Churches are more than just places of worship — they’re community hubs hosting weekly services, weddings, outreach programs, and seasonal events. When it comes time to pave or resurface your church parking lot or driveways, planning is key to minimize disruption and maintain a safe, welcoming environment for your congregation.
At Reid Paving, Inc., we’ve worked with numerous churches throughout Atlanta and West Georgia since 1977. We understand the unique scheduling and accessibility needs that faith-based properties require.
In this blog, we’ll share practical tips for asphalt paving for churches to help your property look its best without interfering with your important gatherings.
Why Churches Need Specialized Asphalt Planning
Churches often have peak traffic times on weekends and specific event dates. Unlike commercial properties that can sometimes shut down during paving, churches must maintain accessibility and safety for worshipers. Poorly timed projects can lead to frustration, safety risks, and lost attendance.
1. Communicate Early with Your Paving Contractor
Open, early communication ensures your contractor understands your schedule — including service times, special events, and large gatherings. This allows for planning paving phases that avoid peak attendance.
2. Phase the Project for Minimal Disruption
Large parking lots can be paved in sections over multiple days or weeks. This keeps part of the lot available for parking while work continues elsewhere.
3. Schedule Work on Off-Peak Days or Times
Consider weekdays, evenings, or early mornings for disruptive work. Avoid weekends or holiday periods when your congregation will be present.
4. Use Clear Signage and Communication for Visitors
Inform your congregation about paving schedules in advance through bulletins, websites, or social media. Onsite signage during work helps direct traffic safely and prevents confusion.
5. Prioritize Safety and Accessibility
Ensure that accessible parking and pathways remain open and compliant during construction. Temporary ramps or parking areas may be necessary to meet ADA requirements.
6. Plan for Weather Contingencies
Georgia weather can be unpredictable. Have backup plans for rain delays and communicate changes promptly with your congregation.
