"Very professional, hardworking and detail oriented. Went above and beyond. Hired their services to clear out a large overrun wooded area with leaves, pine cones and needles, sticks and fallen tries, as well as trim several shrubs and mulch. Cleared everything out of the wooded area quick all while it was raining, making the job much harder. Cut a defined edge around all our flower beds and spread out 13.5 yards of mulch nice and thick, again in the rain. Turned out really well. Highly recommend their services, will use them again for future projects."

"I couldn’t be happier with the transformation of my courtyard! Once I requested a quote, the communication was prompt and an appointment was scheduled within just a few days. The team was knowledgeable, professional, and attentive throughout the entire process. They really listened to my vision for a low-maintenance design, suggesting the perfect combination of easy-care plants and zero-maintenance rock bedding. Jim was especially thorough in ensuring everything met our expectations. When I requested a more mature shrub than the one originally delivered, it was swapped out the very same day. They also checked in throughout the installation to confirm the project was on track with what I had envisioned. Start to finish, this company exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality landscaping services!"

"The results exceeded my expectations. The company was EXTREMELY responsive through all phases of the project (estimation, scheduling, work, followup). My job was supervised by a site manager who kept me informed at all times. During each progress review, the site manager ensured that I was satisfied with the work and he was willing to redo whatever I was unhappy with. Given that the weed removal services are based on an hourly rate per worker, the site manager alerted me whenever the team was on breaks or at lunch. Speaking of the team, its members were constantly, and I do me constantly, working. There was ZERO evidence of anyone, including the site manager ever slacking off at any time. I really feel that the team earned every penny of their rate. The same applied to the application of mulch. The entire team worked hard and without delay. Regarding the actual job, it consisted of the clearing of weeds and ivy from several large beds. The team removed all weeds, including the ivy by hand. The ivy was removed, as promised, by the root. Note that the ivy had been growing for more than 20 years and so was extensive. They also spread a 4-inch deep layer of mulch on all cleared beds. This required 72 cubic yards (1,944 square feet) of mulch. I am extremely pleased with the work performed by everyone at 4th Generation and highly recommend their services. If you want the job done right the first time, I strongly urge you to consider 4th Generation. I have attached pictures of the before and after views of one bed that 4th Generation rehabilitated. I have also attached a picture of one other area that was cleaned up by their team. It is representative of the entire job."

"We've worked with a lot of contractors. Outdoor Artisan is the best we've ever worked with. First off, we interviewed many companies for this project. We were amazed at how many didn't show, promised quotes and didn't deliver, had no ideas and asked us to come up with a plan, or were completely overpriced for unimaginative or cookie cutter ideas. We wanted something that was unique, well made, and beautiful. From the outset, it was a pleasure to talk to the owner's wife, Tracey, who was kind, courteous, and responsive. Clive, the owner, came out and listened to our ideas and asked us some critical questions about how we wanted to use our patio. He was extremely thoughtful and didn't rush through the design process. The design he created was absolutely what we wanted and it wasn't "over the top" - or too much for the size and style of our home. They communicated with us every step of the way, from when they were going to first arrive, all the way through final punch list items. The workers were polite and clean. When they finished for the day, everything was washed down, swept up and put away. When we wanted to upgrade some pavers during installation, Clive and his right hand man, Jason, were very helpful with the selection and made adjustments to their orders and schedules to get it done. When they started to lay stone and the color/design didn't work, they didn't just keep going and complete it in a way that we didn't like. They stopped and told us that they didn't like it, we agreed, and changed the color and design. We are so used to contractors that do not do what they say they will do. It was so refreshing to deal with someone who actually cares about their commitments and reputation. Everyone who has seen our patio has been blown away. It is a work of art and a joy to just sit and look at. It has been two years since installation and we have had no problems. Gorgeous in every way. We are now moving. The patio was a huge selling point and allowed us to get a lot more money for our home than other comps in our neighborhood. We have already contacted Clive to have Outdoor Artisan do our patio at our new home. Thank you Outdoor Artisan!"

"Our is 2.5 storey and steep roof. Owner visited and without getting on roof told me that you need to replace 2 flashings. The house is 9 years old and according to him ( I am not sure) it is better to replace flashing after 10-12 years any way. I think flashing should have same about 30 years life of roof. However, I accepted the recommendation as cost was $150. Also, I don't think they inspected or did anything on other side of the roof. He sent Brian in the following week to carry out work. Brian is really hardworking honest guy. He spent about 4 hours on roof to replace flashing and nail down singhles on one side of roof. I was not happy since they didn't even look at other side of roof. Since my $200 +79 was worth their effort of 4 hours I am OK with the service provided. However, I felt that they are giving this deal to generate more business. and chnging of flushing was not necessary. Anyway I was happy with Brian and hence I am giving A other wise I would have given B."

"Our home has a partially finished basement and is on a grade.  We experienced a major flood in July and were looking for options on how to protect our home from further flooding - as well as a way to improve the quality of the air, etc in our basement.  I contacted all the big local waterproofing companies for quotes.  The reason I did this was not only price, but the configuration of our home and the problems we were having were somewhat unique - so I wanted to make sure we considered all the options, and this is not a job you want to do twice.  Tim from AccuDry was the first person we met.  Tim is very knowledgeable and friendly.  He came over and within 30 minutes had put together a comprehensive plan.  Our basement and crawlspace were a mess, and frankly, I was having a hard time envisioning what it would look like after the waterproofing.  Tim assured me that it would be great.  We liked what he had to say, but of course we wanted to get other opinions.  We met with half a dozen other "waterproofing" experts, some smaller ones and some of the big names you see around town every day.  I was shocked.  Some of them were fairly knowledgeable, but some of them had no idea what they were talking about.  None of them put together a comprehensive solution like Tim.  And, price wise, AccuDry was very competitive.  We were so impressed with Tim's experience and confidence in his plan that we went forward with AccuDry as our waterproofing contractor.  Tim brought in his guys - a small crew that have been working together for years - and Tim was also on the job working with them and supervising regularly.  They installed a complete interior drain system, including a gravity fed outlet, so we did not have to rely on sump pumps or electricity any longer.  The guys were very friendly and accomodating.  If you have water issues in your basement or crawlspace, you know that this work is not easy, nor is it always very pleasant.  Tim's crew enjoy what they do and take pride in doing it right.  And, they are very talented.  When you take on a job like this, there are a lot of little things that need to be done in the process - removing parts of walls, digging trenches through gardens, re-pouring concrete walkways, etc.  Tim's crew took these tasks in stride and handled them with ease.  They put in the extra time and material needed to make sure the job was done right, and cleaned up to the point that you would not know they had been there.  And Tim stuck to his original price - even though I am sure he ran over on labor and material from the original quote.  I don't think any other contractor would have taken the time and care to install our system in this manner.  In fact, many of the other proposals were more like bandaids than solutions ... and no one else was willing to put in the work required for a gravity fed system.  AccuDry did a fantastic job.  When it rains, I feel confident that our home is going to remains dry and clean.  We can already feel a difference in the air quality / moisture in the basement.  I would recommend AccuDry to anyone with a water problem in their basement.

"We have lived in this house about a year.  (The house is 12 years old).   When we bought the house the inspection report noted that there were cracks in the masonry due to normal settlement.  The inspection report noted that these should be repaired to prevent water penetration.  Doug did a full inspection of the exterior of the house to locate all cracks in bricks and masonry.
It went very well.  All the work done was outside we had a couple of delays due to weather - Severe thunderstorms.
Doug and his crew arrived on time and had all the work done in short order.
The job site was cleaned up and my back porch was much cleaner after they left than it was before they started!

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Albemarle, NC

To calculate how much pea gravel you need for your project, multiply the length, width, and depth of the area you want to cover to find the volume in cubic feet. Then, divide that number by 27 to convert it to cubic yards to determine the amount of pea gravel you need.

A yard of pea gravel weighs about 1.3 tons or 2,600 pounds. Keep in mind that wet gravel weighs more than dry, and different types of gravel can vary in weight. For example, due to its density, river rock weighs significantly more than crushed stone and pea gravel.

The ideal depth for pea gravel depends on the type and size of your project. You'll need at least two to three inches for walkways and patios and a minimum of six inches for driveways to support heavy vehicles and prevent shifting over time. Aim for a depth of three to four inches in decorative garden beds or drainage areas.

Pea gravel is attractive, versatile, and low-maintenance. It provides excellent drainage, making it ideal for pathways, driveways, and garden beds. On the downside, its sharp texture isn't ideal for bare feet, and it can be challenging to weed or remove once installed. It can also shift underfoot without proper edging, creating an uneven surface.

Alternative landscaping materials you can use instead of pea gravel include wood chips, decomposed granite, crushed stone, pebbles, quartz, mulch, sand, and river rock. These materials offer different aesthetics, performance, and costs, so it’s important to do your research to determine which one best fits your landscape design and budget.

Many homeowners choose pea gravel because it requires minimal upkeep compared to other landscaping materials. You'll need to rake it occasionally to redistribute the stones and maintain an even surface. Pros also recommend installing weed barrier fabric beneath the gravel to prevent unwanted growth, although some weeds may still appear over time.
