I just got a new asphalt driveway installed by Economy and they were fantastic to work with. I had an interesting experience contracting them. Joseph came to my house shortly after I moved in back in 2019 and quoted the driveway. It was out of my budget at the time, so I ended up doing gravel. I'm embarrased to say I never even responded to his quote back then. I had forgotten about that and when embarking on the asphalt project again, I had found another couple of local contractors. One got me a quote about 2 weeks after visiting. I asked a follow up question and never got a response. Another got me a quote 2 MONTHS after visiting, and it was 3 times as high as the first. Because I was waiting so long for the 2nd quote, I searched my email for "asphalt" to see if maybe I missed it, and Joseph's quote from 2019 came up. It was significantly lower than the 1st quote I got (which makes sense because it was 2019), but even after coming out (not giving me a hard time about my lack of response from before) and getting me a quote in just a few days, he was still the lowest. Scheduling was easy and communication was clear. He called the day before they were scheduled to start and let me know that his new baby had come early, and he would not be able to be there, but his partner, Abi would run the work. I lined Abi out the next morning, and they were off to the races. He didn't miss a thing, communicated great, and did a great job. They knocked out a 4,000 SF driveway including a 250'L berm one one side in 2 days. It was clear that they took pride in their work, and they worked a really long day on day 2 to make sure everything was done well. Great work done by great people.
Joseph and the entire crew are the best you could possibly ask to do work for you or your buisness. They have done work at our shopping plaza in Everett two times now and the work is fast and holds up to the heavy use from our customers! When you consider a company that is reputable and honest you have to go with Economy Asphalt & Concrete LLC. Thanks Joseph!!
Josheph and his team did a great hob on two commercial parking lots, I can't recommend team highly enough. Dave
Economy Asphalt has done several projects for us. Their work is excellent, they are on-time and on-budget. The communication with them is very good and they follow through with what they say they will do. I highly recommend them.
I feel bad that I am just now posting this review! I was reminded yesterday by one of our condo owners, at a building in Snohomish where I have my business, that our experience with and results from Economy Asphalt were over the top! We had an eruption of water and clay in the middle of our back parking lot in January that Joseph and his team were able to quickly excavate, refill and repave a large area to prevent further eruptions. The building HOA will be using them again soon to complete repaving the lot. Great work and fairly priced!
As president of a cul de sac homeowner's association, the time arrived for me to gain support to seal coat and fill cracks in the development's private road. An investment of this size always brings significant scrutiny. Joseph was extremely helpful in answering my neighbors' questions and concerns prior to their approving the project. He was extremely helpful scheduling mutually acceptable time for the project. After his very professional crew completed the work, Joseph's exemplary customer service to finalize with some minor touch-up was most impressive. I give Economy Asphalt & Concrete my highest recommendation.
We just had our driveway asphalted today, Joseph gave us a great bid and they went above and beyond our expectations. They were early, took extra time to go over the work they did. They also recommended some work on the side of the driveway and took care of that in the same day. All the workers were professional and did a great job. I would highly recommend them. We will definitely be using them again in the future.
I would recommend Economy Asphalt to anyone & everyone! There service was prompt, their communication was fantastic and they went ABOVE & BEYOND what I expected. They poured a concrete floor in my garage & my barn and built a gravel driveway. I got bids from a few companies before I hired them and they were the most affordable of my quotes. I made a few last minute changes and they were able to to accommodate me with no problem. It's refreshing to find a company that is dependable, skilled and affordable. You won't be disappointed.
Joseph and his team did an excellent job replacing our asphalt driveway with concrete and paving our weed infested parking strip. They were communicative, efficient and did fantastic work. I would recommend to anyone looking for concrete and/or asphalt work.
Joseph was responsive, professional and timely. Tje quality of work was excellent. I highly recommend him.
We had our driveway redone by Economy and was extremely pleased with the result. We found few companies that did both concrete and asphalt. Of those that did, not all use rebar in concrete (which was a must for me). This was definitely an expensive project, but they not only came in at the lowest bid, but I was most pleased with their service and what they offered compared to others, so it was a no brainer!
Common Questions
In Seattle’s wet climate, parking lot striping typically needs to be redone every 18-24 months. However, high-traffic areas or lots exposed to harsh conditions may require restriping more frequently, possibly every 12-18 months.
Water-based acrylic paints are commonly used in Seattle due to their durability and quick drying time. For areas with heavy traffic or frequent rain exposure, some contractors may recommend thermoplastic markings for longer-lasting results.
Drying time can vary depending on temperature and humidity levels. In Seattle’s climate, water-based paints typically dry to the touch within 30 minutes to an hour. However, it’s usually recommended to wait at least 24 hours before allowing vehicle traffic on newly striped areas.
Yes, Seattle has specific regulations regarding parking lot striping, including:
- ADA compliance for accessible parking spaces
- Minimum parking space dimensions (typically 8.5 feet wide by 19 feet long for standard spaces)
- Requirements for electric vehicle charging stations in certain new developments Always check with the Seattle Department of Construction and Inspections for the most up-to-date requirements.
While it’s possible to stripe parking lots during the rainy season, it’s not ideal. Most contractors prefer to schedule striping during drier months (typically May to September) to ensure proper adhesion and drying of the paint. For necessary work during wet periods, contractors may use specialized quick-drying paints or plan around weather forecasts.
Yes, in line with Seattle’s environmental focus, there are eco-friendly options:
- Low-VOC or zero-VOC water-based paints
- Paints made with recycled materials
- Reflective glass beads for improved visibility and reduced lighting needs These options align with Seattle’s commitment to sustainability.
Seattle’s emphasis on alternative transportation means parking lot designs often need to include:
- Clearly marked pedestrian walkways
- Designated bike parking areas
- Safe crossing zones between parking areas and building entrances These elements should be incorporated into the striping plan to ensure safety and compliance with local regulations.
To improve visibility:
- Use high-quality, reflective paint
- Add reflective glass beads to the paint for enhanced nighttime visibility
- Consider using contrasting colors for critical markings (like pedestrian crossings)
- Ensure proper lighting throughout the parking lot
- Schedule regular maintenance and touch-ups to keep lines bright and visible
