Updating Parking Lot to Required ADA Standards

Christine I.
Posted

Do you have any experience working with asphalt/concrete contactor to update apartment parking lots to bring them up to current ADA standards? I have not had any complaints from tenants, just trying to be proactive. I met with contractor yesterday and now have a $100k bid which seems outrageous. I have 3 disabled parking stalls that I will have to adjust the grade by a few degrees and a concrete landing at one door that will also have to be adjusted. That means grinding/adding asphalt and concrete.  I will add detectable domes, install ADA striping (how much does paint cost??). He also wants to install 3 entrance signs to parking lot (there are 3 entrances) and 8 info signs. I believe the info signs are to notify potential tenants where the office is located. I actually have multiple signage for office location but he said it's not obvious enough. The parking lot itself is in good shape without pot holes.
