General rule: if your driveway is under 15 years old and damage is limited to surface cracks and a few potholes, repair and sealcoating at $659-$2435 is cost-effective. If the driveway is 20+ years old, has widespread alligator cracking, significant base failure, or drainage issues, full replacement at $2841-$8119 is the better long-term investment. A licensed Moon paving contractor can assess this for free.

Sealcoating a Moon asphalt driveway every 2-3 years is the standard recommendation. New asphalt should be sealed after 6-12 months (once fully cured). Sealcoating fills surface oxidation, blocks UV damage and prevents water infiltration — the main cause of freeze-thaw cracking in Pennsylvania's climate. At $284-$964 per application, regular sealcoating is the most cost-effective maintenance you can do to protect your $2841+ driveway investment.

In Pennsylvania, paving contractors should carry a valid PA Home Improvement Contractor (HIC) registration for residential work, plus general liability and workers' compensation insurance. When hiring in Moon: verify their HIC registration number; ask for a certificate of insurance naming you; get at least two written estimates with material specs; check Google reviews and the BBB. Our network includes only pre-screened, licensed and insured Moon paving contractors.

Late spring (May-June) through early fall (September-October) is ideal for asphalt paving in Moon — temperatures above 50°F are required for proper hot-mix asphalt compaction and curing. Avoid paving in winter or when rain is forecast. Many Moon paving contractors book up in summer, so scheduling your free estimate in early spring ensures preferred timing. Sealcoating should be done when daytime temps are consistently above 55°F.

For a residential driveway in Moon, the standard is 2-3 inches of compacted hot-mix asphalt over a 4-6 inch compacted gravel base. The base is as important as the asphalt — a properly compacted gravel base prevents settling, cracking and drainage issues in Pennsylvania's frost-prone climate. Driveways used by heavy vehicles (trucks, RVs) should have a thicker asphalt layer (3-4 inches). Our Moon contractors provide material specs with every estimate.
