"Henry and his team did an outstanding job on our landscaping project! I needed a complete overhaul of the front, side and backyard. I had no idea what to do or what plants to choose so Henry came up with ideas for each area. He worked with what I already have and improved upon it. He fixed all of the problem areas and installed proper irrigation. He and his team worked hard each and every day, always cleaning up before leaving. They are incredibly efficient and finished far sooner than expected given the amount of work that needed to be done. The cost was reasonable for the scope and quality of work. Natural Landscaping & Design earned five stars and I would hire them again in a heartbeat!"

"Frank was fantastic! We had a bluestone patio installed in our backyard under the pergola, but needed to have it extended. Our original contractor was unwilling to come back for the small project. We are so grateful we found Frank! Not only was he an exceptionally detailed contractor, but when he wasn’t happy with the look of one of the stone cuts, he replaced it. Much gratitude for his great work!"

"Rich Che and the CNS Empire Landscape crew did fabulous improvements on our family home in Wheat Ridge. They corrected drainage on three sides of an addition so water flows away from the house instead of into the crawlspace; replaced 30 feet of exit pipe from the perimeter drain around the foundation of the addition; installed new sod; and removed weeds from landscaped rock areas in the front yard. The improvements look great. Shortly afterwards, I engaged an inspector to check the foundation. The inspector said he visits about 400 houses each year, and this drainage remediation is among the best he’s seen."

"David is incredibly professional, reached out right away and did an estimate for us. Although we knew we needed to start with a retaining wall and re-grading of our backyard, we figured we would be doing our backyard over haul in phases (construction, rock install, irrigation system and sod, etc). That changed once we saw how meticulous, thoughtful and professional his work was, he earned all of our business and we ended up completing our whole job with him. He has helped work within our budget and timeline to transform our backyard from a dirt and rock hill to a yard for our son. He has a great team that works hard, right next to him. Always early to the site, perfect communication, clean and respectful of property. Not only will we use him for future projects but we have and will continue to refer him to friends and neighbors. We are beyond satisfied."

"Valentine and his crew at Brilliant Landscaping did an excellent job! From the initial call all the way up until today (2 months post job completion) he has been very responsive when I have contacted him. The backyard in a home we recently purchased had been neglected for well over a decade. Brilliant Landscaping did a superb job giving it a facelift. They listened to what we wanted completed, and offered suggestions how our ideas could be improved. However, Valentine was always willing to do as we asked even if it went against his suggestion. Honesty is clearly an important part of his company. Below is a list of all the work completed. Removal of old fence and installation of new cedar fence. Removal of retaining wall and surface rock. Removal of 7 trees. Poured a concrete patio. Removal and rebuild of retaining wall stones. Installation of a new 6 zone irrigation system. Adding of fill dirt and grading. Laying down new river rock. Laying down new sod. Brilliant Landscaping was referred to me by another landscape contractor who was booked out for the rest of the year. They had high praise for Valentine and his company. I too feel the same way."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Arvada, CO

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.
