PARKING LOTS
Your parking lot is the first thing customers drive on. A crumbling asphalt lot sends the wrong message — and costs you in repairs every few years. Concrete lasts 30+ years and holds up to the Kansas heat without rutting or patching.
What We Do
BUILT FOR
DAILY TRAFFIC
We handle complete parking lot installations — new construction and full replacements. From site grading and base prep to final pour and line striping coordination, we manage the concrete side of the project start to finish.
Whether it's a small commercial lot, a church parking area, or a multi-unit residential property, we engineer the slab thickness, joint layout, and drainage for the specific traffic load you're dealing with.
- New lot installation — full excavation, grading, base compaction, and pour on virgin ground
- Asphalt-to-concrete conversion — remove old asphalt, regrade, and pour concrete that won't need resurfacing in 5 years
- Drainage engineering — proper slope and channel drains so water routes off the lot instead of sitting and undermining the base
- ADA-compliant design — proper slopes, curb cuts, and accessible stall placement per code
- Curbs & wheel stops — poured concrete curbing and wheel stops placed and anchored during the same project
Why Concrete Wins
CONCRETE VS. ASPHALT
Asphalt averages 15–20 years with regular sealing and patching. Concrete lasts twice as long with virtually no maintenance.
Asphalt requires sealing every 3–5 years. Concrete needs none — no added cost, no downtime, no smell.
Asphalt softens and ruts in extreme heat. Concrete stays rigid regardless of surface temperature.
Concrete's lighter surface reflects heat, reducing the urban heat island effect and keeping your lot cooler for customers and vehicles.
Why Choose Optimus
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
Commercial parking lots are a significant investment. You need a properly licensed, insured contractor — not a crew that disappears after the pour if something shifts in year two.
Pooling water is the #1 cause of lot failure. We engineer slope, crown, and drainage channels into the design before we pour — not as an afterthought.
We spec thickness and reinforcement for your actual traffic — delivery trucks, heavy vehicles, and high-cycle commercial use all require more than a standard residential pour.
We handle proper cross-slope on accessible stalls, curb cuts, and placement to keep your lot compliant. You don't need a separate contractor for the ADA work.
We price by square foot with everything included — excavation, base prep, reinforcement, pour, control joints, edging. One number in writing before anything gets dug up.
Parking lot pours require coordination and speed. We use our own experienced crew — not subs — so every part of the job runs on the same standard.
How It Works
OUR PROCESS
We walk the site, measure the footprint, assess existing conditions and drainage, and give you a written quote with thickness and reinforcement specified.
Existing surface removed, subgrade excavated, graded for drainage, and compacted. Base aggregate placed and compacted to depth before forming begins.
Forms set to grade. Rebar placed per load spec. Concrete poured in sections, screeded, and broom finished for traction. Control joints tooled or sawed.
Curing compound applied. Full open-to-traffic timeline given at hand-off. We coordinate timing with any line striping you have scheduled separately.
