    Driveway Sealing

    Any of you have a line on a decent/honest deal?

    My driveway is about 60' long and 20' wide, give or take. There are a couple of spots I'd like patched up (buddy had a WVO car leak some kind of fucking acid in the middle of it) as well.

    About how much would a reasonable estimate on something like that be? I'm taking off on business travel for a few weeks, and am looking to get it done while I'm away.

    Edit: Unless someone can bang it out this weekend/next week sometime, which would also be awesome.

    Just wait for those guys to show up with the extra they have from the big job.

    I was thinking that, but those guys never seem to come around my area. I'd just DIY, but I literally have to make blackberry appointments to scratch my balls these days. I've done less than 500 miles this season on two wheels.

    That was a joke. Those guys are usually gypsies who will put motor oil on your drive way. Glad I could help inform you.

    See that, you could have driven by and sold me Sheppo's old brake fluid!

    Just kidding. Not even driveway sealer is as black as Sheppo's brake fluid.

    I'm going to be on travel for about 6 weeks and want someone to bang it out while I'm away, since my driveway will be empty.

    Re: Driveway Sealing

    Get someone to spray it on it comes out much better than the squeegee method on a large drive.
    A friend of mine has good sucess placing ads on CL for jobs doing, might be worth a shot?

    Two things...

    on Expat's patchwork driveway, looks like something you'd see in England. Not really up to our American standards...


    Secondly ... what's this I hear about dinner?

    Re: Driveway Sealing

    Thanks for the replies gents, and the PMs. I'd like to get someone local-ish, because I'd hate to have someone on the south shore come all the way up here for such a small/low-paying job as opposed to a full pave.

    zxme - I'll give your buddy a ring tomorrow. My driveway's a bit bigger than yours but if it's around the $300 range and sprayed, that's exactly what I'm looking for. Plus I'm just up in Amesbury, so it would be a quick trip for him.

    If you want to PM me your name, I'll tell him you sent me.

    I got to call your buddy Tim. I want it done. Maybe when Amesbury is done, he can do my driveway in Salisbury.
