Bay Crab Exteriors brings the same attention to detail and craftsmanship to commercial projects that we're known for on residential properties. Our team understands the unique requirements of commercial hardscaping — from ADA compliance to phased installation that keeps your business open.
Commercial Hardscaping FAQs
Commercial hardscaping uses heavier-duty materials designed for high traffic and daily wear. Commercial pavers are thicker (typically 80mm vs 60mm residential), base preparation is more extensive (often 8-12 inches of compacted aggregate), and installations must meet ADA accessibility requirements. Commercial projects also factor in maintenance equipment access, proper large-surface drainage, and compliance with local commercial building codes.
Yes! We specialize in phased installations that allow your business to remain operational throughout the project. We can work in sections, schedule work during off-hours or weekends, create temporary walkways to maintain customer access, and coordinate with your team to minimize disruption. For parking lots, we work one section at a time so portions remain available to your customers.
Properly installed commercial hardscaping lasts 25-50+ years with minimal maintenance. High-quality interlocking commercial pavers are engineered to withstand daily vehicle traffic. Unlike poured concrete which cracks and requires full replacement, damaged pavers can be individually replaced without disturbing the surrounding installation.
Yes, we manage all permitting and inspections required for commercial hardscape installations in Southern Maryland. This includes submitting site plans to county building departments, coordinating ADA compliance reviews, scheduling required inspections, and ensuring all work meets commercial building codes in Calvert, Anne Arundel, Charles, and St. Mary's Counties.
Absolutely. All our commercial walkway installations meet ADA accessibility guidelines including proper slope ratios (1:12 maximum for ramps), slip-resistant paver surfaces, compliant handrail installation where required, proper landing dimensions, and accessible parking space connections. We work from ADA-compliant designs and have extensive experience with commercial accessibility requirements.
We provide a comprehensive warranty covering both materials and installation. Manufacturer warranties on commercial-grade pavers typically range from 25-50 years against defects. Our installation warranty covers base settling, paver shifting, and drainage issues for 3-5 years depending on project scope. Detailed warranty terms are included in every commercial contract.
