What does snow do to asphalt?
Do you own a Northern Virginia business? Don't let snow destroy your asphalt!
Winter is here, and with it comes snow! After a long winter, you might be surprised to find some of the following signs of snow damage on your roads and parking lots:
- Crumbling around drainage areas and manholes
- Bigger, longer cracks than before
- Alligator cracking
- Potholes
- Snowplow scraping damage
The constant expansion/contraction cycle happens over and over again all winter, widening small cracks into bigger, longer ones. It often weakens the pavement enough to cause crumbling and potholes. Don't let this happen to you!

Cracks and potholes will not fill or repair themselves. In fact, they will only get longer—and more expensive—if they are left alone. We have custom hot asphalt mixes and sealants that can quickly repair smaller holes and cracks before they get out of hand and require more in-depth repairs. Contact Espina Paving about our asphalt repairs and installations, at (703) 491-9100 today!
