Our Gravel Driveway & Surface Services
From new driveway construction and pothole repairs to decorative stone pathways and French drain gravel systems.
Gravel Driveway Installation
A well-installed gravel driveway provides outstanding durability, water drainage, and rustic curb appeal at a fraction of asphalt or concrete costs. We excavate soft topsoil, lay a solid compacted base, and finish with clean aggregate.
Installation Process Includes:
- Site clearing, excavation, and vegetable soil removal
- Proper heavy-duty aggregate base layer compaction
- Professional-grade gravel selection (#57 limestone, crusher run, etc.)
- Vibratory roller compaction for long-term vehicle stability
- Trench bed edging, containment borders, and drainage slope grading
Driveway Repair & Maintenance
Heavy rain and vehicle traffic can create unsightly ruts, potholes, and washed-out gravel borders over time. We restore old driveways with fresh gravel replenishment, re-grading, and compaction.
Repair Services Include:
- Pothole, rut, and low-spot filling & mechanical compaction
- Fresh gravel replenishment and uniform spreading
- Edge restoration, containment border cleanup, and weed barrier
- Crown re-grading and cross-slope drainage correction
Drainage Gravel & French Drains
Uncontrolled rainwater can erode driveways and compromise house foundations. We design and install gravel drainage systems that safely collect and direct runoff away from structures.
Drainage Solutions Include:
- French drain trench excavation, perforated pipe & aggregate backfill
- Dry creek beds and decorative swales for heavy rain runoff
- Foundation perimeter drainage gravel to protect basements & slabs
- Erosion control riprap stone placement for hillsides & ditches
Professional Aggregate & Gravel Selection
We source top-grade crushed limestone, river rock, and aggregates tailored to your project's load needs:
#57 Limestone
Standard clean driveway stone, excellent drainage & traction
Crusher Run (Dense Grade)
Packs tightly with stone dust for solid, rut-resistant base layers
River Rock & Creek Stone
Decorative smooth round stones for dry creek beds & accents
Pea Gravel
Smooth small pebbles ideal for garden walkways & patio borders
Recycled Concrete Aggregate
Cost-effective, heavy-duty eco option for sub-base construction
