New driveways

A gravel driveway lasts or fails based on what's under the rock and where the water goes. I lay out the route, cut and shape the ground, and build it so rain runs off instead of sitting in ruts.

On soft or mixed ground I put fabric down over the graded subgrade before the base rock goes on. It helps keep the rock from working down into the dirt over time.

Repairs

Washouts, ruts, thin spots, and driveways that turn to mud after a hard rain. I repair the base, reshape the surface, and fix the reason it failed, which is usually water. That can mean a culvert where the drive crosses a low spot or ditch, or work on the drainage next to it.

If water is the main problem, see drainage & swales.

How it works

  1. Call or text. Tell me where the property is and what you want done.
  2. I come out and look. I walk the ground with you and give you the estimate on site. It's free.
  3. I do the work myself. I run the machine. There's no crew handoff.

Questions

Do you build new driveways and repair old ones?

Both. New drives, base repair, culverts, and drainage are all part of what I do.

Can you fix a driveway that keeps washing out?

Usually, yes. A washout is almost always a water problem, so I look at where the water is coming from and where it needs to go, not just fill the hole.

How do I get an estimate?

Call or text (830) 649-9736. I'll come out, look at the site, and give you the estimate there. It costs nothing.
