Thanks Jenny concrete basically needs no maintence, is resistant to gasoline and oil spills, and lasts longer. asphalt is far cheaper, but not as good. however oil leaks dont make nasty looking stains on asphalt |

Thanks Jenny Jen-Jen, better take a refresher of your ESL course before you post again ;-) If good English skills were required in here, half the group would be kicked out, and it would be the half that knows the important stuff, so please develop a little tolerance for those struggling with English as a second language. |

That's all well and good. Ya know, I'm a camper and outdoorsman but when I'm indoors, I don't stab my food with knife to pick it up to eat it or take a dump with my ass hanging over a downed log or low branch and wipe with dried leaves..... |

When I had an asphalt drive way this resealing was the most nasty job around the house.

Just fill in the cracks with crack sealer to keep the water/ice out of it. When water turns to ice it spreads the crack. -- Blattus Slafaly *ف ٣ * * ![]() - Show quoted text - no, sealing it every year would seem to be a waste, but this driveway hadn't been sealed for quite a while, and there are quite a few patches that had gotten to the point where little black colored gravels were coming loose. sealing fixed that, i'll see if the 25 year guarantee holds up. |
