If you are unsure whether asphalt or concrete is the right choice for your project, we’ll lay out some of the pros and cons.
Asphalt is most popular among home and business owners who are looking for an affordable pavement that is capable of meeting their needs. When deciding whether asphalt or concrete is the right choice for your pavement, there are a few factors to consider.
Asphalt has advantages and disadvantages compared to concrete, so consider the following:
Asphalt vs. Concrete Installation Cost- Asphalt is cheaper to install than concrete as it is cheaper per square foot. This is why many property owners prefer it over it’s more expensive counterpart: concrete pavements. What asphalt pavements sacrifice in durability is insignificant for most homes and facilities. If budget is a concern or the project is very large, asphalt may be the right pavement for your project. Asphalt driveways need to be sealed within six months to a year and can last up to 30 years if properly maintained. Concrete can theoretically last up to 50 years without a seal coat but will cost more for the initial installation.
Aesthetics- This amounts to personal preference, but it is worth mentioning that concrete will need to be sealed to maintain its aesthetic appeal. Concrete stains easier than asphalt, so some maintenance will be required to remove things like oil stains and preserve its finish. When it comes to crack repair, asphalt driveway repairs will blend into the original pavement, where concrete crack seals will stand out and diminish the look of the surface.
Climate- Here in Maryland, asphalt has an advantage in dealing with the winter weather. Concrete tends to crack and have frost heaving in the cold, which can affect maintenance costs and aesthetics if not properly taken care of. However, this can be mitigated with frequent maintenance, snow removal or a heated driveway system.
Maintenance- Compared to concrete, asphalt is incredibly cost-effective to maintain. With recommended maintenance, it will enjoy a service life as long as 30 years. Most asphalt maintenance is remarkably affordable as well. As mentioned above, asphalt needs to be seal coated six months to a year from the initial installation. To guarantee healthy asphalt pavement, you should continue to seal coat it every 2-4 years afterward. However, if your pavement’s aesthetic value is important to you, concrete will also need to be sealed and maintained.
Weather Resistance – Asphalt does a better job surviving the bitter Maryland winters. Concrete, by comparison, is more prone to frost heave and cracking during the colder months. With proper care and professional snow removal and ice management, you can maintain your asphalt pavement through the winter with little damage.
