Not that I don't trust my paving contractor but just curious from any of you that have experience with driveway paving. They gave me 3 options. Cheapest: base layer only - No! Mid: One layer of what they call ID3. Most Expensive: Base layer and top layer.
He has me doing the ID3 at 3". It is 25% cheaper than 2 layer mostly due to the time to only do 1 layer compared to 2. He said it will last just as long as the 2 layer if I seal it every 2 years. The 2 layer would need sealed every 4 years. He also said it won't look quite as smooth since it is both layers mixed into one but it will still look nice.
I have 7,441 sq ft and it's going to be $16,000. $2.15 per sq ft. It is 130' lane 12' wide and then open area about 115'x50'.
Anybody have any thoughts or input? I'm definitely not going the cheap way out and the ID3 he recommends as just as good as the 2 layer, plus it's cheaper.
