Wheeling, WV commercial guide

Commercial paving should support the site's real traffic and operations.

A complete scope coordinates pavement structure, drainage, access, loading, phasing, markings, and restoration around how the property actually operates.

Planning sequence

Four areas to define clearly

01

Measure and document

Map the project area, entrances, docks, drains, utilities, damage, slopes, traffic, loading, and operational restrictions.

02

Evaluate pavement and base

Ask what investigation supports full-depth reconstruction, selective base repair, milling, overlay, or another treatment.

03

Plan drainage and phasing

Confirm elevations, runoff, tie-ins, accessible routes, traffic control, business access, cure or cooling time, and reopening stages.

04

Specify and close out

The proposal should define materials, thickness, compaction, joints, markings, cleanup, warranties, exclusions, and final documentation.
