As we’re moving through January, it’s important to start thinking about some ideas and things you want to conquer in February especially in regards to your driveway as the weather will start to get a little warmer giving you some time to conduct inspections for damage. Here’s why February is the best time to plan for repairs:
- Winter Damage is Most Visible: By February your driveway has been through most of the harsh weather. It is in this harsh weather that many issues arise such as cracks, pitting, and uneven sections. Identifying these problems in February can allow you to fix them before they worsen in the spring.
- February Gives You Time to Plan and Budget: Driveway repairs are an investment, but they can be costly. February gives you an adequate amount of time to prepare financially by comparing repair options and requesting estimates without pressure.
- Prepare for a Strong Start to Spring: A damaged driveway can affect curb appeal, safety, and even your property value. Planning repairs in February means that your driveway will be ready to go when the snow melts and there will be fewer safety hazards from cracks or uneven surfaces.
