Q: What kind of driveway can be exposed to water right after installation?

• <div><p>Gravel is <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-driveways.htm">one of the few driveway materials</a> that can handle rain the second it&rsquo;s installed. Unlike asphalt, which needs days to set, or concrete, which requires weeks to cure, gravel is ready as soon as it&rsquo;s compacted. It&rsquo;s naturally permeable, allowing water to drain straight through&mdash;with no risk of pooling or surface damage. Gravel driveways are one of the most affordable, at <b>$1 to $3 per square foot</b>, and can also last upward of 100 years.</p></div>

Q: What are the typical dimensions for a driveway apron?

• <div><p>The dimensions of a driveway apron vary based on local building codes, the width of your driveway, and the distance between the driveway and the road. On average, aprons range from 12 to 24 feet wide and 8 to 18 feet long. Typically, the end of the apron connected to the driveway matches its width&mdash;such as 10 to 12 feet for a single-car driveway&mdash;while the end at the street flares out to allow cars to turn in and out more easily. In some areas, you may not be responsible for the portion of the apron that extends beyond the sidewalk, but this depends on local laws.</p></div>

Q: How thick should an asphalt driveway be?

• <div><p>An asphalt driveway should be at least 3 inches thick over a compacted gravel base. Areas with poor drainage should have a thicker stone base. To <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-install-asphalt-driveway.htm">install a new asphalt driveway</a> over an existing driveway, the new asphalt should be at least 2 inches thick and the existing driveway should be in relatively good condition.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to replace a new driveway?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-pave-driveway.htm">cost to replace a driveway</a> ranges from <b>$8 to $15 per square foot</b>, depending on factors that include material, size, and labor. If your driveway has deep cracks, potholes, or drainage issues (or if it&rsquo;s simply past its prime), replacement might be the smarter investment over constant repairs. Resurfacing <i>can </i>be a cheaper alternative at $3 to $20 per square foot, but it won&rsquo;t fix your driveway&rsquo;s underlying problems.</p></div>

Q: Is asphalt milling better than gravel for driveways?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best to weigh the pros and cons of each material and decide on your priorities for your driveway. Gravel won&rsquo;t be an appropriate choice if your driveway experiences heavy traffic. You&rsquo;ll find that you need to level and top it off regularly, which could make the material a much more expensive option.</p></div>
