It depends on the size and shape of the driveway, whether old asphalt or concrete has to be removed, how much base work the soil needs, the asphalt thickness, access for equipment, and any apron work at the street. Because those factors vary so much, we don't post prices. A free estimate lays them out for your driveway. See new asphalt driveways.
Hot-mix asphalt is made at a plant and laid while it's hot, and in central Ohio most paving happens from spring through late fall. Cold ground and cold air make asphalt hard to compact properly, so winter paving is rare. Sealcoating has its own window and needs dry, warm days. Calling early in the season helps with scheduling.
If the base is solid and the problems are surface wear and scattered cracks, resurfacing is often a good value. Widespread spiderweb cracking, sunken areas, recurring potholes, or pooling water usually mean the base is failing, and a new layer on top will crack again. A pro can check the base and price both options so you can compare.
Many homeowners reseal every few years, once the surface starts to turn gray and the stone texture shows through. Sealing too often builds up layers that can flake. New asphalt needs time to cure before its first coat, and cracks should be filled first because sealer won't bridge them. More on sealcoating and crack filling.
