Not sure if your driveway needs a full repaving or just a few repairs? You’re not alone. At Whittaker’s Paving Pros, we help homeowners across Roanoke, Salem, Smith Mountain Lake, Moneta, and Daleville make the best decision for their homes and budgets.

Here’s how you can tell what your driveway really needs:

1. Surface Cracks and Fading? Repairs Might Do the Trick

If your driveway has small cracks, minor surface wear, or fading color, sealcoating or crack filling may be all you need. These services restore the look and protect the surface from further damage.

2. Large Cracks or Drainage Issues? Consider Resurfacing or Repaving

If your driveway has multiple large cracks, uneven areas, or pooling water, it’s likely time to resurface or repave. These signs point to deeper structural issues that quick fixes can’t solve.

3. Age Matters

Asphalt driveways typically last 15–20 years. If yours is nearing the end of its lifespan, it’s smarter to invest in a new surface rather than patching up problems every year.

4. Safety and Curb Appeal

A damaged driveway isn’t just unsightly—it can also be a tripping hazard. If you’re constantly dodging potholes or dealing with loose gravel, repaving can improve safety and increase your home’s value.
