Retail Story
“With such an expansive portfolio of stores, understanding my inventory and scheduling cost-effective repairs is difficult.”
Who said it?
Manager of Building Services for a multi-billion-dollar national retailer.
What prompted it?
The retailer’s operations team had to find ways to maximize pavement maintenance costs while still providing safe and attractive parking lots.
What is the problem:
Without firsthand knowledge of each site, budget dollars can be misappropriated or even unused. This may result in improper repairs or lack of maintenance.
The solution:
Rose Paving’s scoping team evaluated all 259 sites in question and determined that, if scheduled immediately, cracksealing and lot marking would be the most cost-effective repairs. Once approved, multiple teams were mobilized to enable batch repairs. Grouping repairs saves money on materials and resources.
Repairs for the first batch of 123 stores were completed in just 42 days; repairs for the second batch of 136 stores were completed in 74 days. The entire project met all budget requirements and exceeded scheduling expectations.
Why?
If cracks are left untreated, in just three to six years, the same areas will cost 30 to 40 times more money in structural repairs. Lot marking directs people safely around a parking lot and enhances curb appeal.

Oil & Gas Success Story
“We have zero downtime during the day to repair our parking lots. Convenience is our business and customers require access 24-7.”
Who said it?
Facility Maintenance Manager for a multi-billion-dollar national fuel center.
What prompted it?
Over 300 locations spanning twenty-six states were due for maintenance, but concern over business disruption was delaying decision making.
What is the problem:
While business operation is always a chief concern, deferring parking lot repairs compromises pavement condition and, subsequently, jeopardizes access to each location and the bottom line. It is necessary to partner with a contractor that has the resources to perform work across multiple states, in stages, and during off-peak hours to minimize disruption while maximizing pavement usability.
The solution:
Rose Paving was able to batch stores in concentrated markets to maximize productivity and buying power. Plus, with a dedicated project-management team to handle traffic control at each site, parking lots and drive lanes remained open throughout repairs and trucks could park overnight as usual.
Why?
A neglected parking lot is hazardous to travelers and may hurt business profits and reputation. Being proactive–and making time for repairs–is the most cost-effective solution to maximize pavement life and minimize risk.
Restaurant Success Story
“When faced with urgent projects, I don’t have time to chase contractors, review bids, and track progress to ensure results.”
Who said it?
Senior Facilities Manager for a multi-million-dollar restaurant chain.
What prompted it?
Fifteen corporate-owned restaurants required parking lot and sidewalk maintenance prior to sale to private ownership. A strict timeframe was imposed in which to inspect and complete work on each site and only areas in absolute need of maintenance were to be repaired.
What is the problem:
Time was in short supply. Our client needed to streamline decision making, execute repairs quickly, and stay within budget. However, without knowing the pavement condition of every site, there was no way to prioritize parking lot repairs.
The solution:
Forty-eight hours after the initial conversation, Rose Paving met our client in Michigan to begin two days of thorough site inspections statewide. By the end of the same week, all evaluations, work scope, site maps, and pricing were complete and approved by the client well ahead of deadline.
Why?
Partnering with one contractor that has resources ready to inspect and repair multiple sites saves time in qualifying bids and it reduces the cost-per-site since material can be bought in bulk. Plus, using one contractor for an entire portfolio ensures consistent results across all locations.
