Who Needs Dirt Work?

Residential homeowners with long rural driveways are our most frequent clients for gravel driveway maintenance & repair, especially after heavy spring rains cause deep ruts.

We also work closely with local landscapers and builders who need Harley Raking to prep a yard for sod or seed. Municipalities and park districts utilize our pond & shoreline maintenance to keep public water features accessible and structurally sound.

Choosing the Right Solution

If your driveway has potholes but plenty of rock, a simple grading pass to pull the gravel back to the center is usually enough. However, if you are experiencing severe washout repair, we will need to address the underlying drainage repair first by cutting ditches or swales before laying down fresh rock. For yard renovations, Harley Raking is the superior choice over standard tilling, as it leaves a perfectly smooth, rock-free finish.

Project Requirements

1.All underground utilities must be marked prior to any grading or drainage repair.
2.Soil must be dry enough to work; mud prevents proper compaction and grading.
3.Clear access for delivery trucks is required if your project involves the delivery of new gravel or topsoil.

Need to Haul Your Own Rock?

If you're looking to pick up your own gravel, dirt, or topsoil for a project, our sister company, KD Trailer Rentals, has you covered. We offer heavy-duty dump trailers perfect for hauling materials directly to your site.
