Gravel Driveway Installation & Repair in Delaware County, OH
A gravel drive that sheds water instead of holding it — cut in new, or brought back from washboard and potholes.
Rural and semi-rural Delaware County runs on gravel drives, and most of the ones that fail early failed for the same two reasons: no crown and no base. Water that cannot run off a drive runs down it, and a drive with no compacted base pushes stone into soft ground until it disappears.
For new drives we cut the path, establish a base, and build a crown so water sheds to the sides. For existing drives we regrade the surface, reestablish that crown, address the spots that hold water, and top with the right material rather than just dumping stone over potholes.
Adding fresh gravel over an uncrowned, unrepaired drive is the most common mistake we get called to undo. It looks fixed for one season and then the same potholes come back in exactly the same places, because nothing about the drainage changed.

Gravel Driveway Installation & Repair — Questions, Answered
Why does my gravel driveway keep developing potholes?
Almost always water plus a weak base. If the surface is flat instead of crowned, water sits on it, softens what is underneath, and traffic pumps stone down into the mud. Fixing it means restoring the crown and the base, not adding another layer of stone on top.
What kind of gravel is right?
Typically a compacting base material underneath with a driving surface on top. A single size of clean, round stone stays loose and pushes around under tires forever. The blend matters more than the quantity.
How often does a gravel drive need maintenance?
A properly crowned and based drive needs periodic regrading and occasional topping rather than constant repair. Drives that need work every single year are usually telling you the base or the crown was never right.
