Hear from Our Customers
You’re not just buying asphalt. You’re buying fewer liability headaches, better customer impressions, and years without having to think about your parking lot again.
A well-paved surface does the work for you. Customers park easily, employees walk safely, and your property value stays strong. No more apologizing for potholes or worrying about someone twisting an ankle.
That’s what happens when the job gets done right the first time. Your pavement becomes an asset, not a problem you’re constantly managing.
TriStar Paving LLC has been handling commercial projects across Wilson County and the greater Nashville area for over five decades. As a veteran-owned company, we understand the value of doing things right the first time.
We know Greenvale’s climate patterns, soil conditions, and local regulations. This isn’t guesswork – it’s experience applied to your specific situation.
When you work with TriStar, you’re working with people who’ve seen every type of commercial paving challenge Tennessee can throw at a project. We’ve earned our reputation by delivering results that last.
First, we assess your site and discuss your specific needs. No generic proposals – we evaluate drainage, traffic patterns, and soil conditions specific to your property.
Next comes proper preparation. We handle excavation, grading, and base installation using methods proven to work in Tennessee’s climate. The foundation determines how long your pavement lasts.
Finally, we apply premium asphalt using professional-grade equipment, then finish with proper compaction and curing. You get a surface engineered for your traffic load, not just whatever’s cheapest.
The process takes time because shortcuts create problems later. You’ll know exactly what to expect and when.

We handle complete parking lot construction, resurfacing, and repair work. We manage everything from initial site preparation through final striping and ADA compliance markings.
Tennessee businesses need surfaces that handle heavy traffic, seasonal weather changes, and meet accessibility standards. We use materials and techniques specifically chosen for local conditions.
You get proper drainage systems, durable base construction, and professional-grade asphalt application. We also handle line striping, signage installation, and any concrete work needed for curbs or walkways. The result is a complete, code-compliant parking area that serves your business for decades.
Properly installed commercial asphalt in Greenvale typically lasts 20-25 years with appropriate maintenance. The lifespan depends on several factors: traffic load, base preparation quality, and regular upkeep.
Tennessee’s climate presents specific challenges – freeze-thaw cycles, heavy rains, and temperature fluctuations. Quality installation accounts for these conditions with proper drainage and base construction.
Regular maintenance like crack sealing and sealcoating every 3-5 years significantly extends pavement life. We design surfaces for your specific traffic patterns and provide maintenance guidance to maximize your investment.
ADA compliance ensures your parking lot is accessible to people with disabilities. This includes specific requirements for handicapped parking spaces, access aisles, and pathway grades.
You need designated accessible spaces (typically 1 per 25 regular spaces), proper signage, and access routes to building entrances. Slopes can’t exceed certain gradients, and surfaces must be stable and slip-resistant.
Non-compliance creates legal liability and excludes potential customers. We handle all ADA requirements during installation, ensuring your parking lot meets federal accessibility standards from day one.
Commercial paving costs vary based on size, site conditions, and project complexity. Factors include excavation needs, base thickness requirements, drainage considerations, and accessibility features.
A basic parking lot runs $3-7 per square foot, but complex sites with drainage issues or extensive preparation cost more. The investment pays back through reduced liability, improved property value, and decades of reliable service.
We provide detailed estimates based on site evaluation, not generic square footage pricing. You’ll understand exactly what you’re paying for and why each element is necessary for long-term performance.
Sometimes, but it depends on the existing surface condition. If the base is stable and drainage is adequate, overlay installation can be cost-effective. However, severely damaged or improperly installed original pavement needs complete replacement.
Overlays work best when existing asphalt has minor surface issues but solid structural integrity. Problem areas like large cracks, settling, or drainage issues must be addressed first.
We evaluate each situation individually. We’ll recommend overlay when appropriate or explain why full replacement provides better long-term value. You get honest assessment based on what actually works, not what’s easiest to sell.
Asphalt costs less initially and handles Tennessee’s freeze-thaw cycles better than concrete. It’s easier to repair and maintains better traction in wet conditions. Most commercial properties choose asphalt for cost-effectiveness and performance.
Concrete lasts longer and handles extremely heavy loads better, but costs significantly more upfront. It’s harder to repair and can crack from ground movement that asphalt would flex through.
For most Greenvale businesses, asphalt provides the best balance of durability, cost, and maintenance requirements. We help you choose based on your specific traffic patterns, budget, and long-term plans.
Timeline depends on project size and complexity. A typical small business parking lot takes 3-5 days from start to finish. Larger projects or those requiring extensive site preparation take longer.
Weather affects scheduling – you can’t pave in rain or when temperatures are too low. We plan around Tennessee’s weather patterns and communicate any necessary delays clearly.
Most businesses can maintain operations during installation with proper planning. We coordinate work phases to minimize disruption, often completing sections so you maintain customer access throughout the project.
