RECOMMENDATIONS FOR DRIVEWAY CARE

l. Do not park your car on the driveway for at least 3 - 4 days. The entire layer of asphalt generally needs 7 days to cool thoroughly.

2. Hose down the driveway during hot weather to cool it down.

3. To avoid marking the surface, be careful not to turn the car wheels while the car is stationary on the driveway during hot weather.

4. It is not recommended that you seal your driveway for the first 3 months as it takes the tar and oils in the asphalt that long to evaporate or solidify. After the first three months it is recommended that you seal your driveway with an asphalt based sealer annually.

5. Before placing any sharp object on the asphalt, place a sheet Of plywood underneath object to prevent marks. Nortown Paving & Construction Inc. will not be responsible for unknown subgrade Conditions or damage to unknown pipes, wires, etc. Under or near driveway.

6. Every Spring, cut grass 6 inches from the edge of driveway.

INFORMATION ON CONCRETE WORK

Yes- concrete does crack.

We do not like it either but in most cases, it is bound to happen. This is why we install crack control joints where the concrete is most likely to crack. If the concrete cracks in these control joints, this is exactly what we had hoped for. We do everything we can to control cracking, but there is NO GUARANTEE that concrete will not crack in other places. Cracks that are 3/16” of one inch or less (in height or gap) are considered normal and are within industry standards. Colour shown on chart can vary slightly. Conditions that will cause variation are inconsistent slumb ( water ratio Content ), Finishing and curing methods, weather conditions, concrete raw materials & colour. Above guidelines are based on recommendations listed in "A Guide to Residential Driveway Paving", published by the Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations.
