When should I replace my asphalt driveway?

• <div><p>Even with regular maintenance, most driveways don’t last much longer than 30 years. Alligator cracking is a clear warning sign that your driveway’s foundation is failing, and cracks that are deep and wide can let water in, causing more damage. Standing water is another red flag. If your driveway doesn’t drain properly, it’s going to degrade slowly. Finally, if you’re seeing dips or uneven patches, that’s a sign the base layer or soil is shifting. If these issues pop up, it’s <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/driveway-repair-should-you-patch-resurface-or-replace.htm#:~:text=Replacing%20the%20driveway%20is%20necessary,20%20years%20with%20proper%20maintenance.">time to replace your driveway</a>.</p></div>

How do I know if the asphalt is fully cured?

• <div><p>When asphalt cures, it typically changes from a very dark black hue to a lighter, more matte gray color. Cured asphalt also won’t be tacky or sticky to the touch or emit any odors from the asphalt mix. Additionally, the surface of fully cured asphalt won’t deform under any pressure.</p></div>

Q: How can I increase the lifespan of my driveway?

• <div><p>The best ways to increase the lifespan of your driveway are to carry out proper maintenance and get repairs done quickly. First, reseal your driveway every one to three years to protect it from the elements. If you start to notice significant cracks, hire a professional to diagnose the problem before it gets more serious. You can also use sand instead of salt when de-icing your driveway (since salt is corrosive) and clean your driveway annually using a pressure washer to keep it in tip-top shape. </p></div>

Q: Is milled asphalt eco-friendly?

• <div><p>Yes, using recycled asphalt millings is an eco-friendly alternative compared to concrete. Millings are reclaimed pieces of gravel that are recycled into aggregate that can be used on driveways, patios, walkways, basketball courts, tennis courts, and more.</p></div>
