GroundsCARE's specialist machinery and expertise repairs potholes, ruts, and water damage on gravel drives. We grind out problem areas and reshape the surface to improve water runoff for longer-lasting results.
POTHOLES, RUTS & RESURFACING
GroundsCARE’s method uses specialised machinery to grind out Potholes and Ruts. We repair and reshape the surface so water runs off for a better gravel drive, for longer.
Our Power Rake grinds and vibrates the gravel bed compacting it to the improved shape and contour so the repair is solid and long lasting. Traditionally, property owners used ‘tractor grading' or applied more gravel but that 'quick fix' never fixed the problem, it just hides it!
GroundsCARE's method resolves the problem, properly.
WHY NOT ASPHALT OR CONCRETE?
Asphalt and concrete resurfacing is expensive. That option requires a thoroughly prepared base, a perfect seal, plus the cost of the new surface.
By comparison, GroundsCARE's quality gravel drive repair and maintenance services saves you money.
RESHAPE, MANAGE WATER
Poor water management causes ruts. Puddles turn into potholes. Our approach reshapes your gravel drive so rainwater quickly runs to the sides. We create and smooth a centre ridge (crown) to manage water runoff and protect your drive.
Where needed, we form gutters along the edge of the drive for better drainage. We can also cut culverts (under or across the drive), to pipe or channel water away.
WIDEN DRIVE
Fire and Emergency New Zealand (FENZ) now require rural driveways to be 4m wide and 4m high for Fire Truck access. We can cut back vegetation and trim trees as needed.
Insurance companies may soon require this maintenance.
EMERGENCY REPAIRS & MAINTENANCE PROGRAMMES
We understand emergencies and we are On-Call for storm damage and repairs. We'll do our best to help.
The best defence against property access threat is driveway maintenance. Ask about a customised maintenance programme to keep your drive in top condition.
