How to Seal Your Driveway description |

Many folks have asphalt or "black-top" driveways. They are smoother and cleaner than gravel driveways Many folks have asphalt or "black-top" driveways. They are smoother and cleaner than gravel driveways and, economically speaking, often get the nod over concrete. Sadly, asphalt driveways won't stay black and smooth for all time.
The forces of nature do their best to break down the surface and, unless your driveway is adequately maintained, cracks and potholes will appear. Grass will take over the edges and work its way through developing cracks. Freezing rain and snow will expand in the cracks to make them even larger. Excessive heat, ultraviolet rays and substances such as salt, oil, gas and grease all take their toll. Without protection, that beautiful black driveway could eventually become a lumpy, crumbling mess.
If you are willing to put forth some effort, you can prevent these things from happening by sealing, protecting and maintaining your driveway with commercially available products. In this How-To we'll give you some tips on repairing and maintaining an attractive asphalt driveway.
