Asphalt Driveway Repair

Step 1: Inspect cracks. If weeds are growing out of them, pull them and clean all cracks with strong spray from a garden hose or pressure washer.

Step 2: Apply plain white vinegar from your pantry to problem areas. If the crack is deep, fill it to about 1/4″ from the surface with sand, and tamp it down.

Step 3: Apply crack filler – Hot Pour or Cold Liquid Pour Asphalt Fill. Make sure that it won’t rain the day you are repairing, otherwise you waste your time and money.

Step 4: Allow time for the Fill to cure. Allow for 24-48 hours to cure completely, and be sure to block off your driveway during that time!

Step 5: Apply asphalt sealant such as Coal Tar Sealer.

Keep in mind, however, for any cracks that are deeper than 2 inches, you should consider consulting with an Asphalt Repair Professional.

Hopefully following this priver should get your driveway on the right track!
