Our approach is unique from the stand point that we do not just dump and run. We actually carve into the earth and remove a couple inches of dirt to ensure a solid base. Once the groundwork is done, we introduce crush & run—a blend of finely crushed stone compacted into place—to form a stable base layer for our driveway.
