Recognising the Signs of Driveway Damage

To ensure you repair your driveway on time it’s important to identify signs that indicate your driveway is in need of attention stat! Here are some common indicators:

  • Cracking: If you notice cracks forming on the surface of your driveway, it’s crucial to address them promptly. Cracks can be caused by various factors, such as fluctuating weather conditions, oil or de-icing salt. EZ Street Ambient Asphalt’s products are designed to help repair these cracks efficiently, preventing further damage.
  • Potholes: Potholes pose risks to vehicles and pedestrians. When left unattended, they can worsen over time due to the expansion and contraction of the driveway. EZ Street offers a simple and effective solution to fill potholes and restore the integrity of your driveway.
  • Drainage Issues: Improper drainage can lead to water accumulation on your driveway, weakening the asphalt over time. Addressing drainage problems is vital to prevent further damage. EZ Street’s professional-grade solutions can help you tackle such issues effectively, ensuring a durable and long-lasting driveway.

By taking proactive steps to avoid future damage, you can save both time and money in the long run. One of the most effective strategies is regular cleaning. Keeping your driveway free from debris, leaves, and dirt not only enhances its appearance but also prevents these materials from breaking down the asphalt surface over time. Additionally, using gentle cleaning methods and avoiding harsh chemicals can preserve the protective sealant on the asphalt.

Regular inspections are a fundamental aspect of preventive maintenance. Routinely walking your driveway and checking for early signs of damage, such as small cracks or surface wear, allows you to address issues promptly before they escalate. Quick repairs can prevent minor problems from turning into major headaches.
