New Asphalt Driveways & Resurfacing in Fort Smith, AR
Past a certain point, sealing a failing driveway is painting a sinking ship. Overlay or rebuild is the honest quote.
An overlay adds a new asphalt lift over the existing surface and works when the base is still sound. A full rebuild replaces everything down to fresh base rock, and it is the answer when the old driveway is heaved, sunken, or alligatored across large areas.
The tell in any paving quote is compaction and thickness: how thick the lift, what base preparation, what equipment. Two-inch quotes and three-inch quotes are not the same product at different prices; they are different products.
New driveways & resurfacing questions
What is the difference between an overlay and a full rebuild?
An overlay adds a new asphalt lift over the existing surface and works when the base is still sound. A full rebuild replaces everything down to fresh base rock and is the answer when the driveway is heaved, sunken, or alligatored across large areas.
How do I compare asphalt driveway quotes honestly?
The tell is compaction and thickness: how thick the lift, what base preparation, what equipment. Two-inch and three-inch quotes are not the same product at different prices; they are different products. Ask each contractor to itemize the lift thickness and base work.
When is it time to replace rather than keep repairing a driveway?
Past a certain point, sealing or patching a failing driveway is painting a sinking ship. If the surface is heaved, sunken, or alligatored across large areas, or the base has failed, an overlay or rebuild is the honest quote. Ask for that assessment before you sink money into more maintenance.
