Yep always love asphalt, here from London Ontario
Yes please
More!! Love it!
Please more videos. I love your work and your ethics. Keep up the wonderful work out there.
Yes
A beautiful driveway completed by truly a group of professionals who not only know and understand, but love the work and finished product they provide for their customers. GREAT job guys. Did paving back in the 80's in Brandon, Manitoba. I too enjoyed it and the experience and joy from it has never been forgotten.
Would love to see more paving work. Love how you took the video and the quality of the shots of the "PAVING" job was great.
It also was great to see Dale the owner of WCI since I've seen his trucks roll in your yard for loam.
Keep up the great work and less videos per week are better since they are more quality enriched!!!
Paved for 30 years. Never seen anyone use a paver to grade a driveway.. That would really scratch the screed up..
I tried it once don’t like it
Ive seen come people actually have an older paver that they strictly use for grading base but i wouldnt ever use the same paver on base as i would on asphalt
Green Knoll Lawn Care laying base is common with an old paver he is talking about how they drug the driveway with the screed
My old company use to do it every once in awhile. I don’t see how it would hurt it any worse than putting binder through it.
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.
Hi man, liking your videos.
Trust me. As a coating plant batcher the customer will always complain if the tar/asphalt is too cold.
They NEVER complain if it keeps their toes toasty.
Especially in Scotland!!!!
Thank you! I appreciate that very much
Michael Anderson You guys did a fantastic job paving that lane way I love doing that type of work.
Dale, what’s your favorite part of the job?
Dale: *walks away* 😂
This driveway paving video is absolutely captivating! I was hooked from the start.
Watching the transformation of a worn-out driveway into a sleek surface is so satisfying. The attention to detail and precision are commendable.
The visuals are captivating, and the narration explains each step of the process, making it informative and engaging.
loved the homemade tamp shoes.
Awesome video! Paving is really interesting, so, yea more paving!
I'm starting this type of job today. This video really shows me what to expect. Thanks for posting.
19:00 minutes.
"Little details that matter"
Boot mark in the mix. No compaction. Lol.
TH-cam Student I’d hate to have a boot print
In fairness dale compacted over that spot at end of video.
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.
Learn more Canadian lingo here everyday, laneway = driveway, asphalt = ASH-Fault 😂
hahah had to change the. original title I put laneway, than realized when I was making my tags that most people on yt search drive way.
Depends where you are I guess in southern ontario we always call it driveway
Being in The US I have never heard of laneway before Ya learn something new everyday Lol
Never heard it called a laneway before either......and I'm in Canada.
@@mknucarman in australia a laneway links 2 streets
Great video. Great equipment. Great crew.
i love watching these types of videos! keep it up. Your videos remind me of the other youtuber Andrew Camarata
Andrew has awesome videos as well.
I hear ya with Andrew and he reminds me of me when I started about his age. But damn he sure is hard on his equipment at times, but getting better! Yet, I give him a ton of credit as when I comment on his videos, I always give him good sound advice which he has pinned or highlighted a lot of them. He also normally responds to my comments. But that boy can fix anything! I did a lot of my own repairs until I was able to hire a mechanic. That is where he had me. Andrew does pretty damn good work and not afraid to try or test new things! Love his channel!
Pave it.
And you have a great long weekend to 😀
Paving is everything to me, and I I'll pave for the rest of my life!!🙏💪💯
Greg and those WCI boys are cold blooded on getting that _hit done. That driveway looks excellent.....dope video thanks!
Pave it baby!!! Loved this one bro!! I had my driveway paved last year, loved relating with this one 😁
Paving! From NC, Keep it up and nice job.
Paving and next year you be ripping it up to replace the rotten colvert pipe lol
Paving from Missouri, USA!
KW Construction... Been following your channel for a while now, keep up the great work. I enjoy your videos a lot.
I used to haul asphalt in double bottom bumps and I actually miss the smell of it
He's favourite part of the job is breathing in the freshly baked tarmac and 4:59pm lol😂 Love the custom boots though
If there was ever a time you can smell a video, great stuff
Dale's custom asphalt paving boots KICK ASS!!!
Keep this kind of content coming👍🏾👍🏾

Pavin'!!! Great video!
Paving, great video
I just found this video I love watching companies pay driveways and highways so I don't know if you'll see this but hell yeah I love watching these videos keep them up
Looking good!!!
Pave it!! Have a great weekend!! I did something like that but at a large scale. We make the whole parking from a mall
that's insane!
Great job guys!!
Interesting thanks for posting as it was impressive
The professional way, in UK there are gangs of foreigners selling tarmac driveways that are wafer thin and only last a couple of months
We have that here too in the State Nic. There is a big group of gypsies or what is known as the "travelers" based out of the Carolinas and super easy to spot! 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.
paving , im only 20 mins east of carp :P love the content.. keep on going bud. gl with all the snow feb 27
I work in the automotive repair industry but I want to get into either the tree care service or pavement/concrete service. I like both but I think there's more work in the tree service when it rains, right?
Paveing great video Taylor something different I like it. We call it tarmac here in wales instead of asphalt
Loved operating the 289d. I have thousands of hours in the seat of a 289, 299 and 262
My best friend is going to teach me how to run. Heavy equipment
Next year's video: "Repairing the cracks in the driveway."
Why?
@@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.
Wesley Jones my dad own a ashphalt company and what I have learned is it has to be thick and compact to prevent cracking for long periods of time
Wesley Jones Longest comment ever! Lol. Well done!
Compacting good the base is very important for durability.
Pave it my guy!!
We call those areas Driveways, in Calif, Idaho, Connecticut and New Hampshire.
Everyone in the world except for England and this guy call it a driveway lol
Dale is a legend, hand tamping after the job is done
Great video. Sure yous will get a lot more customers off of the back of this. You explain the job well. Pity yous are do far away from 🏴 really as iv a large driveway needing done 🙄😁 great team there by the way.
Paving. This was a very good video of a spectacular driveway(usa) paving job.
This is legitimately a proper job 👍👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦
Paving great job would love to see them at my driveway
Exactly how is a driveway prepared? How many inches deep should a driveway be to hold up and not show any signs of depression if there is a truck parked on it each night? Thanks
love the paving content
PAVE IT!! Loved this. Learned so much. Liked Dale's ingenuity --- maybe he should go on Dragon's Den?
he should haha!
in northern canada we let gravel sit for 10-14 day be for we lay down black but looked good nice job
That's interesting. I'm in the states and just today I was on a road that got milled, graded and paved all in a matter of 3 hours.
We have a guy here in Ct that waits 30-45 days of the homeowner driving on it, then paves. Says it keeps the wheel tracks from sinking in as little as possible.
Asphalt not ashphalt, you were triggering me everytime you said it.
Lmao yo im glad im not the only one
Golly same here. So annoying.
Holy shit dude was driving me nuts too!
its a canadian thing lol we all say it or at least in ontario
Paving, great job
Watched the entire video, thanks for making the video (Y)
Nice work! Question why do you put a layer of hot asphalt before using paver? Thanks best regards
You need a mat to sit the screed on at the desired thickness to pull off from
Thank you I looking forward into the future to start a career in doing highways. And yes I watched your video untill the end good bless you and thank you
Material we use here in the UK, you can normally drive/park on the next day. How come it takes 4 days to go off?
Hey man I noticed the Ontario plate. I’m in the GTA in Bowmanville looking to get my driveway repaved and widened. Anyone out my way you could recommend? Thanks
Great video guys! Had a question. Why didn't you guys spray any tack before laying the asphalt?
I usually only put down tack when I’m resurfacing a driveway not when I have Dense grade down so maybe that’s why they didn’t.
Paving ....... knocked it out of the park
Paving!! Good video
Great Video. Thanks. Paving
That’s a weiler paver.would have saved a lot of time and energy by putting stone in paver and then running over the stone. For those who may say it would hurt the paver it doesn’t. Asphalt is made out of stone .Looks like a nice job👍Nice equipment but I wouldn’t bother with the roller with tires on it.
Definitely more paving content! Especially with the Weiler P265. I drive by their factory everyday when I head to work!
Okay I’ll get more!
Loooks good ! Nice skid steeer!
Pave it! good video used to haul asphalt in south Carolina making me miss it lol
I can tell you an employee like dale is irreplaceable to a small business
Dale has been working asphalt for 40 years and is still a laborer lol I’m sure they would be just fine
It takes a man like that to make or break a small buisness
@@andrewkuenzli8673how the f#ck would you know what Dale is capable of do you know him personally? I'm willing too bet he knows more about paving then you give him credit for! Good hardworking experienced labor's are hard too find! BTW everyone is replaceable and loyalty nowaday's and yesterday's doesn't mean anything! If you don't pay I don't play and neither should anyone else! All go somewhere else that will give me what I'm worth if they are paying me shit I'm gone with the wind!
paving and good vid!
Pave it. Great vid.
Very interesting, done paving for many years and never seen paving done this way😂😂😂... as far as nobody driving on it for 4 days, welllll that’s news to me, if you get good compaction while rolling it anyone can drive on it as long as they don’t park on it for a day or 2... good video, b
But as someone comment, paver screeds aren’t for grading stone
Pavement I watch the whole video it was a good one. Learned a lot
Incrível o trabalho bem feito deles.
Why is this so satisfying
Is Ashe-phalt a thing in Canada?
yes lol
Dales boot great he should market them to Australia ? Really great video to watch
Hello fellow down under person
We did it all the time with road base, we would do it much faster then the dirt division and with better results in time and quality. Water spray your paver afterwards and lube it ready for the asphalt.
Paving with custom dancing paver shoes!
those shoes were MINT
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?
Machines are kewl :)
its a good you have your truck here with you.
Pavin
Love too see more paving content by you or like a duo videos with WCI
Fine job.
Just picked up a Weiler p385 and love it
Were you not supposed to run the compactor before the grader?
Paving, real mans job
If you have to fine grade with the paver, you need a real operator on the skid steer. I’ve been around construction and paving for many years and never seen that before. The guy in the shorts is an accident waiting to happen, that asphalt will blister skin in an instant and it sticks to skin real well. Nice finished product, gotta give them that.
I work with the Teamsters now but ill never forget the few seasons paving driveways and parking lots lol black gold is really what it is
Exactly what my crew and me call it black gold!
Great video!
Yes I watch the paving from start to the finish
What happens to driveway if hours after new asphalt driveway got done it started raining on and off for couple days now I haven’t parked on it since Saturday July 10
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.
Thanks Dennis! Love the info!
dont think theres any left over asphalt then it was maybe half a yard but isnt it meter in canada? but other than that good to know what i should expect tomorrow
