Asphalt Resurfacing refers to the process of layering new asphalt over the existing asphalt or concrete surface. This method is a cost-effective solution to maintain the appearance and longevity of a driveway or pavement. Resurfacing old asphalt is more affordable than complete replacement or asphalt restoration. It's an ideal choice when the base layer is intact, and the surface layer is heavily oxidized.
The longevity of asphalt resurfacing depends on various factors, including weather conditions, traffic load, thickness of the new asphalt application, the condition of the sub-grade layer, and the quality of the drainage system. Generally, a well-executed asphalt resurfacing can extend the life of a driveway by 8 to 15 years.
The appropriate thickness for an asphalt solution varies based on the condition of the pavement or driveway. For areas with numerous cracks and seepage, a thicker overlay might be necessary. Typically, a conventional layer is at least 1.5 inches thick, while a thin overlay is usually less than that. For residential driveways with minimal traffic, a thickness of 2.5 to 3 inches is often sufficient.
The frequency of asphalt resurfacing is influenced by factors like weather conditions and the quality of the initial resurfacing job. It's recommended to undertake resurfacing work during warmer months when temperatures are above 50 degrees Fahrenheit. A professionally done asphalt resurfacing can last up to 15 years, so there's typically no need for a fresh application before that time.
The cost of driveway resurfacing depends on several factors, including the size of the resurfacing site, the number of repairs required, and the materials chosen for the project. Most companies charge based on the square footage of the resurfacing area, with prices starting at approximately $2.25 per square foot. On average, in the US, the cost for a 480 square foot driveway ranges between $2,900-$5,500.
