How can you pave your driveway with asphalt grindings when already have an pot holes and sink holes?

It is not recommended to pave your driveway with asphalt grindings if you already have potholes and sinkholes. Asphalt grindings are small pieces of asphalt that have been removed from a roadway or parking lot during resurfacing or maintenance operations. While asphalt grindings can be used as a base material for new pavement, they are not suitable for filling potholes or sinkholes.

Potholes and sinkholes are caused by a variety of factors, including:

* Weak or damaged pavement: Over time, pavement can become weak or damaged due to heavy traffic, extreme weather conditions, or poor construction. This can lead to the formation of potholes and sinkholes.

* Poor drainage: Water can seep into cracks and joints in the pavement, causing the soil underneath to become soft and unstable. This can lead to the formation of potholes and sinkholes.

* Utility work: The repair or installation of underground utilities can sometimes damage the pavement, creating a pathway for water to seep in and cause potholes and sinkholes.

To properly repair potholes and sinkholes, the damaged area must be cleaned out and filled with a suitable patching material. The patching material should be compacted and allowed to cure properly before the roadway is reopened to traffic.

Asphalt grindings can be used as a base material for new pavement, but they should not be used to fill potholes or sinkholes. If you have potholes or sinkholes in your driveway, it is best to have them repaired by a qualified paving contractor.
