Here we replace an blacktop asphalt driveway. We use the mini and Bobcat T66 to remove the old driveway. Then the plate compactor and roller on the sub base.
2 things; former asphalt drum plant operator. Slag is used in some blends, normally 14mm slag for extra grip. Roundabouts for example, with a rubber/asphalt mix. As for the base underneath, i can only assume but it was probably based on availability. 2nd thing, a bloke we worked with was trying to tip off a little bit via the grain chute like that. I think it was a ten wheeler 🇦🇺 (T23 config, twin-steer & 3 axles). The load was stuck and the driver attacked the load through the chute. It came loose, smashed the back gate open and dumped the load of 180c hotmix, burying him up to his tummy.That's induced coma shit right there. Please only do that method on small jobs, only that single axle truck, nothing bigger...and add a second control for the back gate like an extra chain, pins or both. Make sure it cant open, that shit will put you in hospital proper.
Its a tough job you do it well thanks don't work to hard just hard working men buy them a soda or something they deserve alot of credit your service is deeply appreciated thanks ! Joe
Base coat like used on town streets is best mix for driveways. Friction coat is the top layer used on state and federal highways where high speeds and high traffic because it is cource which helps displace rain and offers better traction. Not used on city streets because speeds are lower. Base coat material can turn out as flat and smooth as tile and being as tight as it is will last much longer on drives. Always check with plant too see what mix they are running before loading. Just saying.
If you lived closer to Philly I would have loved to get my drone out and take "start to finish" footage of your crew doing the work! Nice stuff, Sean and crew!
"Slag" is also called "manufactured stone" or "man-made stone". It's a byproduct of some smelting or refining processes. I used to haul waste dust from a steel recycler foundry to a lead/zinc recovery facility. The leftovers from extracting the lead & zinc was relatively fine & called sand instead of slag, but particle size is the only significant difference.
I was curious to see, as will be going through this Noise and mess. I wanted to see how its removed up at the garage door, Without harming it. Townhomes were just painted. Im leaving town when my portion is being done. I couldnt take the Noise. Nerve racking.
This video is not only informative but also inspiring for anyone considering a driveway renovation. Great job documenting the process! Explore Buildovate CRM to simplify the management of construction projects like this!
but when removing the asphalt, why didn't you put the excavator in front and use the level to load the asphalt onto the tracked loader instead of doing it by hand?
I worked for a company in Ottawa Canada who instead of using heavy machinery, decided to hire 10 college kids to do it by hand. Decent pay and I got pretty jacked over the summer. I imagine the labour cost would have been the same as renting machinery, the foreman was an idiot lol. Our jobs took 4x as long.
@@brianstratton8767also, permeable lawn chequer bricks (better grip on an incline, better rain drainage, less heat/sealed surface) seem to be unheard of. Why do asphalt in the first place unless you MUST use it for skate board tricks : /
You had 2" of Base, compacted that and then went to get the Top coat but didn't mention how many inches of the top layer you used for this installation? That would be helpful to know. Thanks, Tom
Is it best to compactor plate first before using big roller? I see a lot of people straight up roller and wouldn’t bother with the compactor plate unless certain tight areas?
yeah feels like its gonna crumble in a few months and you could just kick it apart. i work for a company that pave road and this is not looking very good compared to what we do.
It's more of a watershed than a high weight capacity/traffic surface. So it fares better with higher gravel/tar ratio than a highway or even a parking lot would.
Looks like it didn't have enough sand in the mix. 1st coat and second looked the same. Probably easier just to use wheelbarrows for moving the new asphalt in
Got to love how some contractors cut corners its like they did a asphalt driveway and slammed a fence down the middle and called it 2 driveways 😂 just when I think I've seen it all
It looks more like a shared driveway originally. The fence probably went up because one homeowner was most likely using up more of the driveway. You can politely talk to your neighbor, and they won't listen. Until you end up being proactive delineation of the property line and they start moaning.
Not sure what mix was used but finish in video looks a bit rough like highway friction coat. Would hope roller drums were full and hard wheel roller may have helped. Sorry but see this lasting too long.
Damn, I just spent $9k on 5,000 sqft of recycled asphalt because hot asphalt would have been another $5k, and only wish my recycled asphalt was even 1/2 as nice as what you removed. I basically have black gravel
Depends on local codes, weight capacity & bedding surface. Concrete is more load bearing, & asphalt is more of a watershed. That's one reason they did so much compaction work on the bedding.
Excellent work on the wall and the driveway. 1 question I have is why didn't you add more space on the new section of driveway to allow for parking a car there clear of the main driveway?
He was just running a pre cut fit the groove for the blade. Using two hands offers no advantage. My step dad who retired with 35 years experience in the field used to cut walls up to 3 m high and just barely hold the the handle big of the hand saw as he cut over head wall penetrations. If the bastard bites n kicks at least the saws going over him and falling behind him.
Ah ... I see you already know the SECRET to a good, long lasting paving job ... good compaction ... my job is done here ... Heat index has _nothing_ to do with asphalt ... rock doesn't sweat
Looks good, but you got oil ALL OVER the sidewalk and street!!!!! Hopefully that washes away in the rain. I’d be aggravated if that was my driveway. OIL IS EVERYWHERE!!!!!
Great video and very informative, but why replace asphalt with asphalt, it's such a cheap and nasty look ... This is not a criticism of your work, it's excellent ....it's just the aesthetics. Hey ho...
Looks like a lot of segregation in the final lift. Not enough fines are missing. Looks good now however in the next few years will notice. The more you touch, less the quality.

Thanks for the advise, hopefully the guy was ok. The tailgate on the truck we used had chains as a back up on each side. Thanks for watching

Absolutely great work, guys! Totally professional and top-notch. Cheers.
Thank you
Looks Terrific guys.... Did notice that the other driveway didn't get any damage,, chips or cracks along the edge. Job well done.

great looking machines and very smooth

Never saw a driveway cross properties like that before. I have had fun installing asphalt like that bucket by bucket with a skid steer.
It gets worse, In some areas of NYC such as Brooklyn it’s common to see two houses on each side sharing a one car width narrow driveway in the middle.
I was curious to see, as will be going through this Noise and mess. I wanted to see how its removed up at the garage door, Without harming it. Townhomes were just painted. Im leaving town when my portion is being done. I couldnt take the Noise. Nerve racking.

That wall and driveway cost more than that house was worth back in '20. Looks good. Did the neighbor not want his asphalt redone?
Is it best to compactor plate first before using big roller? I see a lot of people straight up roller and wouldn’t bother with the compactor plate unless certain tight areas?
Looks good but how come its so gravely looking? I thought it would be more closed/sealed or tight or whatever you would call it.
yeah feels like its gonna crumble in a few months and you could just kick it apart. i work for a company that pave road and this is not looking very good compared to what we do.
It's more of a watershed than a high weight capacity/traffic surface. So it fares better with higher gravel/tar ratio than a highway or even a parking lot would.
awesome, how long does the asphalt last, and is it possible to tailgate asphalt?

Since you had a mini on site, its so much cleaner and easier to put the blade down on the cut and pull towards it. Skid only carries the spoils.
Not really…
how much you charge per square foot to remove a driveway like this?
3:09 "Thankfully I had the excavator here to munch it up" .. Bobcat did 95% of the work lol
But that little bit did help!
Wow I love that black top driveway
How long does it takes to set .and cab you use dry cold tar
Not sure what mix was used but finish in video looks a bit rough like highway friction coat. Would hope roller drums were full and hard wheel roller may have helped. Sorry but see this lasting too long.
Is there a difference between compactor and steam roller? Are both needed if it's a budget job?
The roller vibrates just the same as a plate compactor. It can just cover more ground quicker. You can get away with using either one
@@srmcontracting I see. thanks. Time = money.
Roller is heavier and better compaction, should always be used where cars will be driven or parked. Also noticed the finish is rather rough looking
How much did you charge?!?!
Damn, I just spent $9k on 5,000 sqft of recycled asphalt because hot asphalt would have been another $5k, and only wish my recycled asphalt was even 1/2 as nice as what you removed. I basically have black gravel
Nice work, looks really clean
Thanks!
Grading bucket to rip is kinda funny!
The heat is mad. Uk can drive on it in a few hours
extremely nice work
Thank you
Awesome Job Dude!
what does a asphalt peaver earn per month in the U.S?
I am so sorry for your lost friend and the family of your lost brother in your prayers I know that I
looked like the edge between the sidewalk and the end of the driveway was super thin. I don't understand why driveways aren't 4" thick like concrete
Depends on local codes, weight capacity & bedding surface. Concrete is more load bearing, & asphalt is more of a watershed.
That's one reason they did so much compaction work on the bedding.
😊😊
Excellent work on the wall and the driveway. 1 question I have is why didn't you add more space on the new section of driveway to allow for parking a car there clear of the main driveway?
Yeah they could have bumped the wall over a few more feet for two spot parking.
It’s the customer’s property. You would have to ask them 😂
Good job 🚜⛏️👍 greetings from México 🇲🇽
Thanks 👍
from Oaxaca México good job soy operador de retroscavadora
This yalls first day removing a driveway m😂😂😂😂😂😂
Can i apply there us heavy equipment operator such us backhoe opetor or skidloader operator
Hi awesome job,Which state do you work in?
Thanks, Mainly PA and NJ sometimes
I hope that you saved the homeowner a lot of money vs concrete.
U guys did a beautiful job there I never seen a driveway done like that
Thank you
Why?
Great way to run a saw 1 handed. I wonder why workers comp is so high
Dude I work with is always going that and I just think he looks like a idiot
He was just running a pre cut fit the groove for the blade. Using two hands offers no advantage. My step dad who retired with 35 years experience in the field used to cut walls up to 3 m high and just barely hold the the handle big of the hand saw as he cut over head wall penetrations.

They wouldn’t understand they probably never used a saw in the entire life but have to say what’s wrong with the way it was used
Tell me you’ve never used a saw without telling me lmao
@@DejanKeepingitRealض❤❤ض❤
Totally thought this was a concrete video lol
Wats done with the old asphalt
Its brought to a recycling facility
Great job guys
Thank you
How much is the cost?
Why didn’t you do the neighbors side and make it cleaner looking?
how much did a job like this cost? looks good
Slag is some one who gives it away to easy 👍👍🤣🤣🤣🤣
Looks good from my house
Looking good!!!
great work
Thanks!
curious if you own the roller? or rent? i’ve heard they are $$$
Own, it's an older one. You can find older used ones for around 5k
Wow good video
Thanks 👍
not gonna lie it doesnt rly look good to me. feels like its gonna crumble in a few months by just kicking it.
Oh so your a professional no your not so hush they are so let them do there job and enjoy it and stop being a a hole
U lie way too much.. keep lying and see how that goes
Professionals
Good job❤
Fine job gentlemen
Thanks
Old mate one hand on the saw.. other mate walks next to the bucket.. all in the first 2 mins
