Who can lay an asphalt silage pit floor for me?

I've been assured this quote is for a suitable product.
There wouldn't be limestone in the mix in this part of the country anyway?

I'm pleased with this...

I guess the real test will be the photo I post in 20 years time!

It will be an old pit, recovered. You can asphalt thinner than a layer of concrete

We had several lorry loads tipped on the concrete apron in front of our silage pit last year when contractors resurfaced the farm drive. The thin layer which was left on the 40 year old concrete has stuck like **** to a blanket and sealed the worn area. Very hard wearing.

That looks very smart, how did you keep the original concrete base in such good condition?

I'm lucky that the concrete wore quite evenly.
It was a good job when the floor was laid 35 years ago... not too many 'joins', not so many weak spots. Always tried to keep it cleanish. Also it's a small pit so not much scope for traffic beyond reversing in & driving out.
