4 Reasons to Choose an Asphalt Driveway


Is your home in need of a new driveway? If you are searching for a reliable, long-lasting material which can also boost your home's curb appeal, look no further than asphalt. Here are four reasons why you should consider asphalt for your home's driveway.
  • Durability. When properly cared for, asphalt is one of the most durable materials on the planet. Unlike concrete, asphalt is not known for scaling, shrinking, or crazing. A well-paved asphalt driveway from Roccie's Asphalt can last upwards of 20 years.
  • Low Maintenance. One of asphalt's most attractive features is its low-effort maintenance. Sealcoating every two years and patching small cracks before they become problematic is all it takes to keep your driveway strong and healthy for decades.
  • Eco-Friendly. If you love the environment, you will be happy to find out that asphalt is 100% recyclable and is the most-recycled material in the country. The EPA estimates that almost 75 million tons of asphalt is recycled annually, saving billions of dollars each year.
  • Cold-weather Benefits. Those who live in cold-weather climates in particular should consider asphalt driveways for their homes. Asphalt is more resistant to subzero temperatures than concrete, which is known to crack and suffer from frost heaves. The deep black color of asphalt also attracts more sunlight, helping to melt snow and ice on your driveway faster.

For more than 50 years, Roccie's Paving has provided high-quality asphalt driveways and parking lots to homes and businesses in Fairfield County, CT and Westchester County, NY.
