From patching numerous cracks in concrete to filling potholes in asphalt, investing in the same driveway repairs time and again might only provide a temporary fix to a more serious problem. According to the professionals at Billy S. Young’s Blacktop Paving in Greenville, VA, paving the installation will eliminate these concerns while adding beauty and value to a property. Below, Augusta County’s premier paving contractors share further insight into the perks of a paved driveway. 

3 Reasons to Invest in Driveway Paving

1. Increase Curb Appeal

When a driveway is left in serious disrepair, it can make the entire property facade look dingy and unkempt. During the paving process, each level of the driveway is carefully prepared, including the base, intermediate layer, and final coat, to ensure it is even and free of imperfections. When the job is done, the sleek surface will make your house and yard appear newer and more well-kept.   

2. Raise Property Value

During installation, contractors examine the moisture retention capacity of soil and how the temperatures in your area and additional factors impact the condition. With a solid foundation, thick layers of paving materials can be applied to improve drainage and prevent pavement cracks and additional problems. If you ever put your house on the market, a paved driveway could boost property resale value, as it’s one less investment the new owner will have to make. 

3. Reduce the Need for Frequent Repairs

The initial cost of having your driveway paved will pay off down the line. The thick layers can withstand the weight of heavy loads, so you won’t need as many expensive, emergency driveway repairs. Regularly washing away oil residue and dirt and sealcoating the installation every two to five years should keep it in top condition and prevent premature wear.
