Need durable asphalt speed bumps that stay put, drain right, and hold up to daily traffic? Serving Phoenix since 2018, Apex Asphalt Phoenix installs and repairs speed bumps for HOAs, apartments, schools, churches, and commercial lots with clear layout, solid compaction, and clean striping.
Good asphalt speed bumps start with the base, not the mix. We mark the bump location to protect turning radii and drainage paths, then sawcut and remove loose or oxidized asphalt where needed. For repairs and replacements, we re-establish a stable foundation with compacted aggregate base (often 3-6 inches, depending on existing pavement strength) and a tack coat so new hot-mix asphalt bonds to the old surface. We place material in lifts, shape the profile, and compact with a vibratory plate compactor or small roller to prevent raveling and edge failure.
Phoenix heat, monsoon bursts, and oil drips in parking areas all punish thin or poorly bonded bumps. We build the crown and edges to shed water, and we feather transitions so vehicles do not peel the asphalt at the ends. Depending on site needs, we finish with a dense-graded hot-mix asphalt, seal exposed edges, and apply high-visibility pavement markings using traffic-grade paint or thermoplastic where specified. If the lot is due for maintenance, we can coordinate crack sealing, infrared patching, sealcoating, and restriping so the speed bumps match the rest of the pavement system.
Property managers choose us because we treat speed bumps like a pavement project, not a quick pile of mix. You get a straightforward plan for placement, number of bumps, and sign options, plus a free written estimate with clear scope. Our crew is licensed and insured, and we show up with the right equipment for tight parking lots, including saws, skid steer support when needed, and compaction tools sized to the work. We keep the site organized with cones and barricades, and we schedule around business hours to reduce disruption for tenants, deliveries, and customers.
Before we leave, we walk the area with you and confirm the bump profile, drainage, and visibility. We verify tight joints, clean edges, and proper compaction, then complete striping and install or coordinate speed bump signs if requested. You receive the written scope, recommended cure time before heavy traffic, and maintenance guidance (crack sealing, sealcoating intervals, and re-striping timing). If you called us for a repair, we also note any adjacent alligator cracking or base failure so you can plan the next asphalt patch or overlay with real priorities.
Yes. We provide a free written estimate after an on-site evaluation of the asphalt, base, and drainage conditions.
Light traffic is often possible after the mat cools and firms up, commonly the same day. Heavier loads and sharp turning should wait longer; we give site-specific guidance based on temperature, thickness, and traffic type.
Yes. We address water issues with grading adjustments, leveling courses, spot milling, edge repairs, and small drainage improvements when feasible, because standing water shortens pavement life.
Yes. We can plan phasing, access lanes, and off-hours work when the site allows, and we coordinate temporary striping and barricades for safety.
Repairs commonly include saw-cut and removal, base reconditioning or replacement, tack coat, hot mix asphalt placement in lifts, compaction with appropriate rollers, and a clean transition to existing pavement.
Asphalt speed bumps are a practical way to calm traffic in parking lots, private streets, and gated communities, but they only work when they are built on a stable base and bonded correctly to existing pavement. Apex Asphalt Phoenix installs new speed bumps and repairs failed bumps that have cracked, shoveled, or raveled at the edges. We focus on proper layout, compaction, and drainage so the bump controls speed without turning into a trip hazard, a scraping point, or a maintenance headache.
Most speed bump failures come from weak support or poor bonding. If the bump was installed over oxidized asphalt, loose sealcoat, or a soft base, it can shift and crack under braking and turning forces. Our process addresses the root cause by removing unstable material, rebuilding the aggregate base where needed, applying tack coat, and compacting the hot-mix asphalt to a dense finish. The result is a bump that stays tight at the joints, resists edge breakup, and performs better under repeated traffic.
Placement matters as much as construction. We help you choose locations that control speed without blocking drainage paths or interfering with accessible routes and parking layout. When a site needs it, we pair speed bump work with crack sealing, asphalt patching, sealcoating, and restriping so the entire lot functions as one system, not a patchwork of quick fixes.
If you need asphalt speed bumps in Phoenix, contact Apex Asphalt Phoenix for a free written estimate. We will review traffic flow, pavement condition, and visibility needs, then provide a clear scope for installation or repair, striping, and signage coordination.
