Another solution to restore a pavement's surface is to apply an overlay. Because the overlay is a new layer applied to the existing asphalt, each time this procedure is performed it raises the height of the pavement. Think of it like repainting the walls in your home. Do it enough times, and you'll need to chip the old paint off first.

Also keep in mind that the surface on which you are paving may influence your decision. Paving on a firm, stable, well-draining crushed aggregate base might be given more leeway than a thin asphalt overlay. Raining or not, new pavement must be placed on a firm, unyielding base. Critical ideas to keep in mind when dealing with rain:
