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>
