Gravel Driveway Construction (Shorter than 100 Feet)
A gravel driveway shorter than 100 feet is a practical and cost-effective solution for residential properties. These driveways typically feature a base layer of larger stones for stability and a top layer of smaller gravel for a smooth finish. The driveway is designed to provide easy access to the home while blending seamlessly with the surrounding landscape.
Gravel Drive Construction (Over 100 Feet, Including Multi-Mile Estate Drives)
A gravel drive over 100 feet, including multi-mile estate drives, is ideal for larger properties such as estates, farms, or ranches. These drives are designed to handle more traffic and provide a durable and long-lasting surface. The construction involves a thicker base layer and careful planning to ensure proper drainage and stability over long distances.
Gravel Road Construction Through Forest, Wooded, or Remote Areas
A gravel road through forested, wooded, or remote areas is often used for farms, ranches, or industries like logging and mining. These roads are designed to handle heavy vehicles and provide reliable access in challenging terrains. The construction involves a robust base layer and careful consideration of the natural landscape to ensure durability and minimal environmental impact.
Gravel Parking Area Construction & Planning
Gravel parking areas can vary in size and purpose, from small residential driveways to large commercial lots and heavy equipment storage areas. These areas are designed to provide a stable and durable surface for parking vehicles while being cost-effective and easy to install. They can also be paved over with asphalt later if use requirements change.

Past Excavation Projects
The above image shows Texoma Excavation & Construction digging a new power supply ditch and tying into the existing live power supply near Melissa, Texas. The paver stones were salvaged to be replaced. All the PVC, electrical conduit, phone lines, and small electrical lines that were destroyed were anticipated.
Pond building is a complex process that requires careful planning and execution. After all the planning, the first construction step is excavation of the area where the pond will be located. The pond excavation work shown above was near Montague, Texas. When this pond is full, it will be 7′ 2″ deep at its deepest point.
Residential drainage excavation work done near Denison, Texas. This client had some significant drainage problems during periods of high-volume runoff and tried to excavate a ditch to channel water away from his house. We were hired to polish the existing ditch and spread some grass seed.
