Commercial Concrete Parking Lots & Driveways in Charlotte, NC
Charlotte Concrete Services builds and repairs concrete parking lots, entrance drives, drive lanes and service drives for retail centers, offices, churches, apartments and industrial sites.
Asphalt softens and ruts through Charlotte summers with highs near 90 while delivery trucks grind the same lanes daily. Concrete holds its shape and stays cooler, and we build it to meet the Charlotte-Mecklenburg post-construction stormwater ordinance and CDOT or NCDOT entrance permits.
We bid lots from Ballantyne to University City & more.

Parking Lot & Driveway Services
Parking Lot Construction
Rutted asphalt and standing water say the property is neglected. We build concrete lots on a compacted, proof-rolled base to the engineer's thickness and reinforcement, heavier in truck lanes, joints aligned to striping.
Entrances & Curb Cuts
A broken apron is the first thing drivers feel. We pour entrance drives and curb cuts to approved plans under a CDOT right-of-way permit, or an NCDOT driveway permit on state routes like Independence Blvd.
Stormwater & Pervious Concrete
New impervious surface brings Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services review. Pervious concrete stalls let rain soak into a stone reservoir below. We also build conventional lots with curb inlets and trench drains.
ADA Stalls & Curb Ramps
Steep accessible stalls and ramps without detectable warnings are common findings. We pour accessible stalls and aisles at 2 percent maximum slope in any direction with compliant ramps; street ramps fall under our commercial sidewalks and curbs work.
Panel Replacement & Repair
Cracked or sunken panels near dumpsters and loading lanes create liability. We saw-cut failed panels, fix soft subgrade, dowel into the surrounding slab, pour replacements thicker where plans allow and reseal joints, keeping part of the lot open.
EV Charger Pads & Conduit
Chargers are showing up in Ballantyne office parks and apartment lots. We pour charger pads and bollard footings and set conduit with your electrician before the pour.
How We Build Your Lot
Site Walk & Bid
We review civil plans, walk the site and bid in writing with phasing.
Permits, Locates & Grading
Right-of-way permits and NC 811 locates first, then erosion controls, grading and base.
Paving & Joints
Paving crews pour with a broom texture for wet traction; joints are cut and sealed on time.
Cure, Stripe & Open
Panels cure before traffic returns, usually in phases, with striping coordinated.
Commercial Parking Lot FAQs
What does a concrete parking lot cost?
From plans and a site visit, since thickness, base and phasing vary.
Why choose concrete over asphalt in Charlotte?
It does not soften in heat, resists rutting, stays lighter and needs less maintenance.
Can you keep our business open during the work?
Yes. We phase the lot, keep entrances usable and schedule loud work off-hours.
Do we need a permit for a new entrance?
Yes. CDOT issues driveway permits for city streets; NCDOT rules apply on state routes.
Does pervious concrete work on clay soil?
Yes, with a deep stone reservoir and sometimes an underdrain, since clay soaks slowly.
How long until cars can park on new concrete?
Cars after about a week; trucks wait longer. See how long before driving on new concrete.
