Learn more ›This driveway had settled and held water after every rain. We brought in new granular, spread and compacted it in lifts with the skid steer, and finished it with a slight crown.
The old steel culvert under this driveway had rusted out and the entrance was sinking every spring. We dug it out, bedded a new culvert at the right grade, backfilled with crushed stone and rebuilt the entrance so the ditch flows and the driveway holds up to traffic.
Embrun has grown fast, with new streets and subdivisions filling in around the village. Every one of those homes needs a solid driveway base, a finished grade that sheds water away from the foundation — and often a fix for a back yard that never drained right after construction.
We're about ten minutes away in Russell, so Embrun jobs are easy to fit in quickly. Like the rest of Russell Township, the ground here is mostly clay, so we build driveway bases thicker and make sure every grade has somewhere for the water to go.
We're an owner-operated crew that takes pride in the finish: we walk every site before we price it, show up when we say we will, and leave it graded out clean. That's how we've built our reputation across Eastern Ontario, one job at a time.
