Below the gravel layer did u put textile ? did same job without it and after year or so vegetation stated to grow and in wet areas water found a way up the surface till
tell me about road plainings? will it stay together once compacted? i know you put diesel on it to help compact but? that dissolves the tar? so it cant go hard again like tar so whats the point really after all that work i know tar costs a fortune but is this any good long term? thank you
In Lincolnshire, we only have limestone which goes soft and milky when wet or a recycled product , Road planings contain granite which is hard wearing and Frost resistant, doesn't seem to pick up on tyres as much , it was a cheaper alternative to an tarmac or concrete roadway. But at present there isn't many road planings around , because councils and highways are recycling the planings they take up, which means what planings are about are quite expensive, we have have been using a recycled product which is crushed down to about 40mm to dust , providing its put down in the right conditions and hammered with a vibrating roller , it goes very hard and is still Frost resistant.
Duncan Scriven it was tipped while I was working in another area , I couldn't turn round to throw the planings back because of the posts on the left and sleepers to the right , tight access.
I've used road planings in my garden and driveway aslong as thay are cleaned down and get small bits out it works great and also very cheap to buy and personally thay look a lot better and better to walk and drive on than gravel
