Choosing the perfect driveway can not only add style to your yard but value to your home. With a wide variety of options, how can you know what to choose? Below are just some of the options you should consider when installing a new driveway or repaving your current one:
Gravel
Cheap and quick to install, gravel is common throughout the U.S., and with a wide variety of color you can customize it to your liking. If you live in an area with a considerable amount of snow, gravel isn’t for you as shoveling can be difficult. It also creates dust and requires a refresh every 1 to 5 years.
Concrete
Concrete
Durable and cost-effective, concrete comes in a wide array of styles and is ideal for all areas of the U.S. with barely any upkeep. The downside? Stain such as tire marks or oil can be hard to remove.
Brick
If you are looking for a bold yet elegant choice, brick is the way to go. It will also boost the resale value of your home and can last up to 25 years. However, it is one of the most costly surfaces.
Pavers
Pavers
Most aesthetically appealing, pavers are readily available with a large selection and low maintenance cost. Installation can be expensive, and if replacements are ever needed, it might be hard to find a match.
Asphalt
Asphalt
Affordable, pliable and has a better freeze and thaw cycle than other material, asphalt is a popular choice. It also can aid in melting snow. It does require more upkeep than other options, but the cost is minor.
