Pothole & driveway repair
in Gore.
From town-edge lifestyle blocks to farm entrances out at McNab, Knapdale and Pukerau, driveways around Gore all fight the same battle - Southland rain plus daily traffic equals potholes. The cheap fix disappears every winter. The proper fix does not.
How I sort it
The short version
- Cut out the failure
- The power rake cuts the hole and its soft edges right out, down to base - no loose gravel tipped into wet holes.
- Fix the drainage
- The repair goes back with proper fall, so water sheds off instead of sitting there starting the next hole.
- One visit, whole surface
- Corrugations and rough edges get sorted while the machine is there, so the driveway comes right in one go.

The local picture
Around Gore
A lot of Gore-area driveways run off crowned country roads, and the entrance cops the road's runoff every time it rains. That is why the hole at the gate keeps coming back. I reshape the entrance so the water passes instead of pooling, rebuild the failed patches and compact the lot. About 45 minutes from my base, and well worth bundling with any other machine work you have.
Getting to you
Gore is about 45 minutes from home, so I plan trips out east to make the whole day count once the machine is there.

Other work I do around Gore
One machine on site can knock off more than one job. If any of these need doing too, mention it when you call and I will price the lot together.
