What are the main alternatives to recycled asphalt for my driveway?

• <div><p>If you’re looking for a similar, eco-friendly driveway material, you might consider one of these options:</p><ul><li><p><b>Permeable pavement:</b> This material is sometimes called “pervious” or “porous” pavement; it allows stormwater to drain into the subbase, eliminating storm drain costs. </p></li><li><p><b>Gravel:</b> Consider paving your driveway with locally sourced gravel. By sourcing from a nearby source, your money won’t fund international shipping and will be invested back into your local community.</p></li><li><p><b>Natural stone pavers:</b> Because natural stone pavers are made from organically-produced stone, there’s no new manufacturing required, limiting the environmental impact. In addition, water easily flows and drains through the gaps in the pavers.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Can I install my own driveway?

• <div><p>You should not attempt to install your own driveway. Whether working with asphalt or pavement, this is a complicated project that requires special equipment. Talk to some <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/asphalt-companies/">nearby asphalt or paving professionals</a> and discuss your particular needs—it’s a good idea to get a few quotes and look at the company’s past work.</p></div>

Q: What are the main alternatives to recycled asphalt for my driveway?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re looking for a similar, eco-friendly driveway material, you might consider one of these options:</p><ul><li><p><b>Permeable pavement:</b> This material is sometimes called &ldquo;pervious&rdquo; or &ldquo;porous&rdquo; pavement; it allows stormwater to drain into the subbase, eliminating storm drain costs. </p></li><li><p><b>Gravel:</b> Consider paving your driveway with locally sourced gravel.

In addition, water easily flows and drains through the gaps in the pavers.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What type of driveway is best for adding value to a home?

• <div><p>Concrete driveways add the most value to your home because they last longer and have a better aesthetic appeal. However, depending on your climate, asphalt may be preferable as it handles freezing temperatures and high heat better than concrete.</p></div>

Q: What is the typical lifespan of interlocking pavers?

• <div><p>If installed correctly, interlocking pavers can last up to 50 years. The lifetime of your paver patio greatly depends on one thing: its foundation. If you rush through this step or cheap out on materials, your patio&rsquo;s lifetime will be significantly cut short. Hire a pro if you&rsquo;re not 100% sure you can pull this off.</p></div>

Q: Should I winterize a newly installed driveway?

• <div><p>You should contact your driveway installer before winterizing a newly installed driveway. Winterizing it before the asphalt or concrete has fully cured can damage the driveway. But in many cases, you don't need to winterize a newly installed driveway anyway since it's likely freshly sealed and won't have much damage yet. </p></div>
