Expert Gravel Driveway Installation in Central Oregon

Our gravel driveway installation process is meticulous, ensuring a stable, well-draining, and long-lasting surface. This includes:

  • Site Preparation: Thorough excavation and grading of the land to establish the correct slope for drainage and a solid base.
  • Base Material Laying: Compacting layers of crushed aggregate to create a firm and resilient foundation.
  • Gravel Application: Applying high-quality gravel, sourced efficiently through our material delivery services, and grading it evenly for a smooth finish.
  • Edge Definition: Ensuring clear and stable edges to prevent gravel spread and maintain the driveway’s integrity.

A professionally installed gravel driveway not only provides practical access but also enhances the curb appeal of your property.

Private Road Building & Access Solutions

For larger properties, subdivisions, or commercial developments, well-constructed private roads are essential for connectivity and accessibility. We have the expertise to build durable private roadways.

Comprehensive Private Road Construction for Developments

Our private road building services cater to projects requiring more extensive access infrastructure. This comprehensive service includes:

  • Engineering Consultation: Working with engineers to ensure road design meets all specifications and local regulations.
  • Mass Excavation & Grading: Performing significant earthwork to establish the road’s path, including cuts, fills, and extensive grading for optimal water management.
  • Sub-Base & Base Course Installation: Laying and compacting multiple layers of aggregate to create a strong, load-bearing foundation capable of handling various traffic types.
  • Drainage Systems: Integrating culverts, ditches, and other drainage solutions to prevent water accumulation and erosion, ensuring the road’s longevity.

We construct private roads that are built to last, providing safe and reliable access for years to come.

Asphalt Prep & Repair Groundwork

While we focus on the groundwork, proper preparation is key for asphalt surfaces. We ensure your base is perfect before any paving begins, and can also prepare for asphalt repairs.

Base Preparation for Asphalt Driveways & Roads

For clients opting for asphalt driveways or roads, the quality of the underlying base is paramount. Our services ensure your site is perfectly prepared for paving contractors, including:

  • Precision Grading: Achieving the exact desired grade and compaction for the asphalt surface.
  • Stable Sub-Base: Installing and compacting a robust aggregate sub-base that provides essential support and prevents cracking.
  • Edge Containment: Preparing edges to effectively contain the asphalt, ensuring a clean and durable finish.

We lay the strong foundation necessary for a smooth, long-lasting asphalt surface, working efficiently to keep your project on schedule.
