Good eye. I ran a paving crew for several years so one thing I can say is it’s hard to control 8 guys 😂 if I had a dime every time I did my job and 4 others and then did my final walk around and found a boot print or something stupid like that 🤬 Over all they did a nice job definitely above average.

The company I used to work for, we used to do it with an old paver for base and finish grade stone... which we call 304 and 411 limestone here in Ohio. But we wouldn't do it with the same paver for paving a drive for fear of stone getting caught somewhere and ending up in the mat to dig out, fill in and rake leaving a seedy spot. Doing it the way they do it, isn't much worse than running asphalt through it, but definitely want a clean hot screed to start so I wouldn't recommend it.

@velvetjones
@velvetjones 5 жыл бұрын
@@dztrbdgod asphalt is going to crack no matter what. However you can minimize it and make it last a lot longer by starting with a good base. If you want it to last as long as possible 18 to 24 inches and it needs to be compacted. When I say compacted I mean using a heavy roller not driving small equipment over it. I don't know how deep the base is but I would guess it's maybe 6 to 10 inches at most and since it wasn't fully compacted it's going to flex and move around a lot. It will settle in spots and the freeze/thaw cycles will move the base around quite a bit. When I say settle I mean the cars parking and driving on top of it will flex the asphalt and compact the base beneath. The asphalt will spring back but the gravel under it wont. That means there is a spot for water to sit between the asphalt and gravel that will freeze and expand causing it to crack. If you want a driveway to last you need a really thick base that is compacted very well. If the base is compacted well enough there is nothing under the pavement to move and allow cracking. Keep in mind that you need drainage along with a solid base or you will get a lot of water that will freeze and expand, nothing in the world can protect against that. The asphalt also needs to be about 4 to 6 inches thick since it's not going onto an already paved surface. Asphalt has a lot less strength than concrete and can flex much more so you need to start out with a thicker layer on fresh construction like this than if it was being laid over a surface that had already been laid. If you already had a good surface there you could most likely get away with a skim layer 1 or 2 inches thick and call it a day. The cost of doing it right would probably be double what the customer paid for this job. That is why nobody does it because it costs a heck of a lot more to do the job right the first time and 99% of people would rather save a little money and let the next homeowner deal with it. Meanwhile they can advertise "new driveway just laid down" when they put the home on the market or if they are using it as a rental property for a while. My parents neighborhood went through a plague of this over the last 20 years. Homeowner has a terrible driveway and spends $3000 to $4000 to get it "redone" and then they sell the house. Then 2 or 3 years later it's cracked all over and hunks are falling off the sides. My parents had their driveway dug out and fresh concrete put down and it was around $20,000 but it will last another 40+ years with nearly zero maintenance. Some of their neighbors have had to have their driveways dug out and repaved after 5 years because it wasn't done right the first time. The autobahn in Germany has an extremely thick base layer underneath it and the concrete is several feet thick. That is why 70 years later cars are still driving over a pretty smooth surface at 100+mph. You get what you pay for and putting the time and money in on the front end saves a lot of maintenance through the years. This job would likely be fine for 5 to 10 years if they would have compacted the base properly before they laid down the asphalt even as thin as the asphalt was laid. As it was done I agree 100% with tripjet999 in 12 to 24 months there will be a lot of huge cracks and grass growing in them. Asphalt is fine for paving but it costs less than concrete for a reason. It needs a lot more maintenance over its lifetime or it won't last. I have no problem with them and would have an asphalt driveway myself but it would have a thick, well compacted base and a good thick layer of asphalt. By the time I have spent enough money to do it right I might as well spend a few thousand more and use concrete then I don't have to worry about maintaining the asphalt. If I did that job there would have been about 24 inches of base that was compacted properly and 6 inches of asphalt. You would still need to clean and seal it every few years but it would be much more resistant to cracking and should last 15 or 20 years. Asphalt is petroleum based and will break down over time no matter how well you maintain it. The important thing is starting off the life of the driveway correctly so you don't have to spend that money (and more) every year down the line trying to keep it from falling apart because you didn't want to open the wallet from the start.

They have super fancy nice trucks, small paver like a Leeboy 8500, nice trailer and rollers. But yeah they rip people off all of the time and homeowners don't know any better! Like they tell them they are going to lay an inch and a half "loose" and then when compacted, they end up with an inch and a quarter, which like you said, in a few months it is breaking up or by next spring at the lastest.

Only thing I would do differently is to get the roller on there as soon as possible. The plate tamper and roller should be in the garage and breaking down 30 seconds after the paver pulls off the pad. Absolutely no reason to leave the first matt unrolled until the second matt is done. Obviously leave a foot unrolled to match the seam but leaving the asphalt unrolled for longer than a couple of minutes is crazy to me. Unless it's 110 degrees outside?

I am 65 and started paving Helping My Dad in Our Family business when I was 15 earlier than that unofficially. It is hot work and hot material. Those short pants that are popular with Tweaker’s are OSHA violation’s. Those poor guys must not get paid much. One of them couldn’t afford a decent belt to hold up His pants or maybe He just has hips like Cochise. I agree with another comment that using the paver to lay base material is not the wisest thing to Do. If You don’t mind replacing expensive part’s often and contaminating the asphalt mix with residual base material and fines then Do it. The base should be dampened throughout its depth. If it is dry existing or dry imported, wetting it while working it to its finished grades and slopes will facilitate proper compaction. Over wetting can cause it to become muddy , requiring time for excess moisture to evaporate out. I like the comments from people all over the world. I am not a Jet setter. Few People in the asphalt paving business are. It is very competitive. If I went on a vacation to another Country I would enjoy watching other people do theis work or even participate. Don’t get too sensitive about My Prior Remarks either, they go with the territory when working on paving and construction Crews. In paving there are many variables and methods. Aggregates and mix designs can vary by geographical location and the geology of available materials . There are different grades of asphalt oil used in Hot Mix Asphalt Concrete. The methods and types of asphalt will differ from those used on Highway projects , commercial parking lots and secondary roads. In some area’s far from Hot Mix Plants , slow curing materials are used. They are made like regular Hot mix where the aggregates and sand are heated in a giant drum like a cement mixer with a giant torch burner roaring through its center. After the aggregates and sand are heated the oil is injected and is drawn into the mix by capillary action. The Heat keeps the material “ plastic “ and Workable. As it cools it becomes harder to work , blend ( make seamless joints ), roll and compact properly. There are emulsifiers in the oil that help with the heat in keeping it workable for a a few Hours on warm days . Cooler temperatures means transporting , laying and finishing ( shaping and compaction) more quickly. Hotter days are more forgiving and l am writing a book. The Asphalt Institute is a good source and reference for anyone in the trade . There is no substitute for experience.Even those with Engineering Degrees can and should learn from the old timer common laborer’s who have spent their lives doing this work. Even among competitors we have shop talk and attend seminars. I am not a Cat Salesman but swear by the brand , I have used and own many other brands and if You know what Your doing You can make anything work. I worked with a old guy who had graded roads using a mule drawn grader that was operated by turning large metal wheels that turned gears that raised and lowered the cutting edge and adjusted the pitch while He shouted Gee , Ho and Yeah to the team.

Is there such a thing as a "floating" driveway? I'm about to have my driveway paved and I notice dirt with a bit of stone in it. I ask the contractor, "where is the crushed stone?" He tells me that the asphalt will be laid over the top of the dirt and stone, as a floating driveway. I never seen such a thing.(?)

Now when said about the Cat roller having better compaction with the tires, that's not the purpose of a rubber tire or pneumatic roller, its main purpose is to squeeze the heat out of the mat, by not only the weight of it but the rubber absorbs the heat so the steel drum rollers can compact it, the asphalt has 3 temp ranges when to breakdown, compact, and finish.

I can’t get a straight answer. I go to many different websites. My driveway just got re-paved today they say I can drive on it in 24 hours but other websites are saying I have to wait four days or even longer. Tomorrow is trash day and I’m afraid to walk on the payment to bring my trash down to the end of the driveway.

I have a contractor that has a paver that lays down the asphalt, and while the paver is sitting in my driveway waiting for the rain to stop, I notice a layer of oil in the bed of the paver where the asphalt is going to be. Is this going to create a problem for the asphalt to asphalt to adhere to itself and maintian a quality layer?

looking at the reveal at the garage door looks like you only put down maybe 1 1/2 ''@ the door and went to maybe 2 1/2''.. . waste more time and money using a skid steer to put the black top into the paver??!! Back the truck into the paver and JUST DUMP IT!! What reason would there be to not have roller in garage so it can get on the 'ash fault'right away.?. the joint looks like azz! No key cut @ the road to tie it in??? The edges of the driveway they obviously let the black top roll down over the item 4 and tamped it to make it look thicker !! MY FAVORITE PART IS AT 18:59 you can see his boot leaves an imprint in the ash fault (lol) meaning there is no way that it is compacted !!! The roller left lines all over!! ...this is like gypsy paving 101... dumb!! We would be embarrassed to do a job like this !! anyone looking for a black top company probably should find someone else... just my .02
