Because we run a single skid steer with multiple attachments, we can often clear, grade, and clean up aEdwardsville property in one visit instead of scheduling several pieces of equipment across multiple days.

Gravel driveways develop potholes, washboard ruts, and washouts over time — especially on longer rural drives and after heavy rain. Repair usually means re-grading the surface, re-crowning so water sheds to the sides, and redistributing or adding gravel where it has thinned out or washed away.
Routine maintenance keeps a gravel driveway in shape and prevents small problems from turning into washouts. A periodic grade and top-up is far less expensive than rebuilding a driveway that has rutted through to the subgrade. We can assess the current condition and recommend whether a re-grade, a gravel top-up, or a more involved repair is the right approach.
Grading levels uneven ground and fixes drainage issues so water moves where it should instead of pooling. Harley raking uses a power rake attachment to level and prepare soil, removing rocks and debris to create a smooth surface for seed, sod, or gravel. It is commonly used for pad prep before a shed, pole barn, or garage is set.
We also handle light dirt work and material spreading as part of site prep. The right service depends on the existing ground conditions and what the area will be used for next, so we evaluate the site before recommending an approach.
