The birds are chirping, the flowers are blooming, and the warm Tennessee sunshine is finally here! Spring has sprung in Nashville, and that means it’s the perfect time to start thinking about sprucing up your property. At R&R Paving, we know that a cracked or uneven asphalt driveway or parking lot can be an eyesore and a safety hazard. That’s why we recommend tackling your asphalt paving project during the spring and summer months. Here’s why:

Ideal Temperatures for Optimal Curing: Asphalt is a temperature-sensitive material. The ideal temperature for paving asphalt is around 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Spring and summer in Nashville typically offer consistent temperatures within this range, allowing the asphalt to cure properly. Proper curing ensures a smooth, durable surface that will last for years to come.

Avoiding the Freeze-Thaw Threat: Colder temperatures and winter weather can wreak havoc on freshly laid asphalt. The freeze-thaw cycle can cause the asphalt to crack and heave, leading to costly repairs down the road. By paving in the spring and summer, you avoid this risk and ensure a longer lifespan for your asphalt surface.

Smoother Sailing with Predictable Weather: Spring and summer in Nashville generally offer more predictable weather patterns with less rain and wind. This allows our paving crews to work efficiently and complete your project on schedule, without unexpected delays caused by downpours or strong winds.

Faster Curing Means Faster Use: Nobody wants their driveway or parking lot out of commission for longer than necessary. Warmer temperatures mean the asphalt cures faster, allowing you to use your newly paved surface sooner. Get ready for summer cookouts and backyard barbecues with a beautiful, functional asphalt driveway!
