Hillside driveways

Most driveways climb or drop to the street. We compact in sections, support edges and design drainage.

Typical work

Replacement, overlays where the base is sound, edge rebuilds, crack sealing and sealcoat.

Planning

We walk the property, measure, and provide a written estimate with each item listed.

Typical Castle Hill projects

Castle Hill's homes sit on sloped ground near Tice Creek, and many driveways climb steeply from the street. The usual problems are cracked surfaces from age and sun, broken downhill edges and low spots near garages. We rebuild failed sections with compacted base, add edge support, and design drainage that carries water to the street without crossing a neighbor's lot. With 80 percent of households being families and low vacancy, most projects are for long-term owners. Where the driveway is still structurally sound, crack sealing and sealcoat keep it in good condition for years.

Near the creek

Homes close to Tice Creek can have damp subgrade. We check for soft spots before paving and replace weak soil with compacted aggregate.
