"They did an awesome job. They showed up on time for the estimate and to complete the job. They followed up the following day to make sure everything was completed to satisfaction. I would absolutely use them again and would definitely recommend them to anyone. Professional and prepared to complete the job. My only concern is that the concrete was still sandy weeks after completion. Otherwise, it was 5 star work and their pricing was the best!"

"Kim at Nelson Masonry was incredibly responsive from the first time he came out to assess the situation (we had a leaky front porch that was "repaired" five years ago by what turned out to be an incompetent provider) through his laying out of the plans to the actual demolition and reconstruction of the front porch. He assured us his crew would take care of the problem and that we would be all set to weather (ha ha) the future. When they removed the top bricks and saw what had been put underneath, they reassessed. Ultimately, they put in a layer of concrete to create a positive slope away from the house, sealed it with liquid rubber, and then installed the bricks and mortar. Finished look was clean, and now the water should stay on top and run away from the house. Kim responded to email and texts with lightening speed. When I asked if they could look at another small crack in mortar on a different part of the house he had his guys match the grout and do a "tuck point" fix. In short, highly recommend this company. Their number one goal seemed to be to take care of us and leave us with a porch that would not cause us any more problems."

"I worked with Will. He was a pleasure to work with and was on time each day and did a great job with the work. He communicated every detail I wanted to know and then some. He had professional recommendations that were valuable and was a delight to work with. Highly recommend him for any concrete needs. Will definitely reach out if another project comes up for me or anyone I know."

"Dealing with Mark Rownd and the rest of his crew was great. Not a single problem or concern - something I've come to realize is a rarity with construction jobs today.
I had gotten multiple quotes from a lot of other companies, including many of the top rated Angie's List companies, and noted wide price swings, frequent no-shows for quote appointments, and some very substantial inaccuracies provided by them.
Concrete Work's prices weren't the lowest quote I got, but Mark was honest and up-front and I felt that I could trust him and the company. I wasn't wrong as I'm very pleased with the work that was done and hope to have Mark and Concrete Works back again for more planned projects.
To be completely candid - I never met Mark Rownd or had any dealings with Concrete Works before this project, so this is a true unbiased customer review, but I wouldn't consider using anybody else but them for all of my projects.
I wish all of the construction companies were like these guys - I'd have a lot less gray hair!

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Avondale Estates, GA

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.
