​
Notes
​
Asphalt Millings is a great aggregate driveway choice.  Due to its ability to re-bind together, the end result often times is a much harder surface than a regular gravel driveway.  Millings can come in different sizes from 1/2 inch minus upwards to 5" minus.  Unfortunately, this can be hard to control sense it depends on the milling company.

​
*BEST VALUE*
​

​
Pros
​

- Base Material Locks Gravel in Place
​
What to Expect
​
- If not compacted, first rain can cause material to float
- Compaction not necessary but helps speed up settling process
- Gravel is hard to see until material settles, appearing like dirt when being applied

- Will be Extremely Dusty after Install, and can be Dusty during Dry Seasons
​
Notes 
​
Our value driveway is a great and our most sought after driveway.  It offers a great finish at a fraction of the price of a concrete or paved driveway.  PLEASE NOTE:  Many customers comment on how it looks like dirt upon installation.  THIS IS NORMAL.  Due to the material shifting during its milling stage, the larger gravel will often times not be visible until after it rains and the driveway has had time to pull in.

#57 Concrete Rock

*PREMIUM*

Recycled Concrete Base Material with Recycled Concrete #57 Top

Pros

- Very Clean Look 
- .75 inch to 1.5 inch rock
- Looks and feels like a gravel driveway
- Not Dusty and does not track easily
- Great in areas where Dust is a Factor
- Great Drainage

What to Expect

- Hard to Maintain
- Moves in areas where twisting and turning is done
- Needs base material and good compaction to help lock #57 in place
- Doesn't lock in places as well

Notes

This driveway is an excellent choice if you need a real clean look, no dust, and don't mind loose material.  #57 is a washed material, so there is no base material to lock it in place.  Therefore, we use a base material and then compaction is highly recommended to help lock it in place.
