Speed Bump Installation in Tampa
Managing vehicle speed is essential to keeping your property safe for pedestrians, drivers, and visitors. Our speed bump installation services in Tampa help you slow down traffic in parking lots, private roads, and residential communities—creating a safer, more controlled environment without disrupting daily operations.
We install durable, properly placed speed bumps designed to improve safety while keeping your property easy to navigate.
Types of Speed Bumps We Install
We offer two main types of speed bump installations, depending on the needs of your property:
- Asphalt Speed Bumps: These are built directly into the pavement and shaped on-site. Asphalt bumps offer a permanent, durable solution that can be customized to match your lot’s layout and traffic patterns.
- Preformed Rubber Speed Bumps: Made from heavy-duty rubber, these are ideal for quick installation and areas where flexibility is important. They’re highly visible, easy to maintain, and can be removed or repositioned if needed.
Not sure which option is right for your property? We’ll evaluate your site, traffic volume, and long-term goals to recommend the best solution for improving safety without unnecessary disruption.
Proper Placement Matters
Speed bumps are only effective when they’re installed in the right locations. We plan every installation carefully to control traffic flow, reduce speeding, and improve safety—without causing unnecessary delays or damage to vehicles. Placement, spacing, and visibility all play a big role in ensuring your speed bumps do their job while keeping your property easy to navigate.
How Asphalt Speed Bumps Are Installed
Asphalt speed bumps are a permanent traffic control solution built directly onto your existing pavement. We follow a detailed installation process to ensure your speed bumps are durable, effective, and properly placed for long-term performance.
- Site Evaluation: Before installation, we assess the site, check the pavement condition, and determine the best locations to slow traffic without disrupting emergency access or creating unnecessary backups.
- Planning and Design: We design each speed bump to match the needs of your property, factoring in dimensions, traffic flow, drainage, and Tampa’s local guidelines.
- Marking the Area: The bump layout is marked directly onto the pavement as a guide for proper placement and shape during installation.
- Surface Preparation: We thoroughly clean the area to remove debris, oil, and dirt—ensuring a strong bond between the new asphalt and existing pavement.
- Asphalt Placement and Shaping: Fresh asphalt is placed and carefully shaped into the speed bump using specialized hand tools. We shape the bump to create smooth transitions for vehicles while effectively reducing speed.
- Compaction: Once formed, the asphalt is compacted to lock it tightly into the pavement and ensure lasting durability.
- Finishing Touches: After the asphalt cools and sets, we stripe the speed bump for maximum visibility—making sure drivers can see it clearly day or night.
When installed properly, asphalt speed bumps don’t just slow down traffic—they help protect pedestrians, reduce liability risks, and keep your parking lot or private road safer for everyone.
