Gravel Driveways in Sanford, ME
A driveway is a structure, not a pile of gravel. The ones that stay smooth through mud season were built from the bottom up: geotextile where soils are soft, clean base material, a crown that sheds water, and ditching that gives that water somewhere to go.
What's included
What we handle
- New driveway construction from cleared ground to finished surface
- Rebuilds and regrading of washboarded or potholed driveways
- Crown and pitch shaping so water runs off, not down the middle
- Culverts, ditching, and drainage swales
- Surface gravel selection matched to slope and use
Why it matters
The part you can't see
Mud season is the test every Maine driveway eventually takes. Frost heave and spring melt destroy driveways that were surfaced without base work. We build the base to carry weight when the ground is soft, then shape the surface so melt water leaves fast.
Built for mud season
Base depth and material chosen for the soil under it, not a one-size spec.
Water managed
Crown, ditches, and culverts that move water off the surface before it makes ruts.
Plowable
A surface built tight and true plows clean in winter without scattering half the gravel into the yard.
