Asphalt concrete ages and embrittles much faster than a "lifetime".

So-called sealing is many times more expensive than new asphalt per pound
applied. It is not a cost-effective way to extend life, since at best it
treats only the surface.

Well because of a sewer issue, the line qwill ultimately need
replaced, so I priced a new driveway.

about 3 grand and it was $1300 new in 1985.

now lets imagine replacement in what 20 years?

3000 bucks will buy a LOT of sealer, and besides it looks so good
every time its done

Obviously you dont want to bother sealing and thats fine its your
money to waste
