I have my bitumen driveway paved for a year. I found many small crack and a rather big crack in the middle. How could I fix it?
Answer:
This is not going to be fixed by a DIY-er. You'll want to call back the people who did the work and they should be able to explain to you why the deterioration has taken place so soon after installation. They may have to 're-cap' it but repairing it is all but out of the question. Anything you fill that crack with will only pop out again in a matter or months - if not weeks.
In the interests of retaining credibility that I worked several decades to establish and in fairness to all, I don’t comment on various (building, electrical, plumbing) codes, brand-specific products, recommend prices, people nor companies for various projects.
Remember, even if you don’t do your own work around the house have to hire someone, you put yourself at a great advantage when you can intelligently discuss a project with the various trades people.
