What I do

Work I take on

If it needs a tractor and it is not a job for a full excavation crew, it is probably something I can do. If it is not, I will tell you who to call.

Driveway grading

Reshaping the crown, filling ruts and potholes, and cutting the ditches back open so the drive sheds water instead of holding it.

Box blade · Landscape rake

Land & brush clearing

Taking back overgrown lots, fence lines, and trails that have not been touched in years. Brush, saplings, and briars.

Brush hog · Grapple

Pad & site leveling

Flat, compacted ground for a shed, barn, shop, or camper. Cut and filled to grade so what you put on it sits level.

Box blade · Bucket

Post holes

Fence posts, gate posts, and deck footings. Straight, plumb, and dug to the depth you need rather than the depth that is easy.

Auger

Field & pasture mowing

Keeping pasture, hay ground, and vacant lots knocked down before it gets away from you and turns into clearing work.

Rotary cutter

Hauling & spreading

Gravel, topsoil, and mulch moved and spread where you want it, instead of left in a pile at the end of the drive.

Bucket · Rear blade

How it should be built

Why a drive washes out

Nearly every gravel drive fails for the same reason: the water has nowhere to go. A drive with a proper crown sheds to the ditch on both sides. A flat one holds water, softens underneath, and turns to ruts by spring.

When I regrade a drive, I am rebuilding that crown and opening the ditches back up so it stays put. Adding rock to a drive that does not drain is money down the hill.

Typical section. The crown is the whole job — everything else follows from it.

Before and after

A quarter mile of gravel drive that had not been graded in six years. Two days of work.

Before: a rutted gravel driveway holding standing water.
Before — ruts holding water after a wet spring
After: the same driveway regraded with a crown and open ditches.
After — crowned, rolled, and ditches reopened

Who shows up

Just me and the tractor

There is no crew and no dispatcher. You call me, I answer, and I am the one who turns up to do the work.

Replace this paragraph with a few honest lines about yourself: how long you have been running equipment, what you did before this, and why you would rather grade a drive properly than come back to it next year. Plain is better than polished.

Common questions

Where do you work?

Greene County and about 30 miles around it

Farther out is usually still fine, especially for a few days’ work. Call and ask.

What does it cost?

It depends on how much ground there is and what shape it is in. Most work is priced by the hour with a minimum, and bigger jobs get a flat price once I have seen them. I will give you the number before I start, not after.

How soon can you get to me?

Usually within a week or two, weather depending. Wet ground puts everything back, so spring runs slower than fall.

Do you supply the gravel?

I can arrange it or you can have it delivered yourself, whichever works out cheaper for you. Either way I will tell you how much you actually need so you are not paying for a load you do not use.

Are you insured?

Yes, general liability. I can send you a certificate if your lender or HOA needs one on file.
