What Our Customers Say

  • Thank you, Mark and Lori, for the fantastic job on my driveway last Friday! It looks AMAZING!! Mark also was able to help grade a small hill just off my yard line and even helped moved a huge boulder from my lawn into a flower bed near my house while he was here with his heavy equipment. It was extremely nice to have great people who care come out and do an incredible job. Family Grade & Gravel, your professionalism and outstanding work are unmatched! P.S. my wife was blown away! She can’t believe how you propped that boulder up…PERFECT! Thanks again.

  • Family Grade and Gravel is Awesome! I live back in the woods and just had a pole barn put on the property. My drive way was in rough shape with all the truck traffic in and out of the driveway during the project. Mark came out and gave a good estimate and shared his ideas. He kept in close contact with me as the project date came closer. Even helped me find a tree service to take out a few trees and stumps. I was fortunate to be home while he did the driveway. He showed me step by step what he was doing and why he was doing it. I am already planning my next project to finish up the landscaping and using Family Grade and Gravel without hesitation. Thanks for making a difficult project easy Mark and Family Grade and Gravel!

    So glad I called Family Grade and Gravel after a frustrating experience with a different company. Mark and Lori graded, leveled and filled 2 bases with limestone for out-buildings being constructed off-site and delivered. I can't say enough good things about the experience. They had both bases completed in one day and worked until dusk to get it done. They responded very quickly to all my texts and phone calls. Great people, easy to work with and fair prices. It's such a relief to know who I'm going to call when I need grading done now. Already planning on having them back for some additional work. Highly recommend.

    Awesome service! Mark did such a professional job, our driveway was more dirt and mud then gravel when he started, now it looks fantastic! No more mud getting into the house. I would highly recommend this company to anyone in need of great service, and a nice looking driveway! We will use them in the future!

  • We had been dealing with an uneven driveway for years. One call to Family Grade & Gravel fixed the issue. I called for an estimate and the owner, Mark, returned my call quickly. At my home, Mark walked me through what he would do, why I was having the issues, and recommendations for future maintenance. His pricing was competitive and fair. He was very personable and friendly. I will definitely be using the service again in the future. A great family-owned small business!

    After receiving multiple estimates, we hired Mark and his crew to regrade and gravel our long, winding, inclined driveway. They arrived as scheduled and immediately got to work. Upon completion of the project later in the day, they left no trace of having been there with the exception of our brand new beautiful driveway. All work was performed exactly as promised with exceptional detail. Outstanding customer service, pride in their work and fair pricing are what we received from Family Grade & Gravel. Thank you Mark and crew, very happy customers here.

  • Fantastic work done on a mess of a driveway. We have two driveways that were full of low spots that filled with water and the slope caused the garage to fill with water when it rained. Mark fixed it all!! Completely redid the slope and added gravel. The driveway has never looked so good! Great job, great company!!

  • My husband and I hired Mark and Lori to grade our very long gravel driveway and around our barn. Lori pulled some weeds around our barn - which we didn’t ask to have done. It’s so refreshing to work with people that are professional, on time, caring, particular about their work, charge a reasonable price and are great people too. Thank you, thank you, Mark & Lori! We have more work for you! πŸ’œ

    Mark and Lori did an outstanding job repairing and upgrading our old washed out driveway. There will be no more getting stuck in our own driveway in the spring! Great communication, fair pricing, professional and friendly. We have already talked with Mark about grading plans for the rest of our property. Highly recommend and will definitely use them again in the future!

  • Mark and Lori did such a nice job on restoring my long neglected drive. It now has clean lines and really gave my house a face lift improving curb appeal. They even added more by removing an old steel post and wrapping around my mailbox giving that extra touch! They were so great to work with and did such a good job that I highly recommend them. Really nice people and so easy to talk with. Thank you Mark and Lori!

    Very pleased with the quality of the service. I met Mark in our 1500ft driveway as I drove down in the car to warn him that our 38ft motorhome was headed down the driveway. I watched Mark go into overdrive with his trusty tractor, going above & beyond to ensure that we were satisfied with his work. Well, we are MORE than satisfied: we are THRILLED! The quality of the work is excellent, with a reasonable price & good composition of the gravel. Highly recommend this company!
