We start every project with proper excavation, removing vegetation and debris, then grading the sub-base for ideal drainage. This step is critical for long-term stability and water control.
We supply quality gravel and stone blends suited to your specific needs. After delivery, our crew spreads it evenly using professional equipment to build a smooth and durable driving surface.
A solid gravel driveway is only as good as its compaction. We use heavy rollers to compress each layer, reducing future movement and ensuring a clean, finished appearance.
Over time, gravel driveways can develop ruts or drainage issues. We offer seasonal maintenance and regrading services to keep your driveway looking great and functioning properly year-round.

A gravel driveway is a low-cost, permeable solution for residential and rural vehicle access. It typically consists of several layers: a sub-base of crushed stone, a mid-layer of aggregate, and a top layer of smaller gravel for a finished look. Popular for their affordability and ease of maintenance, gravel driveways are often used for cottages, farms, and large rural lots. Proper grading, base preparation, and compaction are essential to prevent potholes, washouts, and uneven surfaces. With regular upkeep, a well-built gravel driveway can last 10–20 years.
Before hiring a contractor, ask about their process for grading, base preparation, and drainage. A reputable contractor should be able to explain their layer structure, equipment used, and how they ensure long-term stability. Get clarity on gravel types, load capacity, and turnaround time.
Gravel driveways are ideal for properties with good soil drainage, minimal elevation change, and lower traffic volume. If your site is steep or prone to water issues, your contractor may recommend additional drainage layers, edging, or geotextile fabric for added durability.
