Commercial Parking Lots

Parking lot construction, maintenance, sealcoating, and line painting for commercial properties across Canada.

How We Work

Parking Lots Built and Maintained to Last

Altera Construction handles commercial parking lots from the ground up — parking lot paving, grading, and drainage — and keeps them running with ongoing parking lot maintenance, sealcoating, and line painting.

Whether it's new parking lot construction or repairing an aging lot, we treat the pavement as part of the property, not a one-time job.

That covers everything from a small retail lot to a large multi-building commercial property, with the paving, drainage, and markings sized to the traffic each site actually carries.

Maintenance is scheduled around how the lot is actually used — a high-turnover retail lot needs more frequent attention to striping and sealcoating than a low-traffic office lot with the same square footage.

Commercial Parking Lot Construction

New parking lot paving starts with subgrade preparation and grading for proper drainage, followed by base and asphalt paving sized for the traffic the lot will carry, plus line painting and signage. We size the pavement structure to the vehicles actually using the lot — a delivery-heavy retail site and a low-traffic office lot don't need the same base or asphalt depth.

Layout matters as much as the paving itself — stall count, drive aisle width, and traffic flow are planned against the site's parking requirements and expected vehicle mix before any grading begins.

Parking Lot Construction

A parking lot is one of the first things visitors and customers see — keeping it built and maintained well protects both safety and first impressions.

It's also one of the more heavily used surfaces on any commercial property, which is why lots that look fine on the surface can still have drainage or base issues developing underneath — issues that show up as cracking or potholes months before they'd otherwise be visible.

Parking Lot Maintenance & Repair

Parking lot maintenance — routine sealcoating, sweeping, and inspection to catch small problems before they turn into potholes.

Parking lot repair — pothole repair, crack filling, and patching for a lot that's otherwise in good condition.

Line painting and striping — parking lot line painting, stall striping, and accessibility markings that stay visible through winter.

Commercial parking lot cleaning and sanding — seasonal upkeep that keeps a lot safe and presentable year-round.

Drainage and grading for parking lots — correcting low spots and directing water toward catch basins or trench drains so a lot doesn't develop standing water over time.

Accessibility compliance — layout and markings that meet accessibility requirements for commercial parking, including accessible stall dimensions and signage placement.

Curb and wheel stop installation — concrete curbing, bollards, and wheel stops that define traffic flow and protect building edges, landscaping, and pedestrian areas from vehicle contact.

Snow and ice management coordination — making sure pavement markings, drainage, and curb design hold up to plowing and de-icing, since winter maintenance is often harder on a lot than traffic is.

One Contractor for the Whole Lot

From commercial parking lot construction through years of parking lot maintenance and repair, working with one contractor means one point of contact instead of coordinating separate paving and maintenance crews.

We also flag pavement and drainage issues during routine maintenance visits, so small problems get addressed before they turn into a resurfacing project.

The goal is a lot that stays safe, code-compliant, and presentable year-round — not just freshly paved once and left to wear down until the next full replacement.

A Single Point of Contact for Your Parking Lot

Property managers dealing with multiple sites don't need a different paving company for construction and a different one for maintenance. Working with one commercial parking lot contractor for both means consistent quality, one service history to reference, and one call to make whether the issue is a new pothole or a full repave.

That continuity also means fewer surprises — the crew doing your sealcoating and striping already knows how the lot was built, where the drainage runs, and what's likely to need attention next.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Parking Lot Services

Everything you need to know before starting your next project with Altera Construction.

Do you handle both new parking lot construction and ongoing maintenance?

Yes — from initial grading and paving to sealcoating, striping, and repairs after the lot is in use.

How often should a commercial parking lot be sealcoated?

Most lots benefit from sealcoating every 2-3 years, depending on traffic volume and climate exposure.

Can you repaint parking lot lines and stalls?

Yes — parking lot line painting, stall striping, and accessibility markings are part of our regular maintenance services.

What's the difference between parking lot repair and resurfacing?

Repair addresses isolated potholes and cracks, while resurfacing resets the whole surface when wear is widespread — we can assess which your lot needs.

What makes Altera Construction different?

We focus specifically on commercial site work rather than general residential construction, which means our crews, equipment, and planning are built around the needs of organizations and developers.
