Butler Asphalt Paving Guide: Permits, Weather, and Local Pros

Butler has 2 paving businesses of its own on Main Street, so this hub also lists 6 real contractors based in Bakerstown, Chicora, Cranberry Township, Kittanning, Sarver and Tarentum, all within about 20 miles. This guide covers who to ask before driveway work at the street, and what NOAA weather records say about timing. We did not find a published Butler cost figure, so there is no price table here.

City permits and the public right-of-way

Paving that stays entirely on your own lot does not touch the public right-of-way, but a curb cut or work in a City street does.

City permits. The City of Butler posts its permit forms online, and City Hall is at 140 West North Street (see City of Butler Forms). Ask the City which form applies before a crew cuts a curb.

State roads. If the driveway connects to a state highway, PennDOT says a Highway Occupancy Permit must be obtained first (see Driveway Projects Connected to State Highways Require a Permit).

Butler weather and the best time to pave

The closest long record we use for Butler is NOAA's 1991 to 2020 climate normals for the Butler 2 SW station, about 1.8 miles from the city center. It averages 43.2 inches of precipitation a year over about 90 days with a tenth of an inch or more. June is the wettest month at 4.3 inches and February the driest at 2.7 inches. No month is reliably dry here, so plan on watching a short range forecast rather than a season.

July highs average 82 degrees and January lows average 17. The station logs about 7 days a year at 90 degrees or hotter. It averages about 140 nights a year at or below freezing. Normal snowfall is about 34.9 inches a year. Freeze and thaw cycles open small cracks into potholes, so cracks are worth filling before winter.

For sealcoat, SealMaster's guidance is 50 degrees and rising for 24 hours with no rain likely. At this station average lows stay at 50 or warmer in June through August. Hot mix paving is easiest when the ground is warm. Months with average lows of at least 40 and highs of at least 60 run May through September.
