The Baltimore paving market
Major port city; commercial and residential. Baltimore has a GeoNames population of about 622,000 and sits in City of Baltimore. Baltimore is itself one of the country's large metros, with a GeoNames population of about 622,000. It is the largest of the 8 Maryland cities in our directory.
Baltimore's paving season typically runs April–November (about 8 months). Campaigns should be live by February, 6 to 8 weeks before the April start, and Dec–Mar is for retargeting, early-bird sealcoating inquiries and lower-budget awareness. 6 other Maryland cities share this season.
Cold-winter climate: Freeze-thaw cycles create a post-winter rush of pothole, crack and surface-failure repair calls, and sealcoating can only start once overnight lows stay above 50 degrees.
