New Driveway & Lot Install
For new installations, we follow a systematic approach to ensure a durable and aesthetically pleasing gravel driveway or parking lot. The process typically involves the following steps:
​
-
Evaluation and Planning: Our team starts by evaluating the site and discussing your specific requirements and preferences. We consider factors such as slope, drainage, and the intended use of the driveway or parking area. This assessment allows us to create a detailed plan that aligns with your needs.
-
Excavation and Site Preparation: If necessary, we will excavate the area to establish a stable foundation. We remove any vegetation, debris, or obstructions that could affect the quality and longevity of the installation. Proper site preparation is crucial to ensure optimal compaction and long-term performance.
-
Grading and Leveling: Once the area is cleared, we carefully grade and level the surface to achieve the desired slope and evenness. This step helps ensure proper water drainage and prevents pooling or erosion issues.
-
Installation of Geotextile Fabric: To enhance the stability and longevity of the gravel surface, we often install geotextile fabric. This permeable fabric acts as a barrier, preventing the migration of soil particles while allowing for proper drainage. It helps minimize weed growth and increases the overall strength of the gravel layer.
-
Gravel Placement: We select high-quality gravel that suits your preferences in terms of size, color, and texture. At Simmons Contracting, we skillfully spread and level the gravel evenly, ensuring a smooth and visually appealing surface. We take into account factors such as compaction and layer thickness to optimize durability.
Existing Driveways & Lots
For existing driveways and parking lots, we can revitalize and improve their appearance and functionality through various techniques:
​
-
Gravel Replenishment: Over time, gravel surfaces can become worn or displaced. We assess the condition of your existing driveway or parking lot and determine if additional gravel is needed. We carefully blend new gravel with the existing surface to achieve a seamless and consistent appearance.
-
Grading and Resurfacing: If your existing surface has become uneven or shows signs of erosion, we perform grading and resurfacing to restore its smoothness and functionality. This involves regrading the area to correct slope issues and applying a fresh layer of gravel for enhanced aesthetics and performance.
-
Maintenance and Repairs: We offer maintenance services, including grading touch-ups, weed control, and drainage solutions, to keep your gravel driveway or parking lot in optimal condition. Additionally, we can address any specific repair needs, such as filling potholes or addressing drainage issues, to ensure a safe and well-maintained surface.
