Why Install Concrete Driveways?

Many homeowners take advantage of concrete driveways. Its versatility and durability make it one of the most cost-effective ways to improve a property's overall look and function. A concrete driveway that is beautifully designed and installed can increase curb appeal. It also can expand parking space for visitors. In addition, its easy maintenance, combined with its strong resistance to weather conditions, chemicals and everyday wear over time, saves money from having to replace it. 

Homeowners who choose driveways made of concrete also benefit from a longer life expectancy. A concrete driveway can last 20 years or more with the right installation procedures and post-installation sealants. In addition, installing a concrete driveway is an affordable, low-effort choice with exponentially long results. Thus, making it an option worth considering.

Concrete Driveway vs Asphalt Driveway

When deciding whether to install a concrete or asphalt driveway, there are a few things to consider. First, driveways made of concrete are durable. They are made to last for many years with minimal maintenance. But concrete is more expensive upfront than other options. Meanwhile, asphalt driveways are slightly less expensive. But, they require more upkeep and usually need repairs like asphalt patching or application of asphalt sealant. 

When it comes down to where you want to focus your budget, you may either invest in an initially more expensive concrete driveway that requires less maintenance or choose an asphalt one with a lower upfront cost that needs continual care. 

Concrete Driveway vs Gravel Driveway 

A concrete or gravel driveway is a great way to add a touch of style and elegance to your property. A concrete driveway is incredibly durable and long-lasting. You can also customize it to include any design you like. While the initial cost may be slightly higher, concrete will last many years with minimal maintenance. Thus, making it a cost-effective solution in the long run. Gravel driveways, however, offer an economical option that requires low upfront costs and easy maintenance. They are excellent if you live in an area where you expect heavy snowfall. Gravel driveways provide excellent traction in all weather conditions. The downside is that they are not as long-lasting as concrete. In addition, maintenance costs can be expensive.

Signs You Need To Repair Your Existing Driveway 

If your driveway is not working as efficiently or aesthetically as it once was, consider driveway repairs. Whether you need minor concrete repair or the entire driveway needs replacement, we are here. Maintaining your driveway well will save you from future costly repair costs. 

A few signs show that your concrete driveway already needs some TLC. These signs include:

Small Cracks 

It may not seem like a big deal if you are seeing a few small cracks in your existing driveway. But, it is a sign that further damage will likely occur unless you take action soon. Failing to repair these minor issues can be costly; allowing the cracks to worsen could lead to a complete overhaul of your driveway, something much more expensive than just a few repairs! Prioritizing the health and stability of your driveway now can save you a lot of money and hassle down the road.

Large, Deep Cracks

Cracks in your driveway can be an eyesore. They can become more than just cosmetically unpleasant when you do not correct them. When driveway cracks grow larger and deeper, they can cause instability and create a safety hazard for anyone who uses the driveway. Call an expert immediately if you notice any large, deep cracks in your driveway. 

Standing Water 

Standing water collecting on your residential driveway could be a sign that there is an underlying problem with it. Whether large puddles or continual dampness, standing water can cause significant damage to your driveway. The pressure from vehicles pushing down on a wet surface can create cracks and deep holes. If you do not treat it, standing water may also increase weeds and plants' growth on the surface. It causes further deterioration in the structure. Regularly inspect your driveway for signs of water accumulating. Contact a professional who specializes in driveway repair. We can review the issue and determine whether it needs restoring or replacing. 

Uneven Driveway Surface 

Uneven surfaces and broken pieces of concrete can lead to more serious issues. First, avoid future damages by assessing the current condition of your driveway. Then, take steps towards repair if necessary. Finally, have a professional examine your damaged driveway for further insights. 

Crumbling Driveway

Large chunks of pavement missing from your driveway is another sign that your driveway needs repairs. Crumbling driveways can put a strain on your car's suspension. They are also quite unsightly and detract from the appearance of your home. If you see cracks or divots forming on the pavement of your driveway, it is essential to address these problems as soon as possible. By doing so, you can minimize any risk of further damage. 

Discoloration

Any driveway can take a beating over the years. Exposure to extreme weather conditions, wear and tear from vehicles regularly driving on it, and spills such as oil stains can cause discoloration. The discoloration is another common sign that it is time for driveway repair. Leaving it as it is can reduce the curb appeal of your property. 

Best Time To Repair Your Concrete Driveway

The best time to repair your driveway is spring or summer. This ensures that repairs have time to dry and harden before cold weather arrives and temperatures dip below freezing. Also, it is vital to schedule repairs before nights set in. It will allow ample time for the concrete to cure and minimize safety risks associated with a newly constructed surface. Working alongside an experienced concrete contractor can help ensure that we complete the project quickly and do the repair job right. You can avoid further issues down the line by taking care of any necessary driveway repairs. You can also make sure your driveway is safe for use year-round.
