Asphalt and Driveway Resurfacing in Shreveport, LA
Driveway resurfacing in Shreveport: a new layer of asphalt over a driveway or lot whose base is still solid. It looks and drives like new for much less than a full tear-out. Call (318) 216-6124 to find out if yours qualifies.
Driveway resurfacing in Shreveport: when an overlay works
Resurfacing (an overlay) works when the asphalt has aged on top but the stone base underneath is still firm: the surface is grey, rough and full of small cracks, but it has not sunk or broken into potholes. We clean it, fill the cracks, fix any soft spots, apply a tack coat and roll a new layer of asphalt over the top. Where the new layer meets the garage or the street we mill the edge so it stays flush.
When resurfacing is the wrong fix
If the driveway has sunk, holds water or shows alligator cracking over large areas, the base has failed. An overlay on a failed base cracks again within a year or two. In that case replacing the driveway or repairing the failed areas first is the honest answer, and we will tell you on the visit.
If the surface is still black and tight, sealcoating is enough for now.
Asphalt resurfacing cost in Shreveport, LA
