Even though New England is currently covered in snow, now is a great time to think about your asphalt pavement repair plan. At Cassidy Paving, we often use the winter as a planning season since paving cannot be successfully achieved when the ground temperatures are below freezing. You should take advantage of this offseason as well. According to our experts, these are the things to keep in mind when planning to tackle asphalt repairs this spring.
How to Prepare for Asphalt Repairs
Inspect Your Property
Only you can really understand the day to day reliability of your asphalt pavement. Whether it is an asphalt driveway or asphalt parking lot, you are probably pretty familiar with the rough patches and smooth areas. If you have noticed some shifting in your asphalt this winter, we suggest making note of that. Take a walk around your property to see what looks different or concerning. This is helpful for when we arrive. Though we thoroughly inspect the property and will know where to fix issues, with our customer’s help, we can ensure we hit the areas most important to them and their business in the timeliest manner. Inspecting your property during the winter is a great way to get a head start on a repair plan. Once you’ve decided it is time for professional help, give the crew at Cassidy Paving a call. Even though most of our work cannot be done during the winter season, we often inspect pavement in the winter in order to expedite the repair process come spring. This helps your business stay fully operational with as little downtime as possible. Not only will this save you time and money in the long run by staying open and fully functional since you got a jumpstart on repairs, it also decreases liability on your property, ensuring your asphalt is as safe as possible as soon as possible for your staff and customers.
Budget Early
If you are aware of cracking, asphalt potholes, or drainage issues, now is the time to think about your budget. Having a full understanding of what repairs you will need from our early inspection will allow you additional time to save for the expense. Calling us during the offseason will provide you with a few months of buffer in order to understand how much it will actually cost and save for your needed repairs. As with any property repairs, knowing the costs you face early is the best way to prepare for additional costs associated with this work.
