About Pavement Solutions

February in Richmond has a trick to it: a bright thaw at noon, water running off the roofs and across the pavement, then a hard refreeze after sundown that leaves a sheet nobody sees until they're standing on it. Pavement Solutions spends the season ahead of that trick — pushing the accumulation off first, then treating the surface so the melt has somewhere to go and the morning arrives without a slip. Out past the oak savanna at Glacial Park the prairie grass stands stiff and pale under the crust, and the same cold that draws that picture is the cold that turns a lot into a hazard. Snow removal here is one part muscle and one part timing. The payoff is a surface that looks unremarkable at eight in the morning — dark, dry, wide open.
