What We Do

Commercial Lot Work We Handle

Ground-up lots, replacements, and drainage, built on properly prepped clay sub-grade and reinforced for the loads.

New Parking Lots

Ground-up concrete lots for retail, office, industrial, and multifamily built to the civil plans.

Lot Replacement

Tear-out of failed asphalt or concrete and a full re-pour on a corrected, compacted base.

Drive Aisles & Approaches

Entrances, drive lanes, and right-of-way approaches poured for turning trucks and daily volume.

ADA Stalls & Drainage

Accessible stalls and ramps to Title 24, plus curb, gutter, and valley gutters that move water to the inlets.

How It Works

How We Build Your Lot

The same disciplined process on every commercial pour, coordinated with your GC, engineer, and inspector.

Civil Plans & Site Walk

We review the site or civil plans, check soil and drainage, and confirm loads and the stall layout.

Permits & Demo

We pull permits, then remove and haul off failed asphalt or concrete on replacements.

Base, Grade & Rebar

We compact base to 95% Proctor over the clay sub-grade, set grades to the inlets, and place a rebar mat.

Pour, Joint & Stripe

We pour and broom finish, cut control joints on schedule, then stripe and add ADA stalls and wheel stops.

Materials & Standards

A Lot That Outlasts the Asphalt Next Door

Asphalt softens and ruts in the San Diego sun and needs constant sealing and patching. A properly built concrete lot carries the same traffic for decades. Our spec:

  • Slab thickness6 inches for standard areas; 8 inches at entrances, truck routes, and dumpster aprons.
  • Reinforcement#4 rebar mat on chairs with doweled construction joints for load transfer.
  • BaseCompacted class II road base over prepped expansive-clay sub-grade to prevent heaving.
  • DrainageGrades set to the inlets with curb, gutter, or valley gutters to move water off the lot.
  • ADAAccessible stalls, access aisles, and ramps with detectable-warning pads to Title 24.
Pricing & Concerns

Straight Answers on Cost and Scope

Ranges reflect typical San Diego County commercial work. Your firm number comes from a site walk and a set of plans.

What will this cost?

Reinforced commercial flatwork and lots run about $10 to $14 per square foot; industrial floors $13 to $18; tilt-up panels $14 to $32 per square foot of panel. These are San Diego County ranges. Slab thickness, PSI, reinforcement, and access drive the number. We price from your plans and a site walk.

How long does it take?

Commercial timelines depend on size and phasing. We can place large pours in a day, then concrete needs 7 days before traffic and 28 days for full strength. We give you a realistic sequence and dates with the quote.

Do you pull commercial permits?

Yes. As a CSLB-licensed contractor (#1026938) we pull permits through the City of Poway or the County of San Diego and coordinate the sub-grade, reinforcement, and pre-pour inspections.

Can you keep us open during work?

Usually. We phase the work so a lot stays partly open or a building keeps operating from another area, and we schedule around your hours to limit downtime.

Common Questions

Commercial Parking Lots FAQ

Is a concrete parking lot better than asphalt in San Diego?
For most commercial sites, yes. Asphalt softens and ruts in the sun and needs sealing and patching on a short cycle. A concrete lot costs more up front but carries the same traffic for 30-plus years with minimal maintenance.
How much does a concrete parking lot cost?
A 6-inch, rebar-reinforced concrete lot typically runs $10 to $14 per square foot installed. Heavy-truck zones and dumpster pads run higher, and tear-out of existing asphalt is quoted separately.
Do you handle ADA stalls and code?
Yes. We build ADA-compliant accessible stalls, access aisles, and ramps with detectable-warning pads to California Title 24, and pull the permits.
Can you pour our lot in phases so we stay open?
Yes. We build and replace lots in sections so part of the parking stays open, planned around your busiest hours.
How thick should a commercial lot slab be?
Standard areas are usually 6 inches over a compacted base; drive aisles, entrances, and dumpster aprons are thickened to 8 inches or more.
How do you handle clay soil under the lot?
We compact the sub-grade to 95% Proctor and import base rock where needed so the expansive clay does not heave and crack the slab.
