"Very professional. Arrived as promised and completed the landscaping as promised for agreed price. I hired him to update the landscaping across the front and around the side of my house which involved pulling some plants, cleaning some plants of unwanted growth, cleaning the plant beds and installing new plants. Finally, putting down new mulch. I could not be more pleased."

"We contracted with them for a 315x10 ft driveway and parking pad. The prices were excellent, very competitive and better than any other estimate we received. It is a family business and you get a very high level of customer service. They originally installed the driveway in January. Due to it being late in the season, there were minor issues. When I called to voice my concerns, the owner came to the house within an hour to follow-up and inspect the issues! When they returned to make the updates, they went above and beyond fixing the issue to provide us with a quality product. I haven't experienced such a high level of customer service and quality work in very long time and I would highly recommend their work."

"Couldn't ask for a better experience! We love, love, love the master bathroom that Jerry, Rykan and their crew installed for us! The workmanship was excellent, the service was friendly and knowledgeable, and the timing was perfect! As a real added plus, they were "forward-thinking" and planned into the design a manifold for future piping work we may want to do. Will definitely use again in the future. Can't say enough wonderful things about Jerry and Rykan Holder and their crew at Sawgrass."

"Reliability distinguishes the best contractors from the rest. This was never in doubt with Jay in spite of two unavoidable issues that arose prior to installation. Both were handled perfectly with excellent communication. I don’t know what is typical but the sod from Jay’s supplier seems very clean to me. A month after installation I’ve seen only 3 or 4 small weed sprouts from 6,000 sq. ft. of sod. Owing to outstanding site preparation there’s also been almost no breakthrough of preexisting weeds."

They have dump trailer drop-off but also have a crew that can help you out with labor if you need help loading or with demolition, etc,. They also do garage/house cleanouts and various other chores."

"We've lived in our house for 20 years, and the grass in our back yard was dead from dogs and rabbits. I found Just Sod on Yelp, and left a message for Justin on Wednesday afternoon at 3:00. He called me at 6:00 that evening, arrived by 6:30, and sent me an estimate by 9:00 the same night. The work was originally scheduled for Saturday (2 days later), but had to be rescheduled for the following Thursday due to snow. They came on Thursday promptly at 8:00, installed sod on two terraces, 4-5 tons of rock around our patio, a Breeze pathway, and a temporary fence to keep our dog off the sod. They were very organized, finished by 5:00, and cleaned up when they were done. They did everything we expected them to do, and everything looks great. I will also add here that my husband is a general contractor with high expectations. Jason and the Just Sod crew met his expectations, and we are both very happy with the quality of their work."

"Eric went over the details with me several times to include any changes that I wanted. Eric and Justin dug up and rearranged plants on the side of my house and removed plants and trees in the front with a beautiful collection of low lying shrubs and flowers. They also dug a ditch and laid pipe from the back of the yard to the front to drain at the end of the property. They worked tirelessly in the heat for over 3 days until the job was complete and looked perfect. I love what they did and would recommend this company to anyone!"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Bradenton, FL

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.
