The concrete parking lot work we do

  • New lots and full replacements

    A concrete lot on open ground, or worn asphalt and broken concrete taken out and replaced, laid out for how cars and people move through it.

  • Truck routes and loading areas

    Heavier sections where delivery trucks turn, back in and unload, built on a firmer base than the stalls where your customers park their cars.

What goes into building a concrete parking lot in Wichita Falls?

Concrete parking lot building in Wichita Falls means designing and pouring concrete paving that suits your site's traffic and drainage, so you end up with a lot built around the vehicles that use it every day.

Most business owners call us when the old lot has cracked, sunk in spots or started holding water, and they want to understand what a new one involves before they commit. The price moves with the size of the lot, how much of it has to carry trucks, how much digging and base work the ground needs and whether parts must stay open while we work. The schedule turns on the weather, on curing, the wait while fresh concrete gains strength before it takes traffic, and on how many separate pours the work is split into. Your estimate lists what your job includes, line by line.

Parking lot paving from base to joints

I start every lot by asking about the traffic it will carry, the truck routes, the loading areas and any part that has to stay open, because those answers decide how we build it.

  • Checking the edges

    If the building's slab beside the lot has settled, we handle foundation raising first so the new paving meets it at the right height.

  • Digging out and packing

    We dig out and pack the subgrade, the ground the slab rests on, because a base that's only raked level settles with the dirt.

  • Forms, steel and footings

    We set forms and rebar, the steel inside that keeps cracks from spreading, and pour concrete footings for light poles or signs alongside.

  • Pouring, finishing and joints

    We pour in cooler hours, brush the top for grip and cut control joints, grooves that give cracks a planned place to go, before cracks can choose their own.

Why Wichita Falls owners call Ironset

I wrote concrete quotes for years before I ever finished a slab, and I started Ironset here in 2013 to be the one explaining every line. I'd rather spend extra time on the ground and the plan than hurry a pour you can't undo.

  • The owner walks your lot

    I come out to see every job and write the estimate myself, and our crew does the forming, pouring and finishing with me checking in along the way.

  • Your budget goes to the base first

    The base is hidden on day one, so it's the first thing people trim to save money. I'd give up a fancier finish first, because the base decides whether your lot stays flat.

  • Licensed and insured on every lot

    We're fully licensed and insured, and satisfaction guaranteed on every job is how we work. When you're ready, call (940) 298-1219 or send us the form below.

What happens after you call about a new lot?

A lot job is planned around the business that uses it, so we work out early which areas have to stay open, and parts of the lot may be poured separately to keep traffic moving.

Parking lot questions we hear most

How much does a concrete parking lot cost in Wichita Falls?

There's no set price for a concrete lot, and I won't give you a number until I've seen the site. The biggest swings come from how much of the lot is built for trucks rather than cars and how much poor ground has to be dug out and replaced. A lot that's mostly car parking on firm ground costs less than one with loading lanes on soft clay, and your estimate spells out which you have.

How long does a concrete parking lot last?

No single number fits every lot, because its life depends on the design, the ground under it, the traffic, the drainage, how well it's built and the upkeep and repairs it gets afterward. That's general guidance from contractors in the trade, and it means the decisions made before the pour count for a great deal. It's the reason I ask so many questions at the estimate.

Can concrete be poured in hot weather in Wichita Falls?

Yes. Industry guidance says concrete placed in hot weather generally holds up about as well as concrete placed at normal temperatures, as long as it reaches satisfactory strength and curing keeps the fresh surface from drying out. In a Wichita Falls summer, we plan pour times around the heat and keep the new slab protected while it cures.

Does the clay soil in Wichita Falls affect a new parking lot?

Yes. About 43% of the land in Wichita Falls has clay that rates high for swelling, and that clay swells when it's wet and shrinks when it dries, so the ground under a new lot needs close attention here. Soils also change from one property to the next, and the general guidance is that a geotechnical engineer, a specialist in soil and ground conditions, should assess your property before decisions are made.

Who arranges the accessibility review for a new parking lot in Texas?

The building owner does. A Texas accessibility form makes the owner responsible for having a Registered Accessibility Specialist complete the required plan review and inspection, and the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation is where that project registration is filed. Find out early whether your project falls under it so the review fits into the schedule.

How do I maintain a concrete parking lot?

You maintain a concrete lot by keeping an eye on its joints, its drainage and the areas that take the heaviest traffic, because concrete lots aren't maintenance-free. How much upkeep yours needs depends on the pavement's condition, the traffic, the joint system, the drainage and the weather it's exposed to. If something starts to look wrong, call us and I'll come take a look.

Concrete parking lot building in Wichita Falls and nearby

The City of Wichita Falls lists contractor registration and a separate concrete-paving contractor item on its Building Inspections checklists, and the city takes plans through an online portal for review and approval. Before we start, we check with the city office where your lot is, and when a permit is needed we handle the application and paperwork for you.

Most lots we're called to here sit behind shops, churches and offices, where the old paving has heaved or sunk with the clay and delivery trucks have broken up the edges. We see the same ground on jobs in Burkburnett and Iowa Park, and in other cities around them.
