Why Fall is the Best Time to Pave

As the seasons shift and the beautiful hues of fall begin to adorn the greater Manchester New Hampshire area, there's something else that should be on your mind besides pumpkin spice lattes: your driveway paving. While we at Batchelder Bros Paving LOVE paving driveways any time of the year, there's something special about doing it in the fall. Here's why autumn is the best time to pave:
    Perfect Temperature: Fall offers a moderate temperature, neither too hot nor too cold, which is ideal for asphalt. Hot summer temperatures can cause the asphalt to soften, making it less durable. On the other hand, in colder temperatures, the asphalt can harden too quickly, making it difficult to achieve a smooth finish.

   Stability Before Winter: Getting your driveway paved in the fall ensures that you have a stable and strong surface ready for the harsh winter months. A new and well-paved driveway can withstand the freeze-thaw cycles that often wreak havoc on older, damaged driveways.

    Reduced Spring Maintenance: By paving in the fall, you're giving your driveway ample time to settle and cure before the spring rains. This reduces the chances of potholes, cracks, and other damages when the spring thaw hits.

    Better Sealing: Fall is a great time for sealcoating, which protects the asphalt from the elements, especially the damaging effects of winter snow and ice. A freshly paved driveway in the fall means it's all set to seal, ensuring longevity.

    Setting the Scene for the Holidays: With the festive season just around the corner, what better way to enhance your home's curb appeal than with a freshly paved driveway? It not only looks good but also offers safer, smoother access for your holiday guests.
