Common Issues with Gravel Driveways

Gravel driveways are a popular choice for homeowners due to their affordability and rustic charm. However, over time, they can develop common issues that impact their functionality and aesthetics. Potholes, erosion, and uneven surfaces are some of the problems homeowners often face.


Potholes not only make your driveway look unsightly but can also cause damage to your vehicles. Erosion can lead to the loss of gravel and create uneven surfaces, making it difficult to drive or walk on. These issues compromise the appearance of your property and pose safety hazards.
