How we execute gravel driveways for Palisade properties
A professionally installed gravel driveway offers a highly durable, cost-effective, and aesthetically pleasing entry to your property. However, a driveway is only as strong as its foundation. Our installation process focuses heavily on sub-grade preparation, ensuring long-term stability and eliminating future washouts.
We begin by grading the terrain to ensure proper directional water runoff. Sitting water inevitably destroys gravel paths, so we utilize precision laser grading to guarantee precise angles. Following the grade, we install heavy-duty geotextile fabric to prevent mud from swallowing your new gravel over time.
We source high-quality, localized crushed stone and aggregate. Our compacted layers lock together to create a solid driving surface that resists rutting from heavy vehicles or harsh winter plowing.

How do you prevent weeds from growing in the gravel?
We install professional-grade geotextile weed barrier fabric beneath the aggregate layers.
What should I do if my existing gravel driveway has ruts?
We offer driveway refreshing services where we grade out the ruts and apply a fresh topcoat of compacted gravel.
Will the gravel wash away in a heavy storm?
Proper crowning and grading, which we consider standard on all installs, prevents severe water channeling and washouts.
