Parking Lot Paving in Detroit: what to expect
Parking lot paving in Detroit has to handle plows, delivery trucks, road salt and spring thaw, and drainage is where most lots fail. Low spots hold water, catch basins settle, and edges break up. Owners across Detroit, Southfield, Troy and Warren usually face a choice between targeted repairs, a mill and overlay, or full reconstruction.
A proper job starts with a condition survey and a look at how water leaves the site. Reconstruction rebuilds the base and pavement section; a mill and overlay grinds off the worn top and paves a new layer while keeping curb heights and drainage. Catch basins, curbs and accessible parking spaces are often updated at the same time, and the lot is restriped afterward. Work is phased so the business can stay open.
In Detroit, the DWSD drainage charge is based on hard surfaces, and nonresidential owners can earn credits for measures such as detention or pervious pavement. See parking lot striping and commercial paving, or browse all parking lot paving contractors.

Permits and licensing in Michigan
New lots and reconstruction projects can require site plan approval, stormwater review and building or grading permits, and new drive approaches need a right-of-way permit. In Detroit, check with BSEED and the DPW City Engineering Division; elsewhere, the local building department. Earth changes that disturb one acre or more, or that are within 500 feet of a lake or stream, generally need a Part 91 soil erosion permit. Accessible parking must follow the ADA and Michigan barrier-free rules, so confirm the required count and layout with the building department. Michigan law requires notice to MISS DIG 811 at least three business days before excavating, so confirm who calls it before any base is dug out.
Michigan's Maintenance & Alteration Contractor license lists trades such as Concrete and Excavation but no separate asphalt paving trade, so ask which LARA license the company holds, if any, and check it on the LARA lookup. Either way, confirm a local business address, proof of insurance and references before you pay.
