What It Is
Grading, Gravel & Site Prep
Grading shapes the ground surface to proper elevation and slope, directing water where it should go. Gravel work involves delivering, spreading, and compacting the right aggregate material for driveways, parking areas, equipment pads, and drainage applications.
Why It Matters
The right approach makes the difference.
Improper grade is the root cause of most drainage problems, foundation issues, and failed landscaping. Getting the grade right from the start prevents thousands in remediation costs down the road.

How It Works
Our Process
Straightforward steps — no surprises, no shortcuts.
Grade Survey
We assess existing elevations, identify high and low points, and establish target grades that drain water away from structures.
Rough Grading
Skid steer and dozer work moves material from high to low areas, establishes major contours, and addresses any significant grade issues.
Gravel Delivery & Spreading
Aggregate material is delivered and spread to the specified depth, then compacted to create a stable, draining surface.
Final Grade & Cleanup
Final hand grading achieves the tight tolerances needed for landscape installations, patio prep, or construction final grade.

Quick Answers
Common Questions
Q.How deep should a gravel driveway be?
A well-built gravel driveway needs 6–8 inches of compacted base material plus 2–4 inches of finish gravel. Skimping on base depth is the number one cause of rutting and washout.
Q.What gravel type should I use for a driveway in Lebanon, TN?
Crush and run (or "crusher run") is the best base material — it compacts tightly and sheds water. #57 limestone is ideal for the top layer: large enough to resist displacement, small enough for comfortable driving.
Q.Can you fix a settled or uneven yard grade?
Yes. We regrade yards regularly to eliminate low spots, correct drainage slope, and level areas for patios or turf. This typically involves topsoil addition, cutting, and filling.
