Sealcoating and striping in Tahoe Swiss Village, a north shore pocket in the pines.
Asphalt sealcoating, crack sealing, and striping for Tahoe Swiss Village driveways and lots, from the crew that has maintained Sierra pavement since 1965. (530) 587-4161
Tahoe Swiss Village is a residential pocket on the north shore side, tucked into the pines off the lake road with its own small road network.
Communities this size live or die on shared-road maintenance. The individual driveways are manageable, but the access road serving everybody is the piece that carries the traffic and takes the plow.
Getting to Tahoe Swiss Village from the yard
Tahoe Swiss Village is reached along the north shore on Highway 28, the same run as the neighboring bays once you are down off Brockway Summit.
What Tahoe Swiss Village pavement is up against
Up in the 6,300s, plow traffic and snow load are heavier than they are down in town, and it shows in the wear pattern. Sealcoat gets scraped off travel lanes faster, edges take more abuse, and any raised crack lip becomes a target for the blade. Pavement at this elevation earns its life from crack sealing more than from its last coat.
Driveways and a shared road network, mostly under tree cover. Shade slows the drying and drops needles, so prep here takes longer than it does on an open lot and the schedule accounts for it.
Planning the work
The practical sequence rarely changes: cracks first, then the surface, then any striping. Sealing a surface while the cracks are still open leaves water a path underneath a new finish, which looks fine in September and does not look fine in May. We quote the pieces in the order they should happen.
Questions we get from Tahoe Swiss Village
Is my Tahoe Swiss Village driveway too small to bother with?
No such thing. Driveways are a large share of what we do, and small jobs get grouped efficiently on the schedule. The only thing that makes a small job hard is calling in late in the season.
Can you schedule Tahoe Swiss Village work around my tenants or guests?
Usually yes. Lots get phased so part of the property stays open, and driveways get timed to a gap between guests. Give us the constraints up front and we will build the schedule around them.
What should I be looking for on my Tahoe Swiss Village pavement each spring?
Walk it after the melt. Look for cracks you can slide a card into, spots where cracks have connected into a web, areas that pond water, and edges that are crumbling. Those four things tell us most of what we need to know.
