    Driveway Renovations & Track Grading.

    Reshape, re-crown and grade rural driveways and access tracks, water off the surface and corrugations gone.

    What This Means

    Reshape and re-crown rural driveways, grade access tracks, fix corrugations and washouts, and cut new tracks through scrub. Water off the surface, potholes gone, access you can actually use.

    Rural driveways and access tracks don't wear evenly, they wash out on the corners, corrugate on the straights, and sink in the low spots where water pools. Left alone, one wet season turns a driveable track into a full rebuild.

    We grade, reshape and re-crown driveways and tracks so water runs off the surface instead of down it, cut new tracks through scrub and bush where you need access to a back paddock or building site, and re-open old tracks that have been swallowed by regrowth.

    Paired with culverts and spoon drains where the runoff needs somewhere to go, and mulching where scrub is crowding the shoulders, one machine, one operator, the full access job sorted in one visit.

    If Left Unchecked

    What another year costs you.

    Most people put this work off one more season. Here's what actually happens when you do, straight, no fearmongering.

    Read the full breakdown →
    • 01A driveway without proper drainage cuts out one wet season at a time, by the third year you're looking at a full rebuild instead of a maintenance grade.
    • 02Choked or washed-out access tracks stop fire trucks, ambulances and contractors getting to the back of your property when it matters.
    • 03Corrugations wreck vehicles, shake gear loose and slow every trip in and out of your property.
    • 04Old tracks left to regrow get harder to re-open every year, what's a day's work now becomes a week of mulching and grading in five years.

    Common Questions

    Driveway Renovations & Track Grading, asked and answered.

    Can you fix a driveway that's washed out and full of potholes?

    Yes, that's core work. We reshape the surface, re-crown so water sheds to the sides instead of running down the middle, and fix corrugations and washouts. Where drainage is the underlying problem we can pair it with a culvert or spoon drain so the fix actually holds.

    Do you cut new access tracks through scrub?

    Yes. We mulch the vegetation line first, then grade the track surface to shape. One machine, one operator, tracks cut to the width and grade you need for the vehicle or gear that'll use them.

    How often should a rural driveway be graded?

    Depends on rainfall, use and the base underneath. Most rural driveways in Central Victoria benefit from a grade every 12 to 24 months, more often if you're on clay or getting heavy vehicles in and out. A proper re-crown every few years extends the life a lot.

    Do you bring in fresh gravel or work with what's there?

    We work with what's there as a first step, reshaping and re-crowning what's on the ground is usually enough to get a driveway back to serviceable. If the base is worn out and you need fresh gravel or road base carted in, we'll flag it at the quote and organise supply separately.

    Can you re-open an old track that's overgrown?

    Yes, common job. We mulch the regrowth back off the line, then grade the surface underneath. Often we find the original base is still fine once the scrub is off it, which saves you the cost of a full new track.

    Do you maintain fire access tracks to CFA and council widths?

    Yes, part of what we do for APZ and fire season prep. Fire access tracks need to stay trafficable and clear of ladder fuels, and we grade and mulch them to the width your permit or notice specifies.
