Driveways & dirt roads in Montgomery, AL
Driveways & dirt roads in Montgomery, AL
New drives to new houses, roads across the farm, and fixes for the drive you already have.
We build gravel driveways and dirt roads, and we fix the ones that have gone bad. A new drive gets cut in, built up on a solid base and topped with gravel, crowned so water runs off it. Around Montgomery, AL, a lot of our calls are driveway fixes too: potholes, washed-out spots and drives that need resurfacing.
A new house needs a way in, and so does a barn, a pond or the back of the property. On a new build, we cut the drive in during site prep so the builder's trucks can get to the pad, then finish it once the heavy traffic is done.
If you already have a drive that's breaking up, we'll look at why. Potholes usually mean water is sitting in the drive or running down it, and fixing the reason lasts longer than filling the hole.
What’s included
- New gravel drives. Cut in, built up on a solid base and topped with gravel.
- Farm and field roads. Dirt roads to barns, ponds and the back of the property.
- Crown and ditches. Drives crowned to shed water, with ditches where they're needed.
- Culverts. Pipe under the drive where water crosses it.
- Pothole repair. Bad spots dug out, rebuilt and topped.
- Resurfacing. Old drives regraded and given fresh gravel.
Gravel driveways for new homes
On a new build, the drive usually gets roughed in during site prep, so concrete and lumber trucks can reach the pad without tearing up the yard. Once the heavy traffic is done, the drive gets its final shape and gravel. The photos on this page show some of those: a red clay drive curving past a live oak, and gravel drives finished up to the house.
Dirt roads across the farm
Not every road goes to a house. Farm and field roads take trucks and tractors to the barn, the pond and the back pasture, and they need to hold up when it rains. We cut them in, shape a crown so water runs off, and put in a culvert where a low spot or a creek crosses the line.
Driveway fixes: potholes and resurfacing
Filling a pothole helps for a while. Fixing the crown and the ditches fixes why it formed. We'll look at your drive, tell you what it needs, whether that's a patch, a regrade or new gravel, and fix it so it stays fixed longer.
What moves the price of a driveway
How long and wide it is, how much base it needs, the gravel, any culverts and the ground it crosses. A short drive across a dry lawn and a long road down to a creek bottom are different jobs. The estimate is free.
A drive that holds up to trucks
A drive that carries a concrete truck, a log truck or a loaded trailer needs more under it than one that only sees a car. We build the base for what your drive will carry, roll it, and keep the gravel on top where it belongs with a good crown and ditches. Tell us what will be driving on it when we walk the route.
