Hear from Our Customers
You get a parking lot that doesn’t embarrass your business. No more apologizing for potholes or worrying about liability from uneven surfaces.
Professional commercial paving means your asphalt can handle 20-30 years of Tennessee weather without constant repairs. You’re investing in fewer headaches, better customer impressions, and real protection for your property value.
The difference shows immediately. Smooth surfaces that drain properly. Clean lines that guide traffic safely. A professional appearance that tells customers you care about details.
Tristar Paving has been serving Wilson County and the Nashville area for over five decades. We’re veteran-owned, which means we understand the value of doing things right the first time.
Located right here in Wilson County, we know how Tennessee’s climate affects asphalt. We’ve seen what works and what fails after our hot summers and freeze-thaw cycles.
You’re not dealing with a fly-by-night operation. We’re a local company that has to face our neighbors if something goes wrong.
First, we evaluate your property’s drainage, soil stability, and traffic patterns. No guessing – we assess what your specific site needs to perform long-term.
Next comes proper base preparation. This is where most cheap jobs fail. We excavate to the right depth, install proper drainage, and compact the base until it’s rock-solid.
Then we apply asphalt in carefully controlled lifts, compacting each layer to eliminate air pockets that cause premature failure. The final step is proper curing time – no rushing to reopen too early.

In Eagleville’s business district, proper drainage is critical. Tennessee’s rainfall patterns can destroy poorly designed parking lots in just a few years. We engineer drainage that actually works with local conditions.
ADA compliance comes standard – no extra charges for meeting accessibility requirements. We know the regulations and build them into every project from the start.
Most commercial parking lots take 3-5 days from start to finish, depending on size and weather conditions. The timeline includes one day for excavation and base preparation, one day for asphalt installation, and 24-48 hours for proper curing.
Weather plays a big role in scheduling. Asphalt can’t be installed in wet conditions or when temperatures drop below 50°F. We’ll reschedule rather than compromise quality.
You can typically allow light traffic after 24 hours, but heavy trucks should wait 3-5 days. Rushing this step can cause permanent damage to your new pavement.
The difference is in the base preparation and material quality. Cheap jobs skip proper excavation, use thin asphalt layers, and don’t address drainage issues.
Professional paving starts with proper site evaluation and base preparation. We excavate to the right depth, install drainage where needed, and use adequate asphalt thickness for your traffic load.
The cost difference upfront is significant, but professional paving lasts 20-30 years while cheap jobs often fail within 5-7 years. You’re either paying now or paying much more later.
Commercial paving typically costs $3-7 per square foot, depending on site conditions, asphalt thickness, and drainage requirements. Simple overlay projects cost less than full-depth reconstruction.
The biggest cost variables are excavation depth and base material requirements. Sites with poor drainage or unstable soil require more extensive preparation work.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs. No surprises or change orders unless you request additional work during the project.
New asphalt should be seal coated 6-12 months after installation, then every 2-3 years depending on traffic volume. Seal coating extends asphalt life by 3-4 times compared to unmaintained surfaces.
Tennessee’s UV exposure and temperature swings make regular seal coating especially important. Without protection, asphalt oxidizes and becomes brittle, leading to cracking and water infiltration.
The best time for seal coating is late spring or early fall when temperatures are moderate and rain is less frequent. Seal coating needs 24 hours of dry weather to cure properly.
Yes, we regularly schedule work during off-hours, weekends, or in phases to keep your business operational. Most commercial projects can be designed to maintain customer access throughout construction.
For businesses that can’t close completely, we often work in sections. We’ll complete half the parking lot while customers use the other half, then switch areas.
Communication is key to minimizing disruption. We coordinate with you throughout the project to ensure customers and employees always have safe access to your facility.
All commercial paving work comes with a comprehensive one-year warranty covering materials and workmanship. This includes any settling, cracking, or drainage issues that develop under normal use conditions.
The warranty covers repair or replacement of defective work at no charge to you. We stand behind our installation because we use proper techniques and quality materials.
Warranty claims are rare when paving is done correctly from the start. But if issues do arise, we handle them promptly without arguing about coverage or charging extra fees.
