you like "beggars can't be choosers", but hubby and I were discussing the paving project. We both had some ideas about it and I wondered if we were the only ones who thought this way. First: the milling of the old road. It seems like they did a quicky job. Missing large chunks of old road. and it doesn't seem like it went very deep. Second: the new paving. it doesn't seem very quality. a very thin layer (which we don't think it will last very long? pehaps) what do you all think?

pretty sure that thin bumpy strip is just a base coat, and a smoother thicker coat may be added on top of it. the milling is just to rough up the surface, like when you sand something to paint. i'm just guessing though.

I think that I'm hoping that is only the FIRST layer of pavement they are putting down... LMAO

I hope they do a better job than that... OMG, I think I might have to go postal if they finish with that puny little layer...

The 1" mill should do the job. They'll be putting rubberized asphalt on top, which has been shown to extend the life of the surface.

I think every time Jason posts he need to cite his sources... They'll be putting rubberized asphalt on top, which has been shown to extend the life of the surface. Not that I don’t believe you but seems like you know everything about everything... So tell me are you member of Mensa or do you just make this crap up?
