Wowsies. A deal just fell into my lap. I was outside, schmoozing around in the 82F weather with the light breezes, and a small dump truck came down my road to turn around. He would have to go about 250 feet past the Chateau to be able to do a 3-point turn and get out.
When it came past, I waved at them. We do not get two cars a month down this road. The guy stopped and looked at my driveway, and said:
"I have a load of whitestone in the truck that I paid for, but the place I was to deliver it to went broke. I can finish your driveway all the way out to the road right now with my helper if you'd like."
"How much?" sez I.
"I will do it for $250. All leveled out and permanent."
So I brought him in to see the Beautiful Witch and he repeated his offer. Herself looked at me and I nodded. So did she.
I was glad to help him out, because he plainly was flat broke.
So now, I have a completely finished driveway, and there will be no more of pore ole me shoveling to replace washouts. Whitestone doesn't move.
It woulda cost me a ton more.
I looked up the installed cost from cheapest to average to best.
Crushed Stone – Total Average Cost per square foot | $46.95 | $53.40 | $68.20 |
