Orange County Asphalt and Concrete Repiar

Asphalt Contractors Perform ADA Upgrades in Santa Ana

This week Orange County paving company; Empire Parking Lot Services was contacted to do some asphalt and concrete repairs relating to an ADA lawsuit. As mentioned our customer had been named in the compliance lawsuit, and needed to make the repairs in order to satisfy the ADA compliance codes for Orange County California. This project was basically removing some concrete sidewalks and ramps that were not compliant, and installing some new ones in that met local ADA compliance. Once the asphalt and concrete grades were shot and a scope of work was determined, we gave our customer the proposal. They accepted the proposal, and we scheduled the project to be completed on a weekend for the convenience of our customer’s tenants.  This project was located in Santa Ana and required some careful planning as well as our customer needed us to pull all of the permits as well as  setting up the inspection after the project was completed.

About this ADA Compliance Project

This job started as every project Empire Parking Lot Services performs. We barricade of the work area keeping the general public at a safe distance. As always safety is our chief concern on these projects. Once barricaded, the next thing to be done was the removal of the asphalt and concrete that was not up to code. We use saw cutting to cleanly remove only the areas of concrete and asphalt that were affected by the ADA code. One of Empire Parking Lot Services main goals is to get a customer’s parking lot up to ADA compliance while doing as little work as possible. With the asphalt and concrete demolition work done it was time to load the old asphalt and concrete into the trucks and haul it away to the plant for recycling. It’s important to keep in mind the fact that both asphalt and concrete are highly reusable and are some of the oldest and greenest building mediums on the planet. Long before recycling was necessary or trendy these materials have been getting recycled and reused. Once the asphalt and concrete removal was done, we started to form and pour the new concrete handicap ramps and concrete sidewalks. The concrete sidewalks are the first things we frame, followed closely by the concrete handicap ramps. Once the new ramps and sidewalks where formed and poured, it was time to move onto the asphalt needed to be patched back to the edge of the newly installed concrete.
