Um, that is the final product? Maybe the camera isn't doing it justice, but t looks like it is just the base layer. No topcoat? The surface looks really rough in spots. Best of luck with it. I really do hope it lasts.
Looks great BUT, if that were mine I would be making them do it the right way. That blacktop job is really poor quality. It should be smooth as glass and not all porous and grainy looking. I would definitely have a conversation with them about it. Hate to see someone spend good money on bad work.
We used a bigger version of that machine when I worked for the DOT and it gets SUPER HOT on that thing especially if your the ground guy! You gotta be on point with it. Glad to see you guys making progress and I wish you guys the best of luck with the storage facility. Keep hustling!
Sean, I would still put those concrete catchers underneath the spouts, so it will slow down ANY weathering it can cause, especially in HEAVIER RAIN fall, but that is just My opinion, have a good evening 🌆✨
I done that type of work for 4 years on my life should put some cones or caution tape up for at least 24 hrs and just be easy with the salt and remember to seal coat next year and about every 2 years after
That asphalt is going down at 350 - 390 degrees. I did that kind of work back when I was in my 20s. You can actually cook corn on the cob in the hopper of the paving machine .we would remove the silk from the fresh ears of corn and wrap it in foil and then bury it under a shovel of hot asphalt for about 20 - 30 minutes. It made for a nice Hot lunch while waiting for the next truck to show up.
Man, there is just SO much porosity in this...I am sorry to see this. Yes, it IS going to cause problems, even with heavy sealer. This lot could literally be gone back over with an infrared unit and rebonded and smoothed. It looks like they got to far ahead with the paver and/or weren't right with the program (late) with the rollers. Some freezing/thawing cycles will certainly show the difference. 😢
I admire your desire to make your business look professional and the pride of ownership you have in all that you do. This country desperately needs to get back to that. I miss when businesses were clean and well maintained.
I pay a guy 140 a year to use a roller just like that to roll my yard. When I mow with my rider it's like driving on a brand new road. I've never walked on such a smooth lawn other than the greens at a golf course.
WOO HOO‼️ Been a long wait for this. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I live in the Pacific Northwest - rain central. Concrete guys here usually recommend splash locks like yours of gutter extensions to divert rainwater off driveways etc. Don’t know if asphalt is the same.
Spencer i really hope this asphalt last a long time but from what I'm seeing i don't have a lot of confidence in this having much longevity. I hate being negative with my comments about the asphalt job but honesty is the best policy and the edges look horrible they should be straight. Stay safe and hydrate
That asphalt road leading to ur facility looks like crap, that’s a 4 inch pothole on that manhole cover. I understand it having to be under 2 percent grade for ADAs but it looks like that company didn’t mill dowm far enough. Also that so called “finish” coat looks like base. Maybe too cold laying it down. You can also already see what’re holes from off grade. They weren’t on lunch break it seems like a long trip to and from the plant. Horrible pave job
If those guys and that COMPANY knows what they are doing it will NOT BE CRACKED, especially if they SEALED IT CORRECTLY, most of the time when you see black top cracked is because it was not done right or SEALED
In our town you have to pay for the sidewalks but city will do the street corners handicap. See if there is a cost share between property owners and city.
Hello 👋 Looks great, they done a great job 👍 👏 👌 I think putting river rocks down on the sides would be a great option. A lot less maintenance/ weed control.
Shawn I’m not being mean but unless the camera is playing tricks that paving job definitely isn’t the greatest shouldn’t be that rough looking but if you are happy with it I guess that’s all that’s necessary
no binder just finish coat I can't beleive they pr did those spots instead of doing it all while hot and not back heating , not something I would pay for any driveway that uses just the finish coat does not last under heavy traffic
👋 Hey Spencer's.... We Finally Got A Little Rain In Gainesville, Georgia Today.... Was Teasing With My Husband Before We Got Rain That He's Going To Have To Do The Rain Dance🌧️ 😂
What about putting a couple of shipping containers and renting them out. There's a couple storage places that have them next to the storage buildings and that they are renting them out
That one dude was wearing a sumbraro (spelling)😂😂. That has to be one of the hottest jobs there is to do. Especially on days like this. Anyway Shawn it looks awesome man. Happy for you guys. Stay safe cool and hydrated be careful and keep up the great work. Bruce in Wv!!!

all top coat no base. never saw that before. Usually 2 1/2" base then 1 1/2" of top. Hope it lasts and doesn't give you problems.
My thoughts as well. Hope it lasts, but I really have my doubts.
Definitely no top boys either binder or t2
Looks great BUT, if that were mine I would be making them do it the right way. That blacktop job is really poor quality. It should be smooth as glass and not all porous and grainy looking. I would definitely have a conversation with them about it. Hate to see someone spend good money on bad work.
Yes, get new drain diverters. It will wear away the blacktop.

You have several issues with the work that was done. If you go with standards the city would follow.
Sean, I would still put those concrete catchers underneath the spouts, so it will slow down ANY weathering it can cause, especially in HEAVIER RAIN fall, but that is just My opinion, have a good evening 🌆✨
Seems like common sense, really.

Hey Team Spencer, storage facility is looking really nice with the new black top.
That asphalt is going down at 350 - 390 degrees.

I love the Sombrero!!!! Man that's hard work! Kudos to those folks!

You should look into Boxwell to add some new units to your storage
Its binder which is a bigger stone which goes under the top coat, the top coat goes on top with a smaller stone to pack better.
Could you put used shipping containers there? You can fit at least ten of them. Buy them as slowly as you can afford them.
As to extra units a lot of the local storage places here use 20x8or 10x8 sea cans as ye call them they look well if all the same colour
The making stores containers now where are they take them and make them into storage units
Shouldn't need any thing for the run off out the down spouts on the black top. keep it sealed though. Get rid of the trip hazards
I pay a guy 140 a year to use a roller just like that to roll my yard. When I mow with my rider it's like driving on a brand new road. I've never walked on such a smooth lawn other than the greens at a golf course.
Maybe a few small shipping containers down that side?
Looking great. You guys have done so well with a lot of hard work.
Love the sombrero on the guy with the gas powered packer

Getting a first hand look at what G went to do!

I hate being negative with my comments about the asphalt job but honesty is the best policy and the edges look horrible they should be straight. Stay safe and hydrate
Don't look like they put tack down first between the rock and asphalt to hold down hope holds up no tack 14:22
Awesome video have a great rest of the week awesome job on the parking lot
Ask the company that did the work if you need the kick outs (that's what I would do personally)
Love the sombrero
That's right by Ida's Cafe

Make sure they come back in 60 to 90 days and seal coat it if not it will not last
It needs to be 120 days and stating to be grey if not white
Congratulations on the paving being completed.
Shipping containers
Does anyone know how, or why, the famous Indian rain dance works so well?
Because, they didn't stop dancing until it rained. 😁😁😁😁😁😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That blacktop will be all cracked by next summer
If those guys and that COMPANY knows what they are doing it will NOT BE CRACKED, especially if they SEALED IT CORRECTLY, most of the time when you see black top cracked is because it was not done right or SEALED
Based on you watching a 2 minute video explain
@@geo752 EXPERIENCE, DUH, WAKE UPPPPP, WOW, You really need a wake up call don't you
@@deionsharpe5139so you say but still no explanation why
You will be surprised that it won't be cracked. Do you think big truck will be driving on it?
Nice
That looks amazing. Great job shawn and tq
Hey Shawn the storage facility looks awesome.
Looks great, Spencer Team ❣️ Be safe, hydrate 💦 💦 💦 and wear sunscreen! Prayers 🙏🙏🙏
I would use the down spout diverter block so that later down the line you don't get premature damage to the new finish
Good Evening TEAM SPENCER
Wow it was great job on on new black top street keep up your good work lawn keep money and Hod Bless Shawn
Torch heats new and old hardened to bond together
Great job
Great job 👍👍
I just spoke to Dennis at Milhoan today. Plenty nice fella.
Nice!
In our town you have to pay for the sidewalks but city will do the street corners handicap. See if there is a cost share between property owners and city.
Cheapest bid isn’t always the best bid, js
Shawn, I will recommend you to keep a seal coat on that black top so it won’t crack by the time. So it can keep that black color on it.
Looks great and love seeing this whole process!! Transforms the look of the property. Also am I the only one that loves the smell of fresh asphalt? 😂
Shawn did they put or spray hot tar on the gravel first to seal the gravel first. Hope it dont crack if they didn't. Just saying. RF
Looks good too
Awesome
Hello 👋
Looks great, they done a great job 👍 👏 👌
I think putting river rocks down on the sides would be a great option. A lot less maintenance/ weed control.
Makes it look like a whole new place.
Shop update 🤷🏼♂️
Looks awesome brother
In ny if u own the property your responsible for the sidewalk
Shawn I’m not being mean but unless the camera is playing tricks that paving job definitely isn’t the greatest shouldn’t be that rough looking but if you are happy with it I guess that’s all that’s necessary
Very nice work Looks great
Congrats
Do you plan on making a chute blocker for a 61” v ride stand on scag mower?
@Guy91 Yes! They will be available soon!
@SpencerLawnCare sounds good thank you boss
What about a chute blocker for a 48 inch grandstand.
no binder just finish coat I can't beleive they pr did those spots instead of doing it all while hot and not back heating , not something I would pay for any driveway that uses just the finish coat does not last under heavy traffic
Use some Shipping container
Plowing is going to be great this year
That’s a great improvement
What happen to your pond
👋 Hey Spencer's.... We Finally Got A Little Rain In Gainesville, Georgia Today.... Was Teasing With My Husband Before We Got Rain That He's Going To Have To Do The Rain Dance🌧️ 😂
Black top looks great and maybe turning the downspout kick out 45 degrees so it exits out to the walkway more maybe
That looks amazing! Thanks for sharing.
What about putting a couple of shipping containers and renting them out. There's a couple storage places that have them next to the storage buildings and that they are renting them out
Yes put one there Mark from Ontario Canada !
Good evening 108° today North Central Kansas
Shawn it sounds to me like you might need to have the AC completely recovered and recharged.
How many tons of gravel and dirt did they haul away?
WOWEE! COOL STUFF!
Put shipping containers there with doors on the side
Small cargo containers.
Conex containers
Money WELL Spent
You should think about shipping containers?
I would leave them
Hey just looking for some advice for starting my own business
That one dude was wearing a sumbraro (spelling)😂😂. That has to be one of the hottest jobs there is to do. Especially on days like this. Anyway Shawn it looks awesome man. Happy for you guys. Stay safe cool and hydrated be careful and keep up the great work. Bruce in Wv!!!
Looks like you need a Bigger Truck just saying.
Weed eat weeds b4 treatment.
First as always
Nice!
