Interlock Driveways vs. Asphalt: Which is Better for Toronto Homes?

Your driveway is more than just a place to park — it’s the first impression of your home. Homeowners in Midtown Toronto often ask: Should I choose interlock or stick with traditional asphalt?


Here’s the breakdown:

  • Curb Appeal: Interlock offers endless design options and boosts property value, while asphalt is plain but functional.

  • Durability: Properly installed interlock can last 30+ years. Asphalt usually needs resurfacing every 10-15 years.

  • Maintenance: Asphalt needs sealing every few years; interlock might need occasional re-sanding but allows for easy repairs — replace a stone instead of repaving the whole drive.

  • Drainage: Interlock can be permeable, helping manage runoff in Toronto’s wet seasons. Asphalt contributes to water pooling and runoff.


If you want a long-term investment that complements your landscaping, interlock is the clear winner.
