The short answer, is that yes, extended exposure to the sun can have a damaging effect on your pavement.  You might be thinking that your pavement is always in the sun, and there isn't anything you can really do about it.  That is perfectly okay, you just need to be aware of this so you can properly care for your pavement.

As a commercial pavement and asphalt company, Pavement Specialties has taken care of many different customers from small residential jobs up to large commercial jobs like the Cabela's here in town.  If you ever want to see the quality of our work, just check out the Cabela's parking lot!

If you are considering paving services, it can help to know that past clients were treated well and given excellent service.  We strive to do just that, but don't take our word for it.  Here is an excerpt from one of our customers:

While there isn't often mention of paving and pavement industry information in the mainstream news media, there is one song that speaks to the good times that can be had in a parking lot.  Chris Cagle's song, "Wal-Mart Parking Lot" is a tribute to the good times had in high school while just hanging out in the parking lot. 

Spring is now in full swing and with it comes the rain. You've certainly noticed the last month or so worth of constant rain. What you may not know, is that this rain can compromise the integrity of your pavement whether it's your driveway or a parking lot.

Now that the snow has melted away, trees are budding, the grass is getting greener and it's time for spring cleaning! Most businesses and residences do some spring cleaning inside. Everything from dusting off those shelves that have been compiling filth for the last four months to sweeping the floor behind the desk. When it comes to the outdoors, generally the lawn gets mowed and trimmed, we pick up some branches and debris around the yard and clean out the flower beds. The last step in this process is to clean up the pavement with the help of a Boise asphalt paving company.

When patrons come to your business, the first thing that they will see is the parking lot.  We all know that first impressions are very important and that they take time and serious effort to reverse.  If your parking lot looks unprofessional, has cracks, crooked lines or signage, or just plain looks old and outdated, what do you think your customers will assume about your business?

With winter coming to an end, there have been and will continue to be a few freeze and thaw cycles as the weather changes for spring.  Even though this has been a mild winter, the last few weeks have continually fluctuated between 30 degrees and 60 degrees.  Those cycles cause a few things that can be rough on your pavement.   Here are a few of the effects of the freeze and thaw cycles and the detriments they have on your asphalt.
