Ground preparation and grading
Removing topsoil, digging and grading before crushed stone. The base gets the right fall and level so water does not sit under the surface.

Roadworks and ground preparation for building roads
Grading, digging and crushed-stone laying as the base for a car park, driveway and yard.
A road and a yard have to carry a load. We prepare the ground, grade, dig and lay a crushed-stone base for a car park, a yard, a driveway or a storage yard.
If excavation or demolition is needed before the base, those stages can come from the same partner. A foundation pit is on the excavation page.

Laying crushed stone and yards
A crushed-stone base and compaction for a car park, driveway, yard or storage yard. The base suits a crushed-stone surface or the next layer.
A base that carries the next layer
Crushed stone and graded soil decide whether a yard or a road stays put. We do that preparation with our own machines.
- Grading, digging and crushed stone as one road job.
- A car park, driveway and yard follow the same logic.
- Excavation or demolition before the base can be the same order.
- Roadworks across Estonia.
Frequently asked questions
Do you lay asphalt?
We build the base for a road or a yard: ground preparation, grading and crushed stone. The surface that goes on that base is agreed separately.
How thick should the crushed-stone base be?
It depends on the soil and the load. A car park for cars is usually at least 15–20 cm compacted; heavier traffic and weak soil need more.
Are a driveway and a car park the same job?
Yes. Both need prepared ground and a crushed-stone base. The difference is the area and the load.
Does a foundation pit come under roadworks?
Digging a foundation is excavation. If the same site also has a yard or a road, we put them in one sequence.
