Ferndale, Michigan Parking Lot Paving & Concrete Services

Bordering Detroit in southern Oakland County near Woodward Avenue and I-696, Ferndale experiences cold, snowy winters, warm summers, and vibrant suburban-urban traffic around downtown shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues. Asphalt sealing deters cracks caused by freeze-thaw cycles, salt usage, and short but heavy storms on older feeder routes.

• Key Consideration: Winter salting plus repeated freezing expand unsealed edges if water lingers post-rain/snow in fissures.
• Local Tip: Patch small potholes each spring, preserving sub-bases under mid-summer dryness and significant commuter flow along Woodward.
• Seasonal Insight: Intense sun swiftly embrittles asphalt lacking sealcoating, leading to spiderweb cracks citywide in older roads.
• Environmental Factor: Infrequent storms flood older drains, loosening corners lacking drainage improvements in older districts.
• Safety Focus: Painted crosswalks protect pedestrians near downtown events, shops, and the Woodward corridor.
• Maintenance Timing: Late fall sealing readies roads for winter freeze-thaw damage and next summer’s moderate humidity.
