The Problem 

Improperly graded or drained driveways and roads often suffer from erosion by storm waters, which is especially true in West MI’s hilly areas. When left uncorrected, these problems will continue to deteriorate your investment.

Solutions – Four Key Areas 

1. Materials
   • • Utilizing the correct materials for the application is a vital factor to consider. There are often products that offer superior performance, costing little more than traditional gravel.
2. Grading
   • • Ensuring that gravel and stone driveways have the proper grading has a significant impact on water run-off and erosion control. We have the equipment and knowledge to provide the appropriate solution.
3. Drainage
   • • Ensuring that the landscape has the proper drainage will assist in directing and controlling stormwater run-off. Utilizing various drain techniques (French, channel, trench), culverts, and the use of check dams, when needed, we develop and install solutions to stop your erosion problems.
4. Geotextiles
   • • In challenging situations where grading and proper drainage will not correct the issue or alter the landscape in a way that does not align with the property’s overall vision, geotextiles can provide a superior solution. These products can be extremely effective at holding a stone driveway in place.
