There are steps you can take to protect your concrete and asphalt surfaces during Oregon’s hot, dry summer weather conditions. Here are a few tips:
- Apply a Sealer: A sealer can protect your concrete and asphalt surfaces from the sun’s UV rays, precipitation, and other weathering elements. You can choose from a variety of different sealers, including acrylic, epoxy, or polyurethane.
- Keep Surfaces Clean: Be sure to regularly sweep and clean your concrete and asphalt surfaces. Dirt, debris, and other contaminants can cause significant damage over time.
- Avoid Heavy Loads: If you drive heavy vehicles or equipment on your concrete or asphalt surfaces, try to minimize their use during periods of extreme heat.
- Provide Shade: When possible, provide shade for your concrete and asphalt surfaces by planting trees or installing a shade structure.
By taking these steps, you can help protect your concrete and asphalt surfaces from the elements and extend their lifespan.
