Oyster Bay Parking Lot Paving - DuMor Construction Inc.

A customer of 20-plus years recently asked us to see if we could do a parking lot update in Plainview, NY (located in Oyster Bay).

This client reached out to us after dealing with some challenging parking lot issues, asking us to make some more parking spaces in his parking lot. The area in which he wanted more parking spots to be added was in a space where a large brick planter was centralized. He asked us to come take a look.

We arrived the next day as we were already working in the area. We determined that if we removed a portion of the planter, we could add in 3 more parking stalls. The brick wall of the planter was already beginning to show signs of age so it seemed to be a good idea, to which the client agreed.

We scheduled to do the parking lot repair the next Wednesday. The wall was cut back and repairs to it were made. After a new concrete curb and sidewalk slab were poured, we installed the recycled crushed concrete base blend, graded it and compacted it.

At this point, the client thought that rather than putting an asphalt patch in, perhaps we should do a parking lot paving project. We have been maintaining this small lot by crack filling and sealcoating for 15 years. We agreed that this was a good idea and prepped the parking area for new asphalt, giving the client a price to cover the brick planter with a stucco cement mixture. He agreed to this and we made a new slab of concrete flush with the new pavement, creating a ramp for deliveries, which greatly benefited his business.

Needless to say, the owner was thrilled and said, “I should have done this years ago and will have DuMOR pave the other lot next year.

Thank you for working with us again!

We recently completed an asphalt milling and parking lot paving project in Woodbury, which is located in the town of Oyster Bay, Long Island NY.

The local business owner had been having drainage issues with his parking lot for the past couple of years. This year he was adamant that he would get this issue taken care of before the puddles and potholes got any further out of hand. After checking with a few other local business owners and doing some online research, they gave us a call to request an onsite inspection.

Upon inspection we concurred that the business owner definately needed the get the parkling lot re-paved. Our estimator explained how the most cost effective approach would be to mill down the top layer of asphalt and then re-pave (which provided a significant cost savings version a complete rip out and replace project).

The Dumore crew was able to get over to the commercial property that Saturday to mill the affected area of the parking lot. Then the paving crew came in on Monday to lay down the new asphalt. By the end of day Tuesday, we had completed the job and the parking lot was back open for business.

Here is what the owner had to say about Dumor Construction, “Thanks very much to you and your staff for a job well done. We are very pleased with the result of the parking lot repaving as well as the professionalism and efficiency of your organization throughout the process. We will certainly recommend your company whenever the opportunity arises.”

Not long ago we got a call from a past client that wanted to get all of their Oyster Bay asphalt repairs and maintenance done over the summer. They had three lots that needed attention. The first one required a saw cut patch and replace method on a big pothole near the center of the lot. The other two just needed some basic crack sealing.

The parking lot repairs and maintenance were underway

The crew arrived at the Oster Bay location. The crew started the saw cut in the asphalt where the pothole was located. The crew cut a complete square around the pothole and the cut was several inches from the edge of the pothole. The crew removed all the debris from the area that was cut, then they removed all the loose sand and debris with a broom, so the cut was completely free of all debris. The crew then applied fresh asphalt into the hole that was cut. The fresh asphalt was spread evenly into the hole, then the crew packed the asphalt firmly into the hole.

The crew returned the following day and began cleaning the other two parking lots. The crew needed to clean the entire parking lot thoroughly so they could remove any oil, chemicals, dirt, and debris. The crew then began checking each of the cracks to make sure that no liquids entered the sub base of the asphalt, which there was none, then they cleaned out each crack to remove all debris. Once they had the cracks cleaned they began filling each crack with fresh asphalt, then they packed the asphalt firmly into each crack. Once all the cracks were filled in that parking lot they started on the next parking lot.

The crew did the same steps with this parking lot. The crew cleaned the parking lot thoroughly from all debris, then they cleaned and inspected each crack. They filled each crack with fresh asphalt, then they packed the asphalt firmly into the cracks, so no liquids would enter the crack again. The crew was able to have all of the parking lot repairs and maintenance performed within two and a half days.

The crew always made sure that they left the job site cleaner than when they arrived and every repair was done successfully. Our crew knows that we have a reputation to uphold as we have been called the number one Oyster Bay asphalt contractor and we are proud to be named that by our past and present customers. There is no job that our crew is asked to do that they don’t give it their all. Our crew looks forward to knowing they did an outstanding job!
