Commercial Paving Services
The first impression most visitors will have of your business, church, or other facility is of the parking lot. A run-down, faded lot with cracks, potholes, and damaged striping paints a picture of neglect that can lead to a bad impression that sticks in your guests’ minds.
Whether you’re starting from scratch or need an existing lot repaired, resurfaced, or replaced, look no further than Jack Buckland Paving. Our team is dedicated to creating a top-quality parking surface that will last for years with proper maintenance. From regular-duty paving for customer cars and light-duty trucks to heavy-duty paving for lots that handle heavy commercial traffic, we have you covered!
If you’re installing a new parking lot or your existing parking lot needs a refresh, Jack Buckland Paving is here for you. With our top-of-the-line PPG and Hotline paints, we can provide clear, precise parking lot striping, ADA markings, stop lines, and other lot markings that will last and give clear guidance to drivers and pedestrians.
Lot striping is included with new parking lot projects and is the final step in the sealcoating process for lots. Most small-to-medium restriping projects can be completed in a day, while larger lots may take longer.
If your lot is in good shape but needs fresh striping, we can also provide parking lot striping as a standalone service. We can also install certain types of lot signage, including ADA parking signs and traffic-control signage.
Standard paving is fine for light-duty vehicles and medium-duty delivery trucks. But if your paving will need to withstand the increased load of heavy-duty traffic – big rigs, earthmoving equipment, tractors, etc. – you’ll need a more robust product.
For heavy-duty applications, Jack Buckland Paving provides customers with a more substantial base of at least 6” of crusher run and then tops that with a double layer of asphalt. On the bottom, we use a 2″ layer of binder – an asphalt product with larger aggregate (gravel) for greater strength. Then, we apply a 2″ layer of topping, the standard asphalt that provides the smoothest possible surface.
Whether your guests prefer a little one-on-one, the “pop” of a well-struck tennis ball, or the sheer exhilaration of a pickleball match, we can get you ready to become your area’s #1 sporting destination.
Our sports courts offer the same 1-year warranty as our vehicle-bearing paving products. Without the load of heavy vehicles rolling across it, you can expect your properly-maintained basketball, tennis, pickleball, or other sports court to provide years of fun and competition.
Is your new parking lot nearing the end of its second year? Has the normal wear and tear of daily use got your asphalt looking faded and dirty? Are cracks and voids beginning to show up? It’s time for a sealcoat.
Sealcoating is a protective product that must be regularly applied to any asphalt surface. It protects underlying asphalt and restores the surface’s original color, fills voids and small cracks, and creates an attractive, smooth finish. Once we’ve finished applying the sealcoat, we’ll restripe your lot or drive to get it ready for use.
Need to smooth out your existing paving, but sealcoating or resurfacing isn’t in the budget? Jack Buckland Paving provides reliable crack-fill solutions to repair the damage and slow future deterioration of your asphalt.
First, we take the time to clean out all the cracks and damaged areas, removing dirt, loose asphalt, weeds, or other debris. Then, we use a rubberized crack-fill product, heated to more than 500 degrees, to fill cracks and damage with a flexible but resilient patch.
If your commercial paving is significantly worn or damaged, it may be time for a resurfacing. We’ll clean your existing asphalt, fill any cracks and voids, and lay an entirely new layer over the top. Like a new paving project, your new asphalt will be compacted, edge-tamped, and backfilled to ensure maximum strength and durability.
Ready to Provide Your Team and Your Customers With a Clean, Safe, and Attractive Parking Lot, Sports Court, Walkway, or Other Paving Project?
Our paving projects go down over a base layer of at least 4″ of crusher run to ensure a solid foundation that allows your paved surface to weather the ravages of time while remaining stable, sturdy, and dependable.
A Sterilized Base
Here in Georgia, weeds and unwanted growth seem to flourish in even just a few grains of dirt. Before laying down asphalt, we thoroughly sterilize the ground to reduce the likelihood of plant life damaging your new paving.
A Razor-Straight Edge
You’ve seen it before: a paved surface with a ragged, uneven, crumbling edge. That’s never a good look. When we’re finished rolling out your new asphalt, we hand-tamp the edges and backfill to produce a crisp, clean edge that’s on-grade with the surrounding landscape. Never worry about an errant tire breaking your paving’s edge.
A Clean Finished Product
When our team is finished with your job, the cleanup has been managed as well. Our goal with every job is to leave the site looking as good as or better than when we arrived. No slag piles, garbage, abandoned stakes or ribbon, or any other refuse will ever be left for you to deal with.

Asphalt concrete (commonly called asphalt, blacktop, tarmac, or pavement) is a composite product made up of a mineral aggregate, such as gravel, crushed stone, or sand, bound together with a dense, black petroleum product known as bitumen or tar. The bitumen is heated past its melting point, and the aggregate is mixed in to create a consistent mixture.
For most commercial paving projects, asphalt is the obvious choice:
For larger projects, asphalt offers noticeable savings over concrete or other surfaces.
Asphalt handles the heat and scorching sun of Georgia summers more effectively than concrete.
Asphalt goes down quickly and is ready for use within 1-2 days of completion.
Asphalt repairs are easier and less expensive than concrete repairs.
When properly maintained and treated with a regular sealcoating application, asphalt surfaces can last 15-20 years.
Asphalt is more flexible than concrete and can support the heavy loads required by most commercial or industrial vehicles without cracking or buckling when laid with an adequate base and thickness.
While each job may feature slight variations in process, the general procedure for laying down asphalt is:
Grading
We use special earthmoving equipment to create a smooth base for paving correctly sloped for drainage and graded to provide consistent, eased curves and elevation changes.
Base Layer
The base layer for all Jack Buckland Paving asphalt projects comprises at least 4″ of crusher run (6” or more for heavy-duty applications). Crusher run is a stone product composed of coarse stones and fine stone particles.
Base Rolling and Packing
The base layer is then rolled and packed. During this process, the crusher run substrate is compacted, and the fine particles in the base mixture fill any voids left between the larger aggregate.
Sterilization
To deter plant life from trying to take root in or break through your paving, we apply an herbicide to the base layer to kill any existing plant life and impede future growth.
Asphalt Layer
For standard paving jobs, we lay down a thick layer of asphalt made with fine aggregate for a smooth finish. Before compacting, this layer will be greater than 2″ in thickness.
Compaction and Edge-tamping
We roll and compact the asphalt layer to ensure it’s as solid as possible. During this step, the layer is compacted to 2″ in thickness. We further hand-tamp the edges of your asphalt to give it a clean, hard edge stronger than an untamped edge.
Backfilling
We use dirt from the grading process to backfill the surrounding landscape to the same level as the paving. That way, your guests will only see a clean, laser-straight edge – and if an errant tire rolls off your asphalt, it will transition smoothly to the surrounding dirt or grass without tearing up the edge of your paving.
When properly maintained, a single application of asphalt can last for 15-20 years before it needs to be replaced or resurfaced.
