As asphalt driveways deteriorate over time, there are certain signs that indicate a need for replacement. The most common signs of an aging asphalt driveway include cracking, potholes, and/or sinking. If left unchecked, these issues can become more severe and can eventually lead to more expensive repairs.

Cracks in asphalt driveways are one of the most common signs that it’s time to replace your driveway. Cracks may start small, but they can quickly grow larger and lead to further damage. If left untreated, these cracks can turn into potholes as water seeps through them and further deteriorates the surface.

When potholes begin to form on your asphalt driveway, it’s a sign that the asphalt is too worn out for repairs. Potholes can cause damage to vehicles and are most commonly caused by water eroding away at an already weakened surface of asphalt.
