New asphalt typically takes 24-48 hours to dry enough for foot and vehicle traffic, but full curing can take 6-12 months. During this time, it’s essential to avoid heavy loads and sharp turns to prevent damage.

The best time for asphalt installation is during the warmer months, typically spring through early fall, when temperatures are consistently above 50°F. This allows the asphalt to properly compact and cure.

For residential driveways, a 2-3 inch thick asphalt layer is usually sufficient. For commercial parking lots and roadways, the thickness might range from 4 to 6 inches or more, depending on the expected traffic load.

With proper installation and maintenance, new asphalt can last 15-20 years. Factors affecting its lifespan include the quality of the installation, the climate, and the amount and type of traffic it endures.

The area must be properly graded and compacted to ensure a stable base. Any existing vegetation or old asphalt should be removed, and a layer of crushed gravel or stone is typically added to provide a solid foundation.

Common signs that your asphalt needs repairs include cracks, potholes, uneven surfaces, pooling water, and faded color. Regular inspections can help identify issues early.

Most cracks can be repaired, but the method depends on the size and severity. Small cracks can be filled with crack sealant, while larger cracks might require patching or more extensive repairs.

Pothole repair typically involves cleaning the hole of debris, filling it with a hot or cold asphalt mix, and compacting it to create a smooth surface. Proper compaction is crucial to prevent the pothole from reappearing.
