Asphalt soft and rutting? Here's why it happens in Sharonville heat.

You walk your parking lot on a hot July day in Sharonville. The asphalt feels soft under your shoes. You see tire marks and ruts where trucks have been. It looks like the pavement is melting. This is a real problem, and it won't fix itself.

Soft asphalt in hot weather usually means the mix wasn't designed for your traffic load. Heavy vehicles like delivery trucks press into the pavement when it gets hot. If the base underneath wasn't compacted right, the problem gets worse fast. Each summer, the ruts get deeper and water can pool, causing more damage.

Fixing this depends on how bad the damage is. A surface overlay with a harder mix might solve it if the base is still solid. If the base is failing, you need full reconstruction. The only way to know is to have a pro look at it. Abco Pavement Services offers free quotes, so you can get a clear answer without any commitment.

Don't wait until next summer. The ruts will only get worse. Call Abco Pavement Services to schedule an inspection. They'll check your asphalt and tell you exactly what you need, whether it's an overlay or a rebuild. With jobs like the Costco parking lot in Sharonville, they know commercial asphalt.
