Many factors can contribute to the life of your driveway:

• Weather - severe cold and heat

• Wet ground conditions

• Sub-base of the driveway: We recommend a minimum of a 6" base material be installed

• Leaking fluids: oil, gas, antifreeze

• Drainage of the driveway as well as the landscape which surrounds the driveway

Maintenance and Care of your New Driveway

• Do not stop and turn wheels of car. Please make sure car is moving.

• Please do not drive cars on the driveway for at least 5-7 days.

• Do not park any vehicles over an extended period of time on the driveway for at least 14 days.

• Backfill perimeter of your driveway as soon as possible to prevent erosion.

• Avoid any large vehicles (i.e., oil trucks) on or across the driveway for at least 2-3 months.

• Watering or spraying of your driveway within the first 24 hours will help cool and cure the new asphalt.

• Sealing of your driveway (only if you wish to) should not be done for at least 1 year after installation.
