Hello,

Before I start getting Congtractors in, would like to ask all of you
experts: For a typical home driveway re-do:

What should the depth of the gravel beneath the asphalt that the
Contractor should/will put down be ?

What depth of Asphalt on top would make a good job ?

Thanks,
B.

I'm no expert but had mine repaved this spring.
Contractor only removed parts of old asphalt that were badly cracked and
might read through new paving. He only added a little gravel to those
spots, about equivalent to asphalt removed. I did have it widened by 2
feet but don't recall depth of gravel.
