How do I decide whether to keep repairing and seal coating my driveway, or think about getting it repaved?
A.16 If you are unsure of what to do I would first call an asphalt maintenance company and ask for a free evaluation and estimate. They will normally give you good advice. If your driveway is beyond their help they will tell you that in hopes of securing your business after you have repaved. Many of them have products to give your asphalt a whole new look at a fraction of the cost of an overlay, or tear out and replace driveway. Once you have their advice, and estimate in hand, you may want to call a couple of pavers for their estimate. Make sure that you are comparing apples to apples when it comes to paving. Unlike proposals can be confusing, and what is the cheapest price is not always the best deal.
