A well-maintained and attractive driveway completes the overall look of your home or building. While your driveway is going to look pristine after construction, issues can start appearing without proper maintenance. If your driveway is starting to look worse for wear, it may be time for refurbishment by resurfacing, repairing or seal coating your driveway.
Staining is a common issue, with oil spots creating a less than pleasing appearance of your once immaculate driveway. It’s best to treat oil spots as soon as they appear, over time they can eat away at the binders of the asphalt mix and cause damage to the surface. Treatment doesn’t have to wait for a professional either, commercial de-greaser, water and a broom are all you need to start removing oil spots., just be sure to wash off the de-greaser as well.
Cracking can occur when asphalt driveways enter the latter part of their lifetime. Sealing cracks yearly is the best way to mitigate long term damage and avoid a small problem becoming a big one. The key issue with cracking asphalt is that it allows moisture to enter the which then expands the space underneath the surface, leading the cracks to widen further. Seal coating is another preventative measure for cracking in your asphalt driveway and will slow down the deterioration of your driveway overall. With proper ongoing maintenance, your driveway will only need to be seal coated every 3-5 years.
