  1. The based prep and gravel under the asphalt are what makes the job good and last a long time. If there isn't good or enough gravel under the area to be paved, strip out at least 6-8 inches of material and replace it with graded gravel and compact it. Most parking lots are designed and constructed with 12 inches of gravel, 12 inches is what I would consider the gold standard for a regular driveway.
  2. overcast and sprinkles here in western mass, 69F
  3. they know how to make a profit - propane equipment is less costly that fuel oil equipment in new construction
  4. I used Solar Store of Greenfield for my install back in 2016, very happy with them. I opted to replace the roof the same time the panels were put on, and had the same company do both, that way if the roof leaked I would know who was responsible. You want to own the panels (vs. leasing them).
