A 100-foot driveway cost depends on width, depth, base prep, and material; a simple 100 ft x 12 ft gravel driveway with a 4-inch top layer typically needs about 15 cubic yards of gravel. Material and delivery for that amount often run $800 to $1,700, while full installation including grading, compacting, edging, and labor commonly ranges from $2,000 to $6,000 in the California Region. For an accurate job quote, schedule a site assessment or ask us for contractor referrals.
