I had a big tree root growing underneath my driveway. I took up all the asphalt, cut out the tree root, and made everything all level again. I kept the small stone underneath as a base. I used a hand tamper to compact everything. Then I went to a place like Home Depot and bought the
50# bags of asphalt. I used about 16 bags in total. Then after I poured the asphalt, I used the hand tamper to compact it all making it level with the driveway. It has been a week now and it is still soft. What should I do? A friend told me to rent a compactor. Please help. Thanks.------------------------------------- Philip Runyon _ _ _ _ | |_ | |__ (_) ___ (_) ___ _ __ ___ _ _ | __|| '_ \ | |/ __| | |/ __| | '_ ` _ \ | | | | | |_ | | | || |\__ \ | |\__ \ | | | | | || |_| | \__||_| |_||_||___/ |_||___/ |_| |_| |_| \__, | |___/ _ _ ___ (_) __ _ _ __ __ _ | |_ _ _ _ __ ___ / __|| | / _` || '_ \ / _` || __|| | | || '__|/ _ \ \__ \| || (_| || | | || (_| || |_ | |_| || | | __/ |___/|_| \__, ||_| |_| \__,_| \__| \__,_||_| \___| |___/
