Great video to learn from. I am planning to resurface our old asphalt driveway soon. It measures out at 1060 sq ft so it looks like 10 tons of recycled material should work. I can rent a driving roller from a local shop, but looks like I will also need a tractor w a bucket too so I will check into that. Thanks Chris!

Always good to watch you work . Craftsmen for sure .happy 4 th

Thanks for the cost break down.

Great Info dryway 👌

Thanks a mill, appreciate the knowledge

Cool video, don't find much about asphalt millings on KZfaq.

Good stuff bud

Nice work. Company with the machine down doesn't realize the customers they are pushing away.

Good

Millings for life...

Millings are $FREE.99 up here in PA if you find a crew working near you. I drive for a big paving company and I’m constantly giving millings away to nearby farmers since it’s closer than driving to the plant. You did a real good job here.

SO FUNNY WATCHING THAT HEAVY EQUIPTMENT MACHINE BUZZING AROUND LIKE A CARTON. HE'S SUPER HANDY WITH IT!!

This was very helpful, I don't want to sound over-gratuitous but I cannot for the life of me find anyone doing asphalt millings over base stone. What more, I'm looking someone showing how it's done to use asphalt to create 10-16 inches of lift, over a base layer, in a low area of a pre-planned driveway so that a surface layer can go on top of that once the lift, and the drain channeling that I just put in proves itself, say as a project for next year to finalize this drive road. Not one

My driveway is hard packed sandy soil that my heavy trucks and trailer do not rut. I added a french drain in front of my garage and was thinking of building up the driveway to raise it a little to help direct the water to the lawns. How thick do you lay it, and what do you think of using a box blade? I don't have a FEL...

If it helps anyone, I just had my driveway done with the fine crushed mill at approx. 3000 sq. feet for $4500.00 down here in central Texas.

Great video! Have you used millings on a driveway with a steeper slope? I’m wondering if it would work on mine or will it loosen and erode on the steeper part....

That's some VERY nice sub base for 5$ a ton.

Good information video, but ooohh my good that music is killing me even the dogs running away.

Can you add base material underneath and add the millings on top?

I prefer a 25 ton roller for the final touch

Geez for what people are quoting me here in sc I could fly you out n purchase u all new equipment and pay you labor and still come out cheaper!

Is there any driveway fabric under this? Do you recommend using the fabric?

Hi Chris, we just had 3 people come and give us estimates to asphalt our driveway. 3 different prices for 1100 - 1270 sq ft and processes. Which way would you recommend, one guy said remove asphalt install 3 in of crushed stone compact base and install 3.5 inc type C asphalt, $5600, (2nd )paving, state top grade of gravel. Driveway edged weeded low areas refilled hot tack over old asphalt 2 1/2” State mix will be laid and rolled $7500. So question what’s the better process overlay or removal. (P.s. the overlay guy stated the drive is old and it’s settled already)

Would you reccomend an asphalt sealer or would that not work with the millings? Thanks

are those 3 1/4 rock with sand?

roll that 2 and finish with the chopped asphalt rolled and compacted....cheap equipment rentals and it wears like iron.

1970's called and said they want their theme music back. O_o

Thanks for what you do. My question is, what does this driveway look like now 2yrs later. I work fora small town in Wyoming that does it's own paving. Contract the milling out to a local company that also provides our hot mix .

I have a driveway that needs to be covered with milled asphalt. About 60×20, 1200 sq. ft. Any estimate on normal cost for this job?

$500 box blade on the Deere would be 100x faster and better.

at this point, wouldn't you essentially just need a steam roller to make an asphalt driveway?

Single or double grind?

Ive been wondering about cost I asked a guy about doing a 24'x24' flat grass area in millings he quoted me 4k

Can we make a low cost rc or kart track with millings?

What is there more of ...... Times this guy says ummmmmm an ahhhhh OR Rocks in this driveway

Why is one milling darker than others? Which is more expensive?

Do you have video of the finished job?

Are you supposed to compact it? My daughter just had this done and it's not compacted.

Nice wish I you were closer hire you for some work 😂 or give you a call if buy any property in Ohio! 🤔

I got hosed. We paid $50/tn for milking a yesterday. Argh

Ugh I'm having my driveway dont tomorrow if it looks this shitty I'm a be pissed

Chris Ward, where do you live?

where are you located

I DON'T KNOW WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT JUST TELL HOW COST

So this doesn’t need to be compacted?

What state do you live in Chris?

What's 4-11? Is that any thing like 4:20?😂 There's some pretty good size chunks in that asphalt. Doesn't look like it was screened.

You need a dump truck life is much easier.

If you're in hot Texas put asphalt millings down and let the Texas heat bake it in over time...ijs

People need to stop being cheap to themselves millings are very cheap to begin with just hire a company to come do the job the right way and it will be much smoother this looks absolutely terrible too bumpy and it’s not even level and smooth
