How big should a driveway apron be?

• <div><p>The size of your driveway apron will vary based on your town's building codes. On average, they range between 12 and 24 feet wide and eight to 15 feet long. One end of the apron usually matches the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/driveway-width-guide.htm">width of the driveway</a>—10 to 12 feet wide for a single-car driveway—while the street end flares out to allow cars to turn in and out.</p></div>

Do asphalt companies also do tar and chip paving?

• <div><p>Many asphalt companies have experience with tar and chip paving, but not all. The process is unique enough—and not incredibly common enough—that you may have to look around for a tar and chip specialist. However, speaking with a driveway company is a great place to start, especially if they have experience with multiple materials.</p></div>

Q: How can I increase the lifespan of my driveway?

• <div><p>The best ways to increase the lifespan of your driveway are to carry out proper maintenance and get repairs done quickly. First, reseal your driveway every one to three years to protect it from the elements. If you start to notice significant cracks, hire a professional to diagnose the problem before it gets more serious. You can also use sand instead of salt when de-icing your driveway (since salt is corrosive) and clean your driveway annually using a pressure washer to keep it in tip-top shape. </p></div>

Q: Does a paved driveway add value to a home?

• <div><p>A paved driveway adds <b>$5,000 to $7,000</b> to the value of your home. That&rsquo;s because it increases your curb appeal and the functionality of your outdoor space, which appeals to potential buyers.</p></div>

Q: Is asphalt the same as tarmac?

• <div><p>Asphalt and tarmac are not the same thing. Traditional tarmac, short for tarmacadam, uses tar as a binder to hold crushed stone together. Asphalt uses bitumen&mdash;a byproduct of crude oil&mdash;to bind aggregate. Though tarmac was once a go-to for roads, asphalt has become the modern standard. And these days, most surfaces referred to as &ldquo;tarmac&rdquo; are actually asphalt. So, while the names may overlap, the key distinction lies in the binder&mdash;tar for tarmac and bitumen for asphalt.</p></div>
