After looking at your yearly budget, you may end up having some leftover money. If you’re looking for something to spend that money on, you should look into the future and protect your driveway by getting some upgrades for it. Here are some upgrades you should consider:
- Drainage Improvements: Poor drainage is a major cause of driveway failure. To improve your drainage you could add drainage channels and regrade to redirect the way water flows down your driveway.
- Edge Repair and Reinforcement: Damaged or crumbling driveway edges often worsen in the winter. You can use some of your spare money to reinforce edges to prevent breakage and improve durability during snow removal.
- Crack Filling: Small cracks may seem harmless, but overtime they can become bigger and create major damage. Filling cracks helps to stop water infiltration, prevent spreading, and is cost-effective.
