"First and foremost Eduardo Landscape Services are honest and hard working. This job was perfect. It was a big job which included excavating the front yard, installing a new parking area, rebuilding an old paved driveway, building a large natural stone retaining wall, all new underground drainage, removing ledge and a new 14 X 30 patio. Eduardos crew was so impressive I took videos of them working. Ive been affiliated with different construction companies my entire life and this company rates with the best of them."

"Roberto and his team were great. We hired them to install Sod on our property. We got a fair proposal quickly and they were able to complete the work in record time. The work is great and the neighbors said we must have hired great landscapers because it looks awesome."

"Estimate was made by the son and the day they came the owner changed the project. He did take some money off the bill but not enough in my opinion. They used my hose and ripped it off the side of the house which I didnt notice until the next day . They also left some trash which I specifically asked the owner to remove. After four phone calls they have not called me back!"

"J. came and gave me a fair estimate. He did come back when there was no rain in the forecast and did a nice job filling in my cracks and sealcoating my driveway. I would recommend them. Other vendors I called did not even call me back or show up for an estimate."

"Bill and his crew had been digging up the road a few feet from my front door for a couple of weeks in order to replace my neighbor's septic system with city sewerage. Knowing of Malden's lead-copper regulations, he offered to replace my lead water line while he was working in this area. In spite of the incorrect piping plans supplied by the city's Engineering Department, Bill was able to locate the shut-off for my service (which was buried under several layers of asphalt), do the excavation, and replace my lead pipe with copper. I hired him without getting a second estimate because I was impressed by the work he was doing for my neighbor, because a different neighbor told me his price sounded reasonable, and because the staff at the Engineering Department said that he was a "good guy" and in fact did some work for the city. I gave him a "B" rating on Price because he never mentioned/offered his 10% Senior Discount to this 75-year old lady."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Arlington, MA

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.
