GRAVEL DRIVEWAY & PAD INSTALLATION
IN PIERCE COUNTY, WA
Expert Gravel Driveway & Pad Installation in Pierce County
Looking for a durable and affordable driveway or parking pad solution in Tacoma, Puyallup, or anywhere in Pierce County? Gravel driveways offer the perfect combination of strength, drainage, and natural beauty for residential and commercial properties.
Our gravel installation service uses premium materials including pea gravel, crushed stone, and recycled asphalt to create surfaces that handle heavy loads while maintaining excellent water drainage. Every project starts with proper site preparation to ensure long-lasting results.
We begin with thorough excavation and grading to create a stable base. The ground gets shaped with proper slope for water runoff, preventing puddles and erosion. Our team compacts the subgrade to support vehicle weight without settling or shifting over time.
We Use Premium Gravel Materials for Pierce County Properties
Choosing the right gravel makes all the difference in driveway performance and appearance. We offer several material options to match your needs and budget.
Pea Gravel: Small rounded stones create smooth, attractive surfaces perfect for residential driveways. Excellent drainage and comfortable to walk on.
Crushed Stone: Angular rocks pack tightly for maximum stability. Ideal for heavy use areas and commercial properties. Available in multiple sizes.
Recycled Asphalt: Cost-effective base layer material that binds well and provides strong foundation support.
River Rock: Decorative option for lighter traffic areas. Adds natural beauty to property entrances.
Our Gravel Installation Process
Franky’s Excavation can create you a durable driveway in just 1–3 days through four key steps:
Site Prep: We clear, grade, and slope the land to prevent future issues.
Base Layer: A thick layer of large crushed stone provides stability and drainage.
Top Layer: Fine gravel is spread and compacted for a smooth, attractive finish.
Final Grading: We verify the slope for water management.
You can drive on your new driveway immediately.

Why Choose a Gravel Driveway or Pad in Pierce County
Gravel driveways cost much less than asphalt or concrete. Typical installation runs between $1.50 and $3.00 per square foot in our area. An affordable option delivers professional results without breaking your budget.
