As the temperatures rise and winter becomes a memory, April is the perfect time to schedule your driveway paving project. At Whittaker’s Paving Pros, we’ve been helping homeowners across Southwest Virginia create strong, beautiful driveways since 1988—and we know firsthand that spring is the sweet spot for getting it done right.
Here’s why spring is the best time to pave your driveway—and why acting now can save you time, stress, and money later.
🌤️ 1. Mild Temperatures = Ideal Paving Conditions
Spring offers the perfect mix of warm days and cool nights, which helps asphalt set properly. When asphalt is installed in moderate temperatures, it’s easier to work with, compacts smoothly, and cures evenly—giving you a stronger, longer-lasting surface.
Cold weather can cause asphalt to cool too quickly, while summer heat can make it sticky and harder to finish cleanly. That’s why April hits the sweet spot for asphalt work in Roanoke, Salem, and surrounding areas.
⏳ 2. Get Ahead of the Summer Rush
Many homeowners wait until summer to book their driveway paving—and that means longer wait times and packed schedules. By planning your project in April, you’ll beat the rush and likely get more flexible scheduling and faster service.
At Whittaker’s Paving Pros, we often see a spike in calls by late May. Book now and your driveway will be done just in time for outdoor season—no delays.
❄️ 3. Fix Damage Left Behind by Winter
Virginia winters can be hard on your driveway. Freezing and thawing cycles cause cracks, potholes, and surface wear—especially if your pavement is older or unsealed. Spring is the best time to repair that damage and prevent it from getting worse.
Whether you need a full repaving or just patching and sealcoating, our team can assess your driveway and recommend the best solution.
🏡 4. Boost Your Home’s Curb Appeal This Season
A freshly paved driveway adds instant value and visual appeal to your home—just in time for spring gatherings, houseguests, and more time spent outside. Whether you live near the water in Smith Mountain Lake, in the rolling hills of Daleville, or downtown in Salem or Roanoke, a clean, even driveway gives your property a polished look that lasts for years.
