Speed Bump & Curb Installation
Slowing Down for Safety. Built to Last by TDS Asphalt.
At TDS Asphalt, we understand that safety starts at ground level—literally. Whether you’re managing a commercial parking lot, an apartment complex, a school campus, or a residential neighborhood, properly installed speed bumps and curbs play a key role in traffic control, pedestrian safety, and property aesthetics.
As a family-owned asphalt company serving communities across Massachusetts for over two decades, we don’t just lay pavement—we build trust. If you’re looking for expertly installed speed bumps or curbing that holds up through harsh New England seasons, you’re in the right place. We take pride in doing the job right the first time, with careful attention to detail and communication every step of the way.
Why Install Speed Bumps and Curbs?
You’ve likely driven over—or around—a poorly installed speed bump before. Maybe it was too steep, cracked, or awkwardly placed. At TDS Asphalt, we make sure yours won’t be.
Speed Bumps: Control Speed and Protect Lives
Speed bumps are critical in reducing vehicle speeds in high-pedestrian areas such as:
-
Parking lots
-
School zones
-
Private roadways
-
Apartment complexes
-
HOA neighborhoods
They help reduce accidents, discourage cut-through traffic, and keep pedestrians—especially children—safe.
Curbs: Define Space and Prevent Damage
Curbing serves both functional and aesthetic purposes. Whether you need curbs to:
-
Direct water runoff
-
Protect landscaping
-
Create clean parking boundaries
-
Elevate the look of your property
—our team will install them with precision, using high-quality materials built to endure Massachusetts weather.
Our Speed Bump & Curb Installation Process
We believe in transparency and doing things the right way. Here’s what you can expect when you work with TDS Asphalt:
1. Site Assessment
We begin by meeting on-site to understand your property’s traffic flow, drainage needs, and safety concerns. We’ll walk the property with you, recommend the best speed bump or curb layout, and provide a detailed quote—no surprises.
2. Customized Planning
Every property is unique. We factor in:
-
Local regulations and ADA compliance
-
Proper slope and height for speed bumps
-
Materials best suited for your space and usage
-
Traffic direction and water drainage
We’ll map out the installation with care and communicate our plan clearly before moving forward.
3. Surface Preparation
Before installation begins, we clean and prep the surface, ensuring optimal adhesion and longevity. This step is essential for durability—especially in our Massachusetts climate, where freeze-thaw cycles can ruin shortcuts.
4. Installation
Using top-tier asphalt or pre-formed rubber/composite products (depending on your choice), we install your speed bumps and curbs with exacting precision. For asphalt speed bumps or extruded curbs, we use hot-mix asphalt, compacted to perfection.
5. Striping & Finishing Touches
We finish with reflective striping, signage (if requested), and paint to enhance visibility and ensure your new installation complies with local guidelines and best practices.
6. Clean-Up & Final Walkthrough
We treat your property like our own—leaving it clean, safe, and ready for use. You’ll get a full walkthrough and instructions for care and maintenance.
What Sets TDS Asphalt Apart?
Built on Family Values
We’re not a franchise. We’re a family. And that means our name is on every job. Our customers aren’t just clients—they’re neighbors, friends, and fellow business owners.
Master-Level Craftsmanship
Each project we take on reflects our standard of excellence. From layout to compaction to finishing, we go beyond the minimum. Our curbs and speed bumps last longer because we refuse to cut corners.
Communication Is Key
You’re never left guessing. We keep you informed before, during, and after the project. Our team is responsive, respectful, and easy to reach.
Massachusetts Weather Expertise
We know the toll that New England winters take on asphalt and concrete. Our methods and materials are specifically chosen for seasonal durability. No early cracking, heaving, or crumbling.
Long-Term Care and Maintenance Tips
After installation, proper care ensures your investment continues to serve its purpose for years. Here are a few tips:
-
Sealcoating: If asphalt speed bumps or curbs are installed, apply a protective sealant every 2–3 years to defend against UV damage and moisture.
-
Snow Removal Precautions: During plowing, alert your snow removal team to avoid direct contact with raised features.
-
Repainting Striping: Refresh reflective paint every 1–2 years to maintain visibility and compliance.
-
Routine Inspections: Walk the property occasionally to check for early signs of wear or damage.
-
Prompt Repairs: Small cracks can become large problems. Let us know early, and we can patch or repair before replacement becomes necessary.
