Years of traffic pack gravel down into the dirt until your driveway is mud, weeds, and ruts — but the stone is still there. Instead of paying for truckloads of new gravel, we use the machine to upturn and loosen the packed stone you already own, re-grade it, and bring the driveway back to life for a fraction of the cost.
Driveway restoration is priced differently: it’s a flat, per-job price — the 4-hour minimum does NOT apply — and it typically runs about 1/3 the cost of buying and spreading new gravel.
How Driveway Restoration Works
- Packed gravel loosened and lifted back to the surface
- Crown and drainage re-graded so water sheds off
- Potholes and ruts worked out, not just filled
- New stone only if you actually need it — honest answer first
What It Costs vs. New Gravel
Every driveway gets a flat per-job quote up front — walk it with us, get one number, done. No hourly meter, no 4-hour minimum. A tri-axle of limestone runs real money before it’s even spread; restoring the stone you already own typically costs about one-third of new gravel. Get a free estimate →
