Black Diamond Asphalt Seal

About Black Diamond Asphalt Seal

In Elk Rapids the water sits on both sides — Elk Lake behind town, Grand Traverse Bay out front — and come winter it gives back what it took all summer, in bands of snow that can whiten a clear afternoon in twenty minutes. Black Diamond Asphalt Seal works that weather: plowing drives and lots, clearing walkways down to the pavement, and throwing salt in the shaded corners where ice likes to settle in and stay. Near the harbor and the mill pond the snow falls wet and heavy; a mile inland it comes dry and drifts. Both get moved. A cleared lot on a gray February morning in a village this pretty is a quiet kind of hospitality, and it is worth doing right.
