How to Maintain Your Asphalt Driveway

Your asphalt driveway is not just a functional element of your property; it's also a significant investment that adds value and curb appeal to your home. To ensure its longevity and keep it looking its best, regular maintenance is key. These are some essential tips for maintaining your asphalt driveway and preserving its beauty and durability for years to come.

• Regular Cleaning – Regular cleaning is essential to prevent the buildup of dirt, debris, and stains on your asphalt driveway. Sweep the surface regularly to remove loose dirt and debris and use a pressure washer or garden hose to rinse away any stubborn stains or spills. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the asphalt surface.
• Fill and Seal Cracks – Cracks in your asphalt driveway can worsen over time if left untreated, leading to water infiltration and further damage. Inspect your driveway regularly for cracks and contact our paving company to fill them promptly using a quality asphalt crack filler.
• Address Drainage Issues – Proper drainage is crucial for preventing water from pooling on your asphalt driveway, which can accelerate deterioration and lead to cracking and potholes. Ensure that your driveway slopes away from your home or garage to allow for proper drainage. Additionally, clear any debris from the edges of the driveway and install a drainage system if necessary to redirect water away from the surface.
