 Whats happening to my Gravel Driveway

Your driveway has taken a set against the fiber at this time but it is wet from the rains and the moisture and you only have dirt in the upper layer. The heavy or larger rocks have been jambed into the fiber and are ready to hold but really need to be dried out to top grade and install a three inch layer of run a crush, or crush or run should be applied as close to the stone top level as possible. A good sized roller is needed for good compaction after grading. This applied with a layer of moist two inch stone dust over the top and rolled again would give a drive way the ultimate top surface which could also be professionally oiled and easily maintained and near blacktop strong.

Macdaddy the crushed stones will always stay loose on the top but would be good for a layer in between the stone dust which would hold and compact hard for a strong surface that is not always plowed off every winter for when you do have snow.

We have great amounts of stone quarries here with solid stone and the dust comes from under the conveyors and from grinding the stone to size. It sets up great when compacted wet. To spread a little motar mix on and it is really like concrete.
