Sealcoating Companies FAQs
Repairing a driveway costs $850 to $2,600. Some modifications cost as little as $300 or up to $4,500, depending on the material and the total square footage of the damaged area. Filling and sealing cracks and painting typically costs the least, while repaving represents high-end costs.
Late spring until early fall is the ideal time for driveway installation. The warm days and cool nights during this time make it optimal for most materials to set—asphalt paving, for instance, benefits most from warm and dry conditions. Installing your driveway at the right time can improve durability.
To maintain your driveway, seal concrete every year and asphalt every few years to keep water from penetrating and cracking the surface. If there are developing cracks or noticeable deterioration, seal your driveway sooner to prevent deterioration.
Concrete driveways usually take one to three days, while asphalt driveways take about two days. Timelines also depend on the size and complexity of the driveway. Landscaping, custom designs, and other factors may add to the total time it takes to finish the project.
Driveways last an average of 30 years and require regular upkeep. While asphalt and concrete need yearly or monthly maintenance, gravel driveways require maintenance once or twice yearly.
