[QUOTE="-Pjackso, post: 4260684, member: 8119"] If you're short on time, I recommend you try to get a couple quotes. At least you have a better idea of what part of the road is important and what to focus on. Talk with your contractor and discuss options (given your information). Maybe get a quote for a 6" thick gravel road. Afterward, you can apply chip-seal on top of it. If you're really thinking of trying it yourself, do a small 40-ft test section to gauge the hassle factor. And/or - do the project in small sections based on your time/money constraints. Disclaimer: I am an engineer, but I'm *NOT* a civil engineer. I help manage my HOA roads and I've had decent success, but I make no guarantee implied or expressed. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
