What kind of driveway can be exposed to water right after installation?

• <div><p>Gravel is <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-driveways.htm">one of the few driveway materials</a> that can handle rain the second it’s installed. Unlike asphalt, which needs days to set, or concrete, which requires weeks to cure, gravel is ready as soon as it’s compacted. It’s naturally permeable, allowing water to drain straight through—with no risk of pooling or surface damage. Gravel driveways are one of the most affordable, at <b>$1 to $3 per square foot</b>, and can also last upward of 100 years.</p></div>

How do I know if the asphalt is fully cured?

• <div><p>When asphalt cures, it typically changes from a very dark black hue to a lighter, more matte gray color. Cured asphalt also won’t be tacky or sticky to the touch or emit any odors from the asphalt mix. Additionally, the surface of fully cured asphalt won’t deform under any pressure.</p></div>

How much surface does one ton of asphalt cover?

• <div><p>At a depth of two inches, a ton of asphalt covers around 80 to 100 square feet. However, the thicker the asphalt, the less surface area it will cover. That’s why measuring correctly is essential when estimating asphalt needs and costs to ensure you get enough material to cover your entire driveway, patio, or other asphalt surface.</p></div>

Should I seal my driveway or replace it?

• <div><p>If you notice minor cosmetic problems with your driveway, you should seal it. Look out for cracks and holes on the surface, faded asphalt or concrete, and stains from oil and other chemicals. Replacing your driveway may be necessary if you’re dealing with significant problems—¼-inch cracks, large potholes, and puddles from drainage issues. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-install-asphalt-driveway.htm">cost to install an asphalt driveway</a> typically ranges between <b>$4,200</b> and <b>$9,000</b>, significantly more than resealing. Consider talking to a professional to discuss whether resurfacing your driveway—a midway project between resealing and replacing—is a better option for you.</p></div>
