"Gilder and his friendly crew was very professional. The sod was installed in a timely manner. The grass has grown nicely over the last two years. I would hire Gilder and crew again for future landscaping projects. I would highly recommend Gilder and his company to anyone looking for reliable landscapers. Thanks, Gilder!"

"Needed small area of sod installed along the sides of the backyard. Found Marvin's Landscape Co. on Angi's and he was quick to respond. We set up a time and he came to give a reasonable estimate on the job. After a few other estimates from other landscapers, we went with Marvin and he was able to do the job within the week. He also gave good advice for treating the new sod and followed up with the job afterwards. Overall, very pleased with him and the work and would recommend to anyone needing landscape work"

"These people are the hardest working professionals I have ever contracted. They are not only professional in their work, they are courteous to your needs and requirements. My honest opinion and impression is that my money was well spent. In this economy, with the housing market crashing, I thought twice about spending any money to improve my home. Now I feel JUST DO IT. The difference in my home, the beauty and utility is worth it. We can enjoy our yard; entertain, and have an absolutely gorgeous investment. You can trust these guys. True professionals and true gentlemen."

"Excellent! I can't say enough good things about this project. We live in a 1920 Dutch Colonial, our walkway was falling apart. Miguel gave us samples to look at that would match our front Brick porch. The brickyard he sent us to allowed us to bring samples home to compare. He ordered what we wanted and within 4 days began the project. He came early in the morning and stayed well into the evening and completed the job in 2 days from demolition and removal of the old walk to the installation of the new one. He seeded the lawn that edged it. We selected him because he a patio and driveway and walkway for our nextdoor neighbors. We've lived here since 1974 and people trust the contractors we use. We highly recommend him and we always like to hire local owner operated businesses. For an additional fee he planted 2 trees in the front of the house. We are very satisfied."

"We contracted Jeff to install a paver patio around our new pool. He was always on time and very professional. We initially had only planned a patio and walkway but after consulting with Jeff he gave us a design with lights, a fire pit and bbq station. After the work was complete we couldn't be happier with it! We would definitely recommend him to any friends or family."

"

We had a couple of bumps in the road so I was not too happy with it for the kind of money I spent. There is still stuff that needs to be fixed and that was a project back in May, so put it that way. They came in and I spent about $12,000 on a patio. They were not prepared. What was supposed to be a two or three day job, it took them literally three weeks. I think he took on too many jobs and was stretched thin with his workers. It is established and is a family-run landscaping business that has been around for years. I know they are busy, but they were not prepared when ordering the products. He thought his local distributors had the products, but they did not so he did not even have it done by Memorial Day so I had to cancel my party. We had probably a half dozen setbacks.  A pallet was delivered that was the wrong materials, that's why the steps look weird. There were a lot of problems with his distributors. A number of times I saw things that did not look right to the untrained eye so I would tell him about it and he would talk to his crew. He seemed like he knew what he was doing, but he was not there enough. I had lights put on the patio. He replaced the timer put on there. We're talking about elementary timers and I can't figure it out. Three days later the timer does not work again. I have called numerous times for him to come back and finish the work, but he has not come back. He was very professional. They could have been a little more responsive. Once the project was done and the payments were made he could have come back and dealt with the issues. The lights added on about $2,000. I still don't have lights that don't work.

"The crew was good.  The quality of the work is good.  I would recommend them for any concrete work whether old or new or repairs from them.   They did a great job coming up with a good plan to repair my concrete deck around my pool.  Don't hesitate to use them.

"Dear Angi, Chris Clark, the owner of Clark Chimney & Masonry, came out to my home within a few days after our initial phone conversation... He provided me with an estimate later that day... He arrived with his Crew a day later which I found to be very impressive... I originally thought it would be several months before the project could even be started!!! The two Fellows working for him were extremely Professional, Kind, Respectful, and Courteous... Not only did they do my Pellet Stove Installation, they also moved around furniture for me to help clear up my living space... Chris and his Crew did an amazing job and I am so grateful... Now, my Family and I can enjoy the wonderful warmth of our pellet stove... Many Thankx to Clark Chimney & Masonry... You have truly earned our future business..."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Allentown, NJ

Most shed foundations benefit from a gravel layer four to six inches deep after proper compaction. The exact depth may vary depending on your specific soil conditions, climate, and shed weight. In areas with poor drainage or for heavier structures, contractors might recommend slightly deeper installations. Building the pad in multiple compacted layers rather than a single thick pour helps achieve optimal stability and load distribution.

Gravel pads cost significantly less than concrete foundations. While gravel materials run about $1.25 to $1.80 per square foot, concrete slabs average $6 per square foot. For a standard shed base, this price difference translates to substantial savings. Beyond the initial cost advantage, gravel pads also offer easier installation, simpler modifications if needed, and don't require specialized concrete finishing skills.

For a standard 10-by-12 shed pad, you'll need enough gravel to cover 120 square feet at the recommended depth. At rates of $1.25 to $1.80 per square foot, expect to spend $150 to $216 on gravel materials alone. Remember to factor in extending the pad beyond the shed's dimensions by one to two feet on each side for better drainage and stability, which increases the actual area needed.

The ideal gravel for shed foundations combines stability with proper drainage capabilities. Crusher run ($0.40 per square foot) makes an excellent base layer because it contains various particle sizes that lock together when compacted. For top layers, angular gravel provides better drainage while maintaining stability. Avoid perfectly round decorative stones as they don't compact effectively and may shift under weight, compromising your shed's stability over time.
