Benefits of Installing a Concrete Driveway On Your Property
If you recently bought property in a rural area and you want to replace the old driveway with a more functional design, consider using concrete. There are many advantages of using concrete instead of other types of materials.
Unlike gravel, it isn’t difficult to maintain. You won’t need to spend time weeding and refreshing the top layer with new material every few years. It also lasts longer than certain materials, like asphalt.
When correctly installed and maintained, a concrete driveway for a rural property can last up to 40 years.
For high quality driveway resurfacing and installation, contact our Boca Raton pavement service today. If you’re not yet sold on the idea of a concrete driveway for your rural property, here are four reasons it’s a great investment.
Durable Material
Concrete may have a higher upfront cost than other materials, but thanks to its durability and longevity, it’s a smart investment. As long as you adhere to proper maintenance techniques, your driveway can last between 30-40 years.
Contact our Boca Raton pavement service to professionally maintain your driveway. With our expert work, and the durable nature of concrete, you won’t have to worry about replacing your driveway anytime soon. You can worry less about common problems when you install and properly maintain a concrete driveway.
To begin with:
- Large cracks
- Potholes
- Drainage issues
- Sunken base
- Loosened stones
Neglect and climate are a driveways two worst enemies. While you can’t control the weather, you can prevent your driveway from enduring years of neglect by contacting the team at Trinity Asphalt for annual maintenance and necessary repairs.
Easy Maintenance
While on the topic of maintenance, we briefly mentioned how easy it is to maintain concrete – this translates to less time caring for it throughout the seasons, including hurricane season. If you don’t want to spend a lot of time resealing and cleaning your driveway, concrete is the way to go.
That being said, it is still important to properly maintain it.
A driveway that isn’t professionally installed and maintained can easily hurt your overall look. In rural areas, houses are typically a good distance away from the main road, so fewer people will see your driveway – but you and your family see it every day.
Those small cracks you’ve recently noticed are going to become a huge eyesore, not to mention a costly repair if you continue to neglect it. There are some DIY maintenance techniques you can apply yourself, such as:
- Trim roots to prevent cracks developing because of nearby trees
- Fill cracks with a high-quality crack filler
- Install a drainage system to prevent excess water buildup
If there are any issues you can’t handle on your own, contact our Boca Raton pavement service to handle them. We service everywhere in South Florida: from West Palm beach to Delray Beach, Boca Raton to Davie, and Loxahatchee to Pembroke Pines.
Made of Renewable Resources
Concrete is made of renewable resources, like stone, sand, and cement. Furthermore, it can be recycled and reused, which reduces resource depletion. This is a step in the right direction, but it’s important to note that even when construction companies reuse it, combining old concrete with new material, it still takes up a lot of energy to produce.
Curb Appeal
When living in a rural area, you have few neighbors and, again, you probably live too far from the main road for anyone to properly see your driveway. Nevertheless, you can see it every day, and if it doesn’t match the aesthetic look of your home, that can become a nuisance.
From color to style, the driveway makes a significant difference to the general theme of your property.
When it’s finally time to sell the property, will your driveway catch the attention of buyers, or will it look like a costly renovation they can’t be bothered with?
Concrete is a versatile material that can be designed and installed to blend with the overall look of your property, and when it’s time to sell, can often appeal to most people’s tastes.
