Decision Guide

Repair or Full Asphalt & Paving Replacement in Tea?

The rule of thumb: if repair costs exceed 50% of full replacement, the math favors replacement. Here's how that calculates locally.

Repair — When It Makes Sense

  • Issue is isolated — single failure point rather than systemic wear
  • Equipment/system is less than halfway through its expected lifespan
  • Repair quote is under $500 (less than 20% of full replacement cost)
  • Insurance claim approved for targeted repair only
Typical Targeted Repair cost — Tea
$200 – $500

Replace — When You Should Commit

  • System has surpassed expected lifespan or shows systemic failure
  • Multiple failure points — repair costs are recurring, not one-time
  • Repair quote exceeds $1,000 (50%+ of replacement cost)
  • Efficiency/code upgrades make full replacement financially smarter long-term
Full Replacement cost — Tea
$2,200 – $13,000

FAQs

Asphalt & Paving FAQ — Tea, SD

Sealcoating prevents UV oxidation and water penetration, extending asphalt life — but timing matters. New asphalt should wait 6–12 months before first sealcoating. After that, every 3–5 years is appropriate maintenance. You don't need it every year (a common upsell). If your driveway is gray (oxidized) rather than black and has surface cracks, sealcoating is overdue.

Rutting in tire tracks usually indicates the asphalt was too thin, the base was inadequate, or the asphalt was laid in hot weather on a weak base. Proper residential asphalt is 2–3" of compacted asphalt over 4–6" of compacted gravel base. If the contractor cut corners on base preparation or asphalt depth, this is a workmanship defect. Document and report to the contractor and your state's contractor board.

Asphalt quotes vary by: total square footage, depth of asphalt (2" vs 3"), whether base grading and compaction is included or assumed adequate, edge treatment, and whether old asphalt is removed or overlaid. Get the scope detailed in each quote — sq footage, asphalt depth, gravel base depth, removal of existing material. Comparing these numbers makes quotes apples-to-apples.

Walk on it: 24 hours. Drive on it with passenger vehicles: 72 hours minimum, 7 days recommended. Turning wheels in place (which gouges fresh asphalt): wait 30 days. Keep heavy trucks off for 30 days. Asphalt gets harder over time but is most vulnerable the first several weeks, especially in hot weather where it remains soft longer.

Some minor reflective cracking (following base cracks below) within 2–5 years can be normal in climates with freeze-thaw cycles. But widespread cracking within 2 years suggests inadequate base preparation, asphalt mix issues, or improper thickness. Alligator cracking (pattern of many interconnected cracks) within 2 years is almost always a base failure — a serious defect. Document with photos and contact the contractor.

Fill cracks annually with asphalt crack filler (liquid rubber for small cracks, cold-patch for larger ones) before water gets in. Water penetration in cracks freeze-expands in winter, accelerating deterioration dramatically. Keep a can of crack filler on hand and address cracks in fall before winter. Then sealcoat over the repaired surface every 3–5 years.
