Time Lapse of a Driveway Peel & Pave

  • Опубликовано: 28 сен 2024
  • New driveway installed by Ottawa Pavemasters on June 5, 2015. The whole process took about 3 hours but I've used time lapse to speed that up to just over 7 minutes. The driveway had begun to fail with large cracks, holes, and areas that were only about 1/2" thick when the old driveway was pulled up. You can see the failure of the driveway on the right hand side just above the wet spots on the asphalt. Rather than having it get worse through another Canadian winter, it was replaced. The cost was around $2400 CAD.

      They scammed the owner. instead of fresh reseal, they got him to replace it. The fact you thinking good is the reason your comonay doesn't do as well as others each year. Scammed companies will die.

      @@captainchaos4896 sorry I’m just now seeing these. It’s $9.65. I make $11 an hour now but this Friday I’ll be asking for $13 or more. I work at a landscape yard and I do anything and everything. Pulling orders, running the bobcats and loading customers with trees and bulk materials. Loading trucks for deliveries, and way more to even begin to explain. The place would be nothing without me (and I’m not trying to be cocky at all) and they’re paying other people way more. I’m practically a foreman, I have 6 kids that report to me, and $11 an hour isn’t cutting it especially when I’m working 10-12 hour days, 6 days a week. Good hours and overtime but I have no time for a social life. I get that I’m 17, and they can pay me whatever they want, but when I do way more than the grown adults there, I know my worth and feel that I deserve more. Edit: I forgot to mention I’ve been there 3 years, and haven’t been late once, and have called in sick literally one day. So I’m dependable. And am I wrong for wanting more?

    Interesting. Here in Europe almost nobody has asphalted their driveway. We use mostly concrete blocks in a variety of shapes and colors so you can basically have a simple design or create a piece of art. Choice is yours and there are alsmost unlimited options to choose from. The main benefits are one - it holds up many decades before it even shows signs of age and when it does you just wash it off with a pressure washer and they are all like new again (except you ordered a specific color that bleached out but you can apply paint and get it back to day one again) and two - if you change your mind you can always sell whatever you got left when lifting the blocks and replace them with new ones and three - in bright summer daylight you don't smell anything. Asphalt will always leak odours and not really healthy fumes while concrete is just that. No matter the temperature. A side benefit - if you manage do damage a few of them you simply replace them one by one and you are done. Recycling is not a problem. If you don't plan on selling you can turn them in at your local disposal place and they get back into the system so one day they will become something new again. No hate here, just telling about some other place how it works :)

    • @VC-Toronto
      @VC-Toronto 7 лет назад +644

      Likely leftover cold mixture from the previous day's work. It goes along with the torn up material to be ground up, heated, and then relaid as new asphalt. (asphalt is about 90-95% granular material, and about 5-10% asphalt "goo", and is almost 100% recyclable into new paving surface)

      MrTemjin asphalt is made up of dried aggregate and oil. they get mixed while neing just over 300 degrees. theres a couple different classes of it depending on aggregate size. thats all it is. i could explain it all but will give you the very short version.

    • @973motoguy8
      @973motoguy8 7 лет назад +20

      Vern C thats not all true. id say asphalt is about 30% recycled, and the "goo" is called tack. pretty much just tar. recycled asphalt dosent last long. i pave highways not driveways like these guys. lol

    • @VC-Toronto
      @VC-Toronto 7 лет назад +32

      973 motooguy - The "goo" is bitumen. The term asphalt is another term for bitumen, but "asphalt" is commonly used as the term for the finished road surface comprised of granular material and bitumen. To be correct, the term that should be used is asphalt concrete.
      I'm not sure what you mean by "about 30% recycled". I've copied a reference from Wickipedia below.
      According to industry surveys conducted annually by the Federal Highway Administration and the National Asphalt Pavement Association, more than 99% of the asphalt removed each year from road surfaces during widening and resurfacing projects is reused as part of new pavements, roadbeds, shoulders and embankments

      I’m willing to bet that what they dumped was leftover hot mix (asphalt) from the last job they were in that day. They dumped it and reloaded it with the freshly peeled out driveway to keep it from setting up in the truck bed. It’s too dark to be stone, even recycled. I could be wrong but that’s my guess

    We have concrete driveways, the only time they need replaced is if they were not done correctly in the first place. Maybe after 100 years or so. But a properly laid concrete driveway won't have to be replaced in most people's lifetimes. So glad we don't have stinky asphalt here. We used to have it when I was a kid in MO. All I remember was the street getting soft and sticky when it got hot outside.

      There are pros and cons to each. Me personally I'm like you, I prefer poured concrete. They can last many decades longer than asphalt. The only problem is it is more expensive per square foot.

    I recently got a quote on repaving my driveway and they quoted me $6000! From what I see in your video, my driveway is narrower but slightly longer than yours. Overall, the cost should be similar. I thought their estimate was way too high, so I just bought some asphault patch from the store and fixed it myself.

      august anything over 2 inches is too thick and will never compact and harden. Meaning it'll always be soft and in the sun it heats up and causes sinking from things like tires. They'll sink and dent the asphalt and make it look crappy and could cause cracking eventually

    • @augustreil

      Never heard that anything over 2'' is too thick. My driveway and neighbors were done in 2 lifts, the bottom was 2'' with bigger stone and then they put another 2'' layer on that with the smaller, tighter asphalt. It's been 10 yrs and both look perfect.

      Asphalt compacts. Best in lifts , you won't get proper compaction. If just put it down 6 inches thick , it would be better with 3 2 inch lifts or even 2 3 inch lift rather then one 6 inch lift , asphalt isn't really hard as a rock it has tar in it which makes it flexible so it's important to have a good solid base under the asphalt along with the proper thickness of asphalt for the weight that going to be on it , and if the asphalt is too thin , it's just going to crack no matter what ,
