Driveways & Gravel Delivery

At Tollefson Excavating, we specialize in the installation, repair, and maintenance of durable gravel driveways. In Minnesota, a driveway has to withstand harsh winters and heavy spring thaws; that’s why we focus on proper drainage, crowning, and high-quality materials to ensure your access road stays solid year-round.

With over 12 years of experience serving Moose Lake and the surrounding areas, we provide homeowners and cabin owners with professional-grade surfaces that look great and last longer.

PROFESSIONAL DRIVEWAY INSTALLATION YOU CAN TRUST

A great driveway is more than just a layer of gravel. It starts with a well-prepared base and expert grading to ensure water flows away from the surface rather than pooling in the middle. Whether you are building a new access road for a cabin or need to refresh an existing driveway that has become riddled with potholes, we use the right machinery and techniques to get the job done right the first time.

Our Working Process

01.

Site Prep & Grading

We evaluate the natural slope of your land and perform the initial grading to ensure a stable sub-base and proper water runoff.
02.

Material Selection & Delivery

We deliver the appropriate aggregate for your specific needs—whether it’s Class 5 gravel for a smooth finish or larger rock for a solid base.
03.

Spreading & Compaction

Our team spreads the material evenly and compacts it thoroughly, finishing with a proper “crown” to ensure your driveway stands up to the elements.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I regrade my gravel driveway?
In our climate, we recommend a professional regrading every 1 to 2 years, or whenever you notice significant washouts or potholes forming. This prevents the sub-base from becoming damaged.
What is the best type of gravel for a Minnesota driveway?
We often recommend "Class 5" gravel because it contains a mix of rocks and fine material that packs down into a hard, durable surface that resists shifting.
Can you fix a driveway that constantly washes away during heavy rain?
Yes. This is usually a drainage issue. We can install culverts and regrade the surface to ensure water is directed away from the road, preventing future erosion.
