Read through our simple guide, and it will be clear to you how beneficial our services can be for the longevity of your driveway.
Regularly Clean The Asphalt
Doing a monthly deep clean of your asphalt driveway using soap and water is a great step toward maintaining your driveway. This will eliminate any unwanted dirt and grime from the asphalt. As well, it will remove any rust or grass fertilizer that poses the risk of staining your driveway.
If stains do appear on your driveway, use a commercial pressure washer to remove them. However, make sure not to pressure wash any cracks in your driveway to prevent any further damage.
Exploring options to help maintain the integrity of your driveway is a smart idea. Determine what you can handle, and when it is time to hire a professional.
Repair Small Cracks Annually
Every year, you should add asphalt driveway maintenance to your outdoor chore list. Inspect your driveway to look for any cracks that may have appeared over the course of the winter. Once a crack appears, if ignored, it can grow and become a larger hole.
We recommend repairing any cracks in your asphalt during the peak summer season when the air is dryer. This allows for the asphalt repair to seal properly.
Seal Asphalt Every Three Years
It is important to seal the asphalt on your driveway every three years to prevent water damage and prevent cracks on your driveway. This simple fix is cost-effective and can be performed efficiently by us here at Patch & Seal.
