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>

Q: What is the most eco-friendly driveway sealer?
