Gravel driveway installs and repair in Westerlo, NY

Tarbox Land Services builds new gravel driveways and repairs worn-out ones. That can mean turning a grass two-track into a real gravel drive, regrading a driveway full of potholes and ruts, or spreading fresh crushed stone so the surface is firm and even again.

What does a driveway repair involve?

On a recent driveway repair in Athens, the new gravel was packed down with a plate compactor, and the edges disturbed during the work were seeded and covered with straw so the grass grows back.

Why does my gravel driveway keep getting potholes?

Potholes almost always start with water. When a gravel drive loses its crown and slope, rain collects in the low spots, softens the base and gets pushed out by tires, and in winter that standing water freezes. On a private drive in Athens, Jon cut in a new drainage ditch along one side and crowned the driveway so rain runs off both sides instead of straight down the middle.

How much does it cost to regrade a gravel driveway?

It depends on the driveway: how long and wide it is, how much new stone it needs, and whether it needs drainage work like a new ditch. Tarbox Land Services doesn’t publish set prices. Jon gives free quotes, so call or text (518) 653-9333 or use the quote form.
