We have a 600 sq meter driveway that has been given a single cold bitumen emulsion and 5mm aggregate seal about 8 years ago and is starting to look a little worn. Living out in a rural area (Bega) means that there are limited contractors available here and those that are here are useless. I was wondering if it is possible to obtain the cold bitumen emulsion and aggregate and do it yourself. It doesn't matter how long it takes me to do the job...I really have no other option as far as I can see. Cheers...DoggieBreath To my understanding early saw cuts are to control shrinkage cracks, so doing them now would be pointless. Control joints may reduce ugly cracking during periods of soil… 3 9830 Hi all I need a guidance on how far I need to space expansion joints in the concrete driveway and its type (keyway/foam.) Contraction joints are at 3m max for a 125 slab. Thanks 0 10926 |
