What is an overlay and is it appropriate for my needs?
An asphalt overlay consists of paving over existing asphalt with 1.5″ to 2″ of new asphalt with minor cracking or poor surface appearance. We do not recommend overlays for severely cracked or very uneven asphalt, as reflective cracking will undoubtedly occur. Our experienced salesmen will be able to determine whether or not an overlay would be appropriate for your drive or lot. Overlays are obviously a less expensive alternative to replacement, but can only be expected to last 10-15 years, as opposed to 25-30 years for new asphalt.
