"Rocky Ridge did a fantastic job at clearing some land for us. He got back to us very promptly, met us at the site, and started to work all within about a week or so of us originally contacting him. He took a totally undeveloped area that was basically a forest on a hill and made a nice flat area for us to build on. His attention to detail was amazing. He used the stones he found in the area to build a retaining wall to help create the flat space and even left us an adorable stone bench. I would highly recommend Rocky Ridge for any landscaping, clearing, or excavating work you need done."

"Brian was responsive in scheduling a deck estimate and providing a written estimate within 10 days, letting me know ahead of time when to expect it. The estimate was very reasonable compared to other contractor estimates. The project involved removing timber from an existing upper deck, 12x14, replacing with composite decking and adding railings, replacing the 12 stairs and stringers, adding railings, and removing the timber and rebuilding the lower deck frame and adding composite decking lower 12x14 deck. Initially, he expected a later fall installation but was able to start immediately after Labor Day The weather was perfect and favorable without any weather related delays. His guys Josh and Hunter arrived at 7:30 and worked till about 3:30 daily, and cleaned up daily, and let us know what to expect as the project progressed. Initially, the estimate was about two weeks but these Josh and Hunter worked their magic in 6.5 days! All demolished materials were removed and the decks and stairs are gorgeous! I really appreciated their hard work and effort to finish the project quickly. The workers were friendly, courteous and professional. Brian offered design suggestions and communicated throughout the project (whether in person or by text) which was especially appreciated to coordinate the relocation of the hot tub with another contractor both on the front and back end of the project. We look forward to years ahead of enjoying low maintenance decks. I would definitely reach out to Brian for any future projects we might have. We were very pleased with his companyâ s work product."

"It went great. We were in good hands with the Ranieri family throughout the entire project. They are extremely reliable, diligent about keeping us informed about the process, and deeply knowledgeable about concrete deck installation and pool installation and care. Our 30+ year old 20x40 inground pool had crumbling old pavers around it and the pool plumbing needed replacing before we could put a deck in. The Ranieris were a one-stop-shop for this work. They replaced the plumbing, installed a new skimmer box, and poured a gorgeous curved edged 10' patio on one side and 4' deck around the rest of the pool. They are excellent communicators, keeping us informed all throughout the process and coordinated directly with our electrician to get the new ground wire installed and permitted before they poured. No hiccups at all with this process. This work happened this spring 2022, so there were supply and delivery issues with concrete that are outside of the contractor's control. From our perspective, the wait wasn't too bad, and the Ranieris kept us informed every step of the way. Their work is both art and science. We love what they built for us. We would hire the Ranieris for any future projects, and we highly recommend them."

"My experience with Real Dry was exceptional throughout the whole process. Last year, we were getting water in our basement whenever there was a heavy rain. Steve came and assessed the situation, and recommended digging wells around our basement windows and door and filling them with gravel for better drainage straight down (rather than toward the house/windows). We initially talked about also digging a well in the front of the house, where water would pool due to our lack of gutters and then come in through the foundation. So the initial estimate included all of that. When Steve arrived on the actual day with his crew, I told him that I didn't think we needed to have a well in the front of the house because I was planning on getting gutters and that should take care of that. He adjusted the estimate accordingly with absolutely no hassle. The work itself was done quickly and professionally and the basement has been bone dry ever since, despite some incredibly heavy rain. I HIGHLY recommend this company for basement waterproofing projects."

"Tony C. came over and took a number of measurements & photos, drew up a rough plan and went over our material and finish choices, which we had studied previously on-line and on Classic's website. The proposal/estimate cost $125 the day of the service (which we had agreed to in advance), and was well worth the expense. Had we gone ahead with the project, the fee would have been deducted from the project cost. Ultimately, we decided to hold off on this project for now - doing it with the material and finish we want turned out to be quite a bit more expensive than we had imagined. But we will certainly have Tony bid on the project when/if we do decide to go ahead. He was very professional in his dealing with us from the moment we first connected over the phone."

"He arrived at our home right on time, and we spoke with him about what we wanted done.  He then measured the driveway and figured the approximate cost.  Although this would be our first choice for driveway material, the cost would be far more than would be practical for us (we will probably not be here in 5 or 6 years).  We explained that to him, and he understood perfectly.  He said it wasn't a problem at all.  He was pleasant and professional, and we wouldn't hesitate to hire him if the occasion arose. <br />"

"Haven't received a bill yet. Septic had an odor; concerned about the leach field. Mt. Everett inspected the property. Determined that it was simply from the heavy rains and ground saturation. Did not try to sell me anything; impressed with that. Showed up when they said; was very responsive to phone calls; very professional. They do not do landscaping, despite the name (a hold-over from a prior time). <br />"

"Our work was done by Nick and his crew, and I can not say enough about the job these guys did!  They went above and beyond with their work and even did other things on their own that were not part of the job. <br /> <br /> As an example in our back yard we  have this outdoor build called a governors cottage which has our hot tub in it.  In digging up the back yard they pulled up the coax satellite cable that I forgot I burried there a few years ago. (There is a TV in the room with the Hottub)  this was entirely my fault as I forgot that I even put the wire in.  Well Nick was so good about it, that he went to Home Depot and purchased conduit and installed it so that I could rerun the cable when they were done with the patio. <br /> <br /> As far as the patio goes, its AMAZING!  And while Nick and his crew were working I made some changes (Added another wall) and Nick said no problem and got the extra material in the same day. <br /> <br /> I was amazed at the speed they worked at yet they kept their attention on the details and made the patio look even better then my wildest dreams. <br /> <br /> The front walkway also turned out amazing again the speed at what they worked and their attention to detail was top notch.  And along the way they kept asking us if we were happy. <br /> <br /> Each day they arrived promptly at 7am and worked hard up until 7pm.  They didn't good off or take a lot of breaks.   These were hard working guys and they took great pride in their work. <br /> <br /> I wish I could post before and after pictures here to Angies List to show what an AMAZING job they did! <br /> <br /> I would not hesitate to recommend J&D Landscaping to anyone."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Becket, 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.
