Built for White Hall's ground
Silty upland soils here hold water, and a base that stays wet into a hard freeze pushes the pavement above it. We grade every job so runoff has a path off the surface, compact the rock in layers rather than one deep lift, and support the edges where water leaves, since that is where failure starts.
The part of the job you can see is the last two inches. Ask what is underneath, how it will be compacted, and which way the finished surface drains.
Compacted asphaltTypically 2 to 3 in. for a car drive
Stone baseTypically 4 to 8 in., compacted
Drive on itUsually 2 to 3 days, longer in heat
First sealcoatTypically 6 to 12 months after paving
Typical ranges. Your White Hall estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.
