Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at mathewstreetn@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

The cost of a gravel driveway can vary depending on the size of your driveway, the type of gravel you choose, and how much grading or preparation your property needs. On average, most homeowners in Middle Tennessee can expect to pay between $3 and $6 per square foot installed. We provide a free on-site estimate, so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins. 


Most gravel driveways can be completed in one to three days, depending on the project size and weather conditions. Larger or more complex driveways that require drainage work or a deep base layer may take slightly longer. 


 The best type of gravel depends on your goals and traffic needs.

  • Crushed Stone offers excellent compaction and durability.
  • Limestone Gravel is great for heavy-use driveways.
  • Pea Gravel provides a smooth, decorative finish
  • Decomposed Granite is ideal for the base layer because it compacts tightly.
    We can help you choose the best mix for strength, drainage, and appearance.


Not at all. One of the biggest benefits of a gravel driveway is its low maintenance. You may need to add a fresh layer of gravel every couple of years and occasionally rake or level the surface. We can also provide maintenance services if you prefer a professional touch. 


With proper installation and upkeep, a gravel driveway can last 20 years or more.

Regular maintenance —such as replenishing gravel and maintaining drainage 

—helps it stay in great shape for decades. 


A properly installed driveway shouldn’t. We make sure to grade the surface and create proper drainage so water flows off instead of pooling or washing gravel away.

The right base layer and compacting process are key to long-term stability. 


Yes! When installed correctly with a solid base, a gravel driveway can easily handle heavy vehicles, RVs, and trailers. If you expect frequent heavy traffic, we’ll use a denser gravel base and compaction method to ensure strength and stability. 


Yes — we offer driveway regrading, gravel replacement, and complete resurfacing for existing gravel driveways. Whether your driveway has ruts, washouts, or uneven spots, we can restore it to look and perform like new. 


We provide professional gravel driveway installation throughout Middle Tennessee.

You can call us directly at 931-713-0054 or fill out our online contact form to schedule a free estimate. We’ll assess your property, recommend the best gravel options, and provide a transparent quote — no hidden fees. 


Yes — gravel driveways are significantly more affordable than asphalt or concrete. While asphalt and concrete driveways can cost $8–$15 per square foot, a gravel driveway typically costs $3–$6 per square foot installed.


Not only is the upfront cost lower, but maintenance and repair costs are also much cheaper over time. You can easily refresh a gravel surface by adding new material instead of repaving or resurfacing. This makes gravel one of the most budget-friendly and long-lasting driveway options available in Middle TN.
