With a paved driveway, there are no concerns of getting stuck in the mud on a rainy day. Not only are paved driveways practical, but they provide extra curb appeal to a home and add value if you ever want to sell your home.
There are different formulations of asphalt available for a variety of different paving applications. For example, a parking lot will have different requirements to a loading dock, and a paving expert will make sure the right kind is used.
For many years, builders imported asphalt from Europe, but in 1875, Edmund DeSmedt paved Pennsylvania Avenue at the behest of President Grant. DeSmedt used natural sheets of asphalt from the Trinidad Asphalt Lake, proving asphalt from the Americas was as durable as that from Europe.
A properly installed asphalt driveway can last 15 to 20 years if it is properly maintained. However, factors such as weather conditions, extra-heavy loads and shortcuts taken during construction can all cause premature wear and tear that can necessitate replacement or repair.
One of the first things many building contractors do is pave the building site. Why? It provides a firm platform for people, trailers and machines, reduces problems from dust and mud, and serves as a base course for final paving when the project is complete.
