High-Performance Asphalt in Albany NY: Sports Courts, Supermarkets & Heavy-Traffic Lots Done Right
Not all paving jobs are created equal — and not all pavement needs are the same.
Whether you’re building a basketball court in Colonie, upgrading a bank parking lot in Albany, or resurfacing a supermarket lot in Schenectady, one thing’s for sure:
You need a paving contractor who understands traffic flow, surface performance, and long-term durability — not just one that throws down blacktop and leaves.

Built for Traffic, Not Just Looks
When we say performance paving, we’re talking about surfaces designed to handle:
Constant vehicle traffic without rutting or raveling
Heavy turning and braking from delivery trucks and fleets
Lateral movement and impact from sports and rec play
Consistent drainage to prevent water pooling, erosion, or freeze damage
ADA-compliant access zones, including ramps, crosswalks, and signage
For a high-use space, looks matter — but performance keeps your business running.
High-Traffic Business Lots: Banks, Pharmacies, and Retail
We’ve paved dozens of high-traffic commercial lots across Albany, Colonie, and Schenectady, including:
Banks and credit unions, where drive-thru traffic wears grooves into poorly built lots
Pharmacies and strip plazas, where fast turnaround and minimal downtime matter
Supermarket parking lots, where constant foot traffic and cart wheels put pavement to the test
Medical offices, where ADA compliance and safety striping are non-negotiable
If you’ve noticed:
Fading or worn striping
Dips and standing water
Cracks forming at entrances and exits
…it’s time to address it before minor wear becomes costly downtime or liability.
Performance Surfaces for Sports & Rec
Asphalt isn’t just for vehicles. It’s also the surface under thousands of Capital Region sports courts, trails, and rec areas.
We’ve worked with:
Local school districts for blacktop playgrounds and basketball courts
Private communities for pickleball and tennis courts
Municipal parks for walking trails, loop paths, and rec zones
These jobs require tight grading, specialized surface finishes, and a crew that knows how to dial in the details.
They’re not weekend projects — and they’re not for amateurs.
Engineering the Right Mix for the Job
One of the biggest mistakes we see? Using the same asphalt mix for every job.
Egan Paving uses a project-specific approach, selecting materials based on:
Traffic load expectations
Exposure to sunlight and drainage patterns
Freeze-thaw cycles (which hit Schenectady and Albany hard in winter)
Sub-base composition and compaction needs
That’s how we create asphalt that lasts — even in New York’s rough seasons.
