Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some of the most common questions our customers ask about gravel driveways and our services.
Question 1: What types of gravel do you offer and what surfaces are they best for?
We offer different types of gravel depending on your needs. For example, 3/8” minus with fines provides a smoother, tighter finish and works well for light-use driveways or walkways. 5/8” minus gravel is more durable and ideal for driveways with regular traffic, offering strength and stability. During your free estimate, we’ll recommend the best option for your property.
Question 2: How do you handle drainage and prevent erosion on gravel driveways?
Proper drainage is essential for a long-lasting driveway. We carefully grade and shape the surface to direct water away from your driveway and prevent pooling. When needed, we also install drainage solutions such as culverts or ditches to protect against erosion and keep your road strong over time.
Question 3: Do you provide excavation, grading, and maintenance services as well?
Yes! In addition to new gravel installations, we also handle excavation, site preparation, regrading, and ongoing maintenance. If your existing driveway has ruts, potholes, or uneven areas, our maintenance regrade service can restore a smooth, durable surface without the cost of a full rebuild.
Question 4: What areas do you serve and how soon can you get started?
We proudly serve Island County, Skagit County, Snohomish County, Whatcom County, and King County. Our scheduling depends on the size of your project and the current season, but we always strive to start quickly and complete work on time. Contact us today for availability.
