You can still get asphalt services in the fall!

Asphalt paving has its seasons. Each year, asphalt contractors have a limited period in which to work, and authorities in charge of maintaininghighways,parking lots,residential driveways, and other pavements also need to work within their best time frame. What are the best asphalt services for fall in Maryland?

Can You Perform Asphalt Paving & Maintenance in Fall?

Hot mix asphalt, the traditional asphalt paving material, is successful when the ambient temperature remains above 50 degrees Fahrenheit. That being said, October could be an iffy time for customers to reach out to asphalt contractors to get traditional maintenance and paving projects done. However, in Maryland, the weather can remain fair throughout October, and contractors have different solutions like warm mix and cold patch to complete jobs well.

Minor Repairs

In the last days of mild weather, asphalt contractors can perform minor asphalt repairs, such as asphalt crack filling. It’s important to address asphalt cracks, or else they will become larger and more dangerous over time. Wider asphalt cracks can also turn into potholes and lead to severe sublayer damage.

Overlays and Patching

More serious damage such as washed out pavements and potholes need overlays and patching. With the new top layer, or even a replacement of a portion of the sublayer as well, your asphalt pavement can be as good as new.

Sealcoating

Sealcoating is the application of a bitumen top layer that protects the asphalt from oxidation, water damage, and spills. Bitumen is the sticky black substance, a petroleum byproduct, that holds the gravel in asphalt together. It’s best to sealcoat the pavement every few years.

Pavement Marking

If the asphalt pavement in question has thermoplastic markings, you will need to renew these markings perhaps every other year, depending on how much wear and tear the pavement gets. Fall is a great season to do this!
