Bring Back the Brilliance of Your Asphalt Paving
Asphalt paving is a popular choice among homeowners and business owners for its cost-effectiveness and durability. However, various factors can reduce the lifespan of your driveways, sidewalks, patios, parking lots, and other paved surfaces.
Our team at NVN Pavers is prepared to lay new asphalt pavement in New Jersey, ensuring proper installation to maximize longevity. Nevertheless, routine repair and maintenance tasks are crucial in maintaining the attractive appearance of your paved surfaces.
Understanding the Causes of Cracked Asphalt Driveways
To effectively remedy cracked asphalt driveways, it’s important to know the potential causes, which can include:
- Excessive moisture
- Extreme heat
- Ground movement and natural factors
- Aging asphalt
Excessive moisture can wash away the pavement base and gravel, causing the surface to shift and crack. Sun exposure can cause the asphalt to melt, leading to depressions and weakened pavement. Natural factors such as earthquakes, storms, frost, and seasonal ground movements can also impact the integrity of your asphalt. Aging asphalt loses flexibility, making it more prone to cracking.

Despite asphalt’s limited lifespan, you can extend its life through proper maintenance and repair. It’s crucial to have your asphalt installed correctly by professionals like NVN Pavers to minimize the likelihood of premature cracking and degradation.
Some effective asphalt paving repair and maintenance routines include applying the right asphalt sealant to seal cracks and prevent water seepage, and patching potholes with new asphalt. Finding the right paving contractor for the job is essential for the best results.
