"I hired Absolute Asphalt Maintenance A after viewing their work at my local corner store. I was amazed at how quickly they transformed the driveway in less than a day. (It was pretty bad) I left my number with the store owner and the next day Matthew called me. We schedule a time to meet and from the point out my experience with this company has been far above normal and has met every expectation I had. Their performance and professionalism has been nothing less than awesome! They gave me a great price and worked within my budget to complete the work needed to bring back my asphalt driveway which had been severely neglected. They were very diligent and quick with their service and I am completely happy and will recommend this company to anyone I hear needing this type of service. We developed a great relationship. On a personal note! I was stranded... Literally! I needed a tow and only knew one person with a truck big enough to tow me home. The Alternator went bad in my car. I call Matthew and asked for his help. Again I received compassion from him that people just don't have today. He went out of his way to pick up the part I needed for my car. Brought it to me. Then installed it in 106-degree temps. If it hadn't been for him I would still be sitting at O'Reilly's Auto Parts in a dead car. There are not words enough to describe the workmanship or integrity of the people at Absolute Asphalt Maintenance. It's refreshing to know there are still people left out there with compassion and pride. This company and its staff are one of them. Their work is top quality and goes above and beyond any expectations you may have of them. These guys are a breath of fresh air in a world that has gone crazy."

"The process went mostly smoothly. The initial estimate was done, but after having several estimates, it became clear there was a math error from TPC, but Ramone came out quickly to fix it. We picked our granite, and Ramone was very understanding when I had to repeatedly reschedule due to an injury I had sustained when building and installing the cabinetry (nothing too serious). The team had to review our kitchen again to ensure everything would fit as expected, as they were not sure if they were going to be able to have the grain flow in the same direction throughout the kitchen. Unfortunately, that led to TPC rescheduling with us, which they communicated poorly. However, they did a great job when they came out, and were very professional and courteous."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Alvarado, TX

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.
