We hired this company for a new asphalt driveway at our home and are very unsatisfied with the final product. The drive way we now have is very unlevel and bumpy the grade on a normal driveway is 1-2%...ours is 5%. The owners "resolution" to our extreme slope is to put additional boards under our camper tires to level it out. This is obviously not a sufficient fix.
Before 30 days had passed, our driveway cracked and sunk in a path that we drove on. Also, where we have parked our camper on the driveway (on top of plywood) there are indents where the plywood is.
The owner says that the sinking is due to the clay that is in the ground under the driveway and there is no way that he could help that. He did not mention anything about clay when he was bidding on the job, nor did he mention it after he had pulled up the previous driveway before laying the new asphalt. One way to alleviate this problem, could have been to lay sufficient aggregate down under the asphalt. The normal amount of aggregate would have been approximately 4 inches. The most we have found is 1 inch in some areas and none in others.
The owner came out to lay a patch over one of the sink areas, but is refusing to fix the slope without an additional $500.
