You might be surprised to learn that it is not necessarily the harsh cold temperatures that can negatively impact your asphalt surface. It is actually the freeze-thaw cycle that happens continuously all winter long.

I scream, you scream we all scream for construction themed pumpkin design templates! While all the other houses on your block have the same fang-tasticly spooky pumpkins your house can have a unique and boo-tiful roller truck and Wolf Paving logo design!
With the rough vehicle fuel economy, people are trying to cut back on driving. This is easier said than done. Here's some good news though, and it may make you rethink how you feel about road construction. Smooth pavement lowers a vehicle's fuel consumption and extends the life of the road by minimizing tire bounce and load impacts - which adds up to cost savings for you in the end.
Spring in Wisconsin means longer days, blooming bulbs, baseball...and potholes.
Potholes are caused by the same science that makes a can of soda explode in your freezer - the expansion and contraction of water. Ground water gets under the pavement, expands when frozen, and contracts when it melts. The expansion bends and weakens the asphalt, and the contraction leaves gaps behind where the pavement can collapse and create a hole. This is why potholes multiply in spring as the ground thaws.
Here in Wisconsin, we know how important it is to get repairs and maintenance done before the winter weather hits. Once the snows start falling, it's virtually impossible to do any outside work, especially once the temperatures head below zero.
