How Cold is Too Cold to Pave a Driveway?

concrete-driveway-repair-contractors

While most paving industry professionals say that you should pave your driveway between May and August, you can pave your driveway at other times of the year. Asphalt and concrete driveway repair contractors have several key tips when paving a driveway during colder months.

How Cold is Too Cold?

You want to improve your home’s overall curb appeal with a new driveway. However, summer has passed and the weather has grown considerably colder. Many asphalt and concrete driveway repair contractors recommend paving no later than the autumn months. Once winter sets in, the materials and the installation can be bogged down by freezing temperatures.

Install Time

One of the key reasons you want to install a new driveway during warmer weather is because of the decreased installation time available. The shorter installation time can affect the overall structural integrity of the materials. Cold temperatures may degrade materials considerably. Compression can become difficult. For example, you want to mix asphalt around twenty degrees Celsius.

Choose the Right Installer

At the end of the day, no matter the time of year, the installers you choose will make a massive difference. A professionally experienced crew will install your driveway safely and efficiently. A properly installed driveway will last years longer and have less wear and tear over time.

Always Ask Questions

When talking with your contractor about installing a driveway in colder temperatures, ask key questions like:

  • Can they complete the job quickly?
  • How long does the project take?
  • Can they get the job done on time?
  • How will the weather affect the installation?
  • Do they have adequate equipment to complete the job?
  • What transportation issues are involved if they choose to transport asphalt?
