Driveway & Walkway Installation
Driveway and walkway installation built for strength, beauty, and longevity. Cruger Contracting LLC delivers premium hardscapes with expert grading, drainage, and craftsmanship that last through New York’s seasons.
Why Choose Cruger Contracting for Driveway & Walkway Installation
Across the Hudson Valley, Cruger Contracting LLC installs custom driveways and walkways that enhance homes with both visual appeal and performance. Our process includes proper excavation, base compaction, grading for drainage, and material installation following industry-best practices. We use materials engineered to endure New York’s freeze-thaw cycles while maintaining aesthetic quality year after year.
Choose from classic pavers, natural stone, decorative concrete, or gravel—all installed to the same high standards of craftsmanship and precision. Every project is tailored to your property, ensuring perfect transitions, clean lines, and strong foundations. Our installations not only boost curb appeal but also improve accessibility, safety, and long-term property value.
Engineered Foundations That Endure
We build driveways and walkways on properly compacted aggregate bases designed to withstand New York’s seasonal cycles. This prevents settling, cracking, and structural shifting for decades of reliable performance.
Built-In Drainage Protection
Our drainage-focused designs prevent water damage and erosion. Every installation includes precise grading, slope adjustment, and integrated water management for a surface that stays strong and dry.
Timeless Materials & Finishes
We use top-quality materials—from elegant stone to reinforced concrete—selected for both style and durability. Each hardscape is installed with exacting attention to detail for a refined, lasting finish.
