth reconstruction of both the surface and base.
How long does asphalt paving last?
Most commercial asphalt surfaces last 15 to 20 years or more when properly maintained. Factors such as traffic load, drainage, and climate can influence this timeline.
What causes asphalt damage?
Common causes include water infiltration, ultraviolet exposure, chemical spills, freeze-thaw cycles, and heavy traffic loads.
How do I know if I need resurfacing or full replacement?
Minor surface wear and shallow cracking may be addressed with resurfacing. More advanced issues like base failure, soft spots, or drainage problems may require full-depth reconstruction.
When is the best time of year for paving?
Asphalt paving is generally performed during spring, summer, and early fall when temperatures are consistently above 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Warmer weather allows proper curing and compaction.
