Q: Do asphalt driveways crack?

• <div><p>Like all driveway materials, asphalt can crack in the wrong conditions and with age. Many things can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-causes-concrete-and-asphalt-driveway-cracks.htm">cause asphalt to crack,</a> including shifting soil or settling under the foundation. Other common causes are driving oversized vehicles on the asphalt, tree roots, and using rock salt during the snowy season. Proper installation and sealing the driveway every 10 years can help prevent cracks.</p></div>

Q: Which is better, asphalt or concrete?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-and-cons-asphalt-vs-concrete-driveway.htm">Asphalt and concrete have their pros and cons</a>, but it really depends on your priorities. If you&rsquo;re looking for durability, concrete&rsquo;s your best bet, lasting up to 50 years with minimal upkeep. Asphalt, on the other hand, needs more TLC with regular resealing but is cheaper to install and easier to repair. Concrete also wins in curb appeal and resale value, offering homeowners more customization. But if you&rsquo;re looking for quicker, more affordable installation, asphalt has the advantage. Ultimately, your decision should align with your budget, willingness for maintenance, and design preferences.</p></div>

Q: Does a paved driveway add value to a home?

• <div><p>A paved driveway adds <b>$5,000 to $7,000</b> to the value of your home. That&rsquo;s because it increases your curb appeal and the functionality of your outdoor space, which appeals to potential buyers.</p></div>

Q: Do you need a permit to build your own driveway?

• <div><p>The answer to whether or not you need to get a permit before you start your driveway can vary widely based on local ordinances and the scope of your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/driveway-ideas.htm">driveway ideas</a>. In most urban and suburban areas, a permit is needed before building a new driveway to ensure that a homeowner is using safe materials and proper drainage practices while designing and constructing a new driveway. In some rural areas, a homeowner may not be required to apply for a permit. When building a new driveway on your own, always check with your local building department to see if you need to request a permit. When hiring a driveway contractor, verify that the right permits are being used before driveway construction begins.</p></div>

Q: How long will a driveway last?

• <div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-an-asphalt-driveway-last.htm">lifespan of an asphalt driveway</a> ranges from 15 to 30 years, while concrete driveways last between 20 and 30 years, depending on several factors. Extreme temperature changes, cold weather, poor maintenance, and heavy traffic can all shorten the lifespan of your driveway. Be sure to reseal your driveway regularly to protect it from the elements and give it the best chance at a long lifespan.</p></div>

Extremely well. This job involved extremely large and heavy tree removal in the middle of a mature azalea bed and very close to my home with no driveway or roadway close. They performed the work on time and with NO damage to the house, the lawn, or the azalea bed. Impressive!
