Professional-grade service to the types of projects that matter
General Driveway Repair & Grading
A properly maintained gravel driveway isn’t just about looks — it’s about longevity, safety, and function. Over time, ruts, potholes, and drainage issues can damage vehicles, cause pooling water, and lead to costly repairs. Regular grading and resurfacing keeps your driveway level, improves water runoff, and extends the life of your gravel investment. Whether it’s your home, acreage, or business — a smooth, well-maintained surface sets the right first impression.
Trenching
Proper trenching is critical when installing utilities like electrical, water, or gas lines. Depth matters — not just for function, but for safety and compliance. Shallow trenches can lead to exposed lines, freeze risk, or accidental damage during future digging. At Stonehouse, we follow utility guidelines and local codes to ensure trenches are cut to the correct depth, with clean, level bases for conduit or pipe laying. Whether it’s a power line to a garage or water to a shop, we make sure it’s done right, the first time.
Forest Mulching
Clearing overgrown fence lines or dense brush doesn’t have to mean a mess of burning, hauling, or uprooting. With forestry mulching, we use specialized equipment to grind trees, shrubs, and vegetation into natural mulch — right where it stands. Our fence line mulching service restores access and visibility along property lines, making room for new fencing or simply cleaning things up. For larger areas, forestry mulching is ideal for trail cutting, reclaiming pasture, or thinning treed sections without disturbing the soil. It's fast, efficient, and leaves behind a clean, usable surface.
Screw Pile Installation & Post Hole Augering
Whether you're building a deck, fence, or outbuilding, a solid foundation starts with proper ground prep. We offer precision screw pile installation for fast, reliable anchoring — no concrete required, no wait time to build. For traditional projects, our post hole augering delivers clean, accurate holes to the depth and diameter you need, saving hours of manual digging. From acreages to estates, we’ve got the gear and the know-how to get your project off the ground — quickly and professionally.
