Is it better to resurface or replace an asphalt driveway?

• <div><p>Whether you should resurface or replace your asphalt driveway heavily depends on its condition. If the foundation is solid and the damage is minor, resurfacing is your best bet because it’s more affordable and faster than replacing the driveway. But if your driveway has foundational problems and/or severe damage, like large, deep cracks and potholes, then it makes more sense to replace it. </p></div>

What if it rains after I seal my driveway?

• <div><p>Ideally, you should seal your driveway when there won’t be rain for several days, but at a minimum, there can’t be rain for at least 24 hours. If it rains shortly after you seal your driveway, the water can wash away the sealer and render your work useless. You’ll have to wait for your driveway to dry out and try applying again. Note that some sealers—like oil-based sealers or specialty fast-drying sealers—may cure faster. Ask your contractor for information on timing before the install, and if there’s rain in the forecast, postpone the job.</p></div>

Q: What are the signs that my asphalt driveway needs repair?

• <div><p>If your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/driveway-repair-should-you-patch-resurface-or-replace.htm">asphalt driveway shows cracks, potholes, or standing water</a>, it&rsquo;s likely time for a repair. Cracks, big or small, let water seep in, weakening the base and causing further damage. Potholes are a sign of this weakening process in action while standing water suggests your driveway has poor drainage, which can cause even more issues. You may also see warping or buckling&mdash;a sign of a compromised base layer&mdash;or sinking pavement. Spotting these signs early on can help you save yourself a bigger repair bill in the future. </p></div>

Dillion is the Man. Gave me a general quote over the phone and it was the price he charged for the job. The RV pad/driveway he created for us on my slopped yard is just what we wanted and then some. It is a beefy structure that should last way beyond our needs. He got it done as he said he would...
