Gravel Driveway Repair in Columbus OH
The Gravel Driveway Dilemma
Is your gravel driveway giving you headaches? You're not alone! Many Columbus homeowners struggle with bumpy rides, muddy messes, and constant maintenance.
Picture this: It's a rainy day, and you're trying to back out of your driveway. Suddenly, your tires start spinning, and you're stuck in a muddy rut. Or maybe you've noticed that your once-smooth driveway now looks like a mini mountain range. These are just a few of the problems that can pop up when you don't take care of your gravel driveway.
Ignoring these issues can lead to bigger problems down the road. Your car might get damaged, or worse, someone could trip and fall. Plus, a neglected driveway can make your whole property look shabby. But don't worry! With the right help, you can turn your troublesome driveway into a smooth, good-looking, and long-lasting surface. That's where professional repair and maintenance come in handy.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the signs that my gravel driveway needs repair?
Look out for these red flags:
- Potholes or deep ruts
- Bare spots where you can see the soil
- Water pooling after rain
- Gravel washing away to the sides
- A bumpy, uneven surface
- Plants growing through the gravel
If you spot any of these, it's time to give us a call!
Can you repair my driveway in winter?
While we can work year-round, winter repairs can be tricky. Frozen ground and snow can make it hard to grade properly. But don't worry! We can still help with emergency fixes and plan for a full repair when the weather improves.
Do I need a permit to repair my gravel driveway in Columbus?
Most simple repairs don't need a permit. But if we're changing your driveway's size or how it connects to the street, we might need one. Don't stress about this - we'll handle all the permit paperwork if it's needed.
How much does gravel driveway repair typically cost?
Every driveway is unique, so costs can vary. It depends on things like:
- How big your driveway is
- How much repair it needs
- What kind of gravel we use
We always provide a free estimate before starting work, so you'll know exactly what to expect.
What type of gravel do you recommend for driveways in Columbus?
We often use a mix of #57 limestone and crusher run. This combo gives you a stable base and a smooth top layer. But we might suggest something different based on your specific needs and budget. We'll explain our recommendation during your free assessment.
How do you address drainage issues in gravel driveways?
Drainage is key to a long-lasting driveway. We might:
- Regrade your driveway to create a slight slope
- Install French drains or culverts
- Create swales (shallow ditches) to direct water
- Use geotextile fabric under the gravel to prevent sinking
We'll choose the best solution for your property's unique drainage needs.
Can you convert my gravel driveway to asphalt or concrete?
Yes, we can! While we specialize in gravel, we can prepare your driveway for paving. We'll grade the surface, improve drainage, and create a solid base. Then, we work with trusted paving partners to finish the job. Just let us know if you're interested in this option.
Do you offer any warranties on your gravel driveway repairs?
We stand behind our work! We offer a 1-year warranty on our gravel driveway repairs. This covers any issues related to our workmanship. We'll also give you tips on how to maintain your driveway to keep it in great shape for years to come.
