What this service includes
Every driveway repair project from Maisano Brothers Inc. covers the work that makes the result last.
Crack filling and sealing
We clean and fill working cracks with hot rubberized crack sealant to keep water out of the base.
Pothole repair
We square up failed areas, remove loose material, and patch with compacted hot-mix asphalt.
Patching and infrared repair
We repair localized failures and blend patches into the surrounding surface where possible.
Surface resurfacing (overlay)
When the base is sound, we can apply a new asphalt overlay to restore a worn surface.
Drainage corrections
We address the standing-water issues that cause repeated failures in the same spots.
When this service makes sense
- You have isolated potholes or cracking but most of the driveway is sound.
- Cracks are widening and you want to stop water from reaching the base.
- The surface looks worn but the underlying base is still stable.
- You want to extend the life of the driveway before committing to replacement.
- A failed section near the garage or apron needs attention.

Should I repair or replace my asphalt driveway?
Repair makes sense when the base is stable and damage is localized. Replacement is the better value when cracking is widespread, the base is failing, or you are repairing the same areas year after year. We give an honest recommendation during the estimate.
How much does driveway repair cost?
Repair cost depends on the type and extent of damage. Crack filling and a few patches cost far less than resurfacing or replacement. We provide a clear written quote after inspecting the driveway.
What causes potholes in a driveway?
Potholes form when water gets into cracks, reaches the base, and freezes and thaws. The base weakens, the surface loses support, and traffic breaks it apart. Sealing cracks early is the best prevention.
Can you patch just one section of my driveway?
Yes. We routinely repair isolated potholes and failed sections. We will tell you if the surrounding pavement is likely to fail soon so you can plan ahead.
Will the repair match the rest of the driveway?
Fresh asphalt patches start darker and blend over time as the whole surface weathers. Sealcoating afterward gives the driveway a uniform appearance.
