Driveway help

   / Driveway help #11  
So two things going on with my limestone driveway....

First we need to add more new limestone to the existing driveway. Here is the company that we will be using to deliver the stone Limestone and Sand - Knepp Sand & Stone

What do I want or what information do we need to make that determination? The underlying driveway is still solid but there is not much stone left on the driveway. So I can see larger vehicles (mainly the trash truck) starting to leave tire marks, so I know that is not good!

Also we are going to be building an additional drive area. The contractor wants to put down 3 inches of #2 slag then 2-3 inches of #53 limestone. Is that a good plan? The base is clay, as that is the soil in my neck of the woods.

Being originally form Illinois and understanding limestone, you contractor is giving you good advice. See if he can add mag chloride as he compacts it.
