Last week, Cowboy Asphalt of Monett, MO was in our subdivision resurfacing our neighbors road and driveway. I watched them work and decided to have them do our driveway too. First I visited with the owner, Allen Fox, asking him to describe their process. We chose two layers of oil and gravel to do our job. We signed a contract with Allen, detailing our agreement. First, they removed old gravel and hauled it away. They contoured the drive to get the best drainage for rain water. Next they compacted the site with a 3,500 pound rolling machine. They laid down a layer of hot oil, then covered it with fine, attractive river gravel.
The first layer was then compacted, followed by the second layer of oil and gravel. Each layer of gravel was first leveled by hand raking, then compacted.
Allen's crew completed the job per our agreement. They began one afternoon and the job was complete by the following evening. After final inspection we paid them the contracted price. We are pleased to give Cowboy Asphalt a five-star rating for a job well done. Sincerely, Frank Bennington, Shell Knob, MO read more
