Important Issues for Municipal Paving Projects

3 Things You Need to Know about Municipal Paving Projects
1. Experience Paving for Municipalities
Your short list of Northern Virginia municipal paving contractors should have already had good experience paving for municipalities in the past. You should be able to review past projects from other municipalities so that you know how the contractors handled the job, from start to finish. The paving contractor should be able to manage a large-scale project from start to finish and demonstrate the ability to stay on time and on budget. Espina Paving has 30 years of experience in the commercial, industrial and municipal paving industry, so we know what it takes to do the big jobs. In fact, here is a video showing how we did a full-depth replacement of a long stretch of road in the Town of Vienna, Virginia (Tapawingo Road):Video: Town of Vienna, VA: Full-Depth Paving of Tapawingo Road
2. Large-Scale and Industrial Paving Experience
The best municipal paving contractor will have a wide-range of paving experience for large paving jobs. Again, reviewing each contractor’s past jobs will provide valuable insight into the company’s ability to manage large-scale paving projects and complete them to the customer’s satisfaction. One comparable type of paving project that municipalities can look at is paving for homeowners’ associations. These are generally large-scale projects for entire neighborhoods that serve many residents and people traveling through. On Espina Paving’s testimonials page, the president of one of the many homeowners’ associations that Espina Paving has worked for commented that: to discuss your town’s needs.Customer Testimonial
Espina Paving always responded to my inquiries in a timely, informative and thoughtful manner. Joey is the consummate professional. In August 2014, Espina milled and paved one of our roads. Joey was there from the beginning to the end of the process. We were very pleased with the work performed by Espina. In the future, when additional work is required for our community, we will not hesitate in utilizing Espina Paving for our major asphalt needs.

3. Follows Environmental and Storm Water Regulations
With changing laws, codes and public concern about environmental quality standards, it is essential to choose a municipal paving contractor that not only understands these requirements, but has demonstrated an ability to meet and exceed all environmental regulations, particularly as to the quality of storm water runoff. Espina Paving is extremely concerned about the environmental impact of all of its jobs and has adopted environmentally-conscious paving practices, including porous asphalt surfaces. This type of asphalt surface actually filters stormwater runoff so that it is far cleaner when it reaches Northern Virginia streams and rivers. In addition, Espina recycles nearly all of its materials and uses recycled materials, with the latest technology, to install cleaner, stronger pavement in all of its jobs while drastically reducing the need for landfill space. That’s something everyone in town can feel good about!
