Frequently Asked Questions

A properly installed asphalt driveway can last 15-25 years with regular maintenance like sealcoating and crack filling.

The time it takes to complete an asphalt project depends on the scope of the project and weather conditions. We provide an estimated timeline during our initial consultation.

Most driveways should be sealcoated every 2-3 years to protect the surface from water, snow, sun damage, and cracks.

You can drive on new asphalt after 48-72 hours, depending on the weather and temperature.

Asphalt millings are recycled asphalt that is compacted to create a durable and cost-effective driveway or road surface.

Asphalt millings can last 10-20 years when they are properly graded, compacted, and maintained. Because millings are made from recycled asphalt, they harden over time and create a strong, durable surface that holds up well for driveways, private roads, and parking areas. With proper installation and occasional maintenance, asphalt millings can be a long-lasting and cost-effective alternative to traditional asphalt paving.

Sealcoating helps protect asphalt from sun, water, oil, and cracking while also restoring the rich black appearance like a freshly asphalted driveway.

Resurfacing adds a new layer of asphalt over an existing surface that’s still structurally sound. A full repave involves removing the old asphalt, preparing the base, grading, and installing new asphalt from the ground up.

Regular sealcoating, crack filling, and keeping the surface clean will help extend the life of your asphalt.

Sealcoating helps protect the surface, but larger cracks should be filled or repaired first before sealcoating.

In many cases, asphalt can be installed over an existing driveway if the base is still in good condition.

Yes, sealcoating restores the rich black finish of asphalt and improves curb appeal while protecting the surface.

The cost depends on the size of the driveway, the condition of the base, and the amount of preparation needed.
