Mixing concrete in with gravel driveway

[@preppernaut4094]

I hope you do a follow up in a few months, I'd be interested in it. Good video!

Don’t hold your breath.

Had a hole in a dirt and gravel drive way where a small tree was pushed out ( young pine about 15 to 20 ft tall). Couldn't keep it filled. Filled it in for 2 yrs and would still come back. So, got the idea to fill it with some dirt and poured about half bag of of quickcrete over then watered it down real good. Problem sovled. Reappearing hole ceased to reappear! Lived there for 8 more yrs before moving and hole never did come back over the time i lived there.

You don’t need 8 bags. You need 800 bags. Or a concrete truck

[@nickpiscopo5]

An update video for all the people who are about to try to fix their affordable gravel driveways with concrete would be nice (:

[@Outbounddogs]

Thanks for the video, I’d love to see how it’s holding up!

[@JohnDoe-id9hi]

Purchase straight Portland cement, anything else is full of filler rocks, you already have the rocks. In Australia they use latex polymers for road stabilization, probably just floor wax tilled and packed down.

Concrete will just bust up in 2 pieces the first time you drive on it turn into dust

[@joecasalena8263]

I was thinking of doing the same thing but instead of the entire surface, do two paths about 18” wide x 4 inch thick, and place rebar or a 4x4 wire mesh to reinforce it…. Also use straight Portland cement if the local gravel is clean enough. Might be better if I dig the 18” path in a bit so it’s not sitting on top of the existing lane…your in a tight turn so a 18” path might be too narrow. Well I’m interested to see how it holds up. A lot will depend on how stable the ground is under that new concrete…it doesn’t like to flex.

I was just thinking about if this would work. And yup. Someone has tried it. Thank you!

[@Pajune]

That monster energy bottle cracked me up! Gotta get highdrated before the task, right on! How's the drive way holding up?

[@kosieS]

Any updates to the rest of the driveway?

[@MrBrucelindsey07]

Thanks for sharing!

[@JoJo-oo7zt]

I have a gravel driveway as well and have a hard time plowing the snow. I want to get a snow blower but I know the blower will spit the rocks out. But I want to rent a compactor and get a bunch of bags of sand and cement. My driveway is more leveled than yours and I don’t have any hills. Our winters in Montana can be brutal and they last a long time.

[@mommaoinnh2674]

Can it handle to be plowed with a foot of snow and not move all the rock?

[@liggitty4425]

Please do an update video

[@patrickjcarangelo587]

Great job on your information and video.😊

Should have used Portland, not quick Crete.

Great job

I’d be concerned about your lungs inhaling all this powder.

[@kerrib1474]

Good point. Siliceous…is real. Not as bad as asbestosis.. but still an issue. Respirator with HEPA filter would be recommended.

[@jejoko]

NO! DON'T DO IT. This is horrible when it comes time for maintenance. And yes that time will come no matter how much concrete you put on it. You are just making it much worse to maintain with chunks of concrete everywhere. Cut and grade your driveway once a year or fund someone that does gravel driveway maintenance and that can renovate your driveway with your existing gravel.

No no no bad idea

When you don't have the money to do it right but you still want to do something... even when it's worthless.

why is it worthless?

if you have to ask

@@georgea6403 If I have to ask ,and you don't have an answer, guess it might just work.

I mean, it does work, it's just a gravel supplement

[@muyoso]

@@bleumeanyontherampage2136 Because he has created like a half inch thick concrete slab over loose gravel that he is going to drive heavy trucks on. It will crack almost immediately and will then be loose large sheets of concrete.

[@Nttt739]

Right idea unsure why you didnt wet it and mix together????

[@IDAHOJAKE]

Cuz it’s quik set concrete. You don’t pre mix. Just water. But what he is doing will clump up and not be solid . Depends on amount used. I’m curious to see it now

[@Nttt739]

For some reason, I did not realize he wet it.

[@Defender_Tom]

Not everyone wants an asphalt driveway. Some people want gravel, even if they can afford asphalt, concrete, or pavers.

[@wingnutbert9685]

@@Defender_Tom Yep. I'd get a solid surface. But given my 1/4 km long and steep driveway, and that we get snow, I'm ok with gravel. Solid surface would be a schit show when icy.

To fix my place that washes out on a hill, the cheapest estimate was $6000. I make less than $1500 a month social security. I sorted and place aggregates by hand, used fines made of cheap torn bags of concrete mixed with hand sifted limestone fines. A dumpster dive piece of 4" conduit for a culvert pipe. I pretended I was a kid in a sandbox. Never washed out again.
