"The project was started promptly, completed professionally without exclusions, questions or confusion. Thomas visited the site prior to giving a quote, even though my specifications were detailed and included a floor plan. He and his team arrived On-Time and prepared to work, and work they did. Installing 5/8" sheetrock requires strength, planning and care to achieve professional results, and these guys are pros! Every outlet and switch cut is point-on, every join smooth, every corner bead flawless and the ceiling and inner joins, perfect. 32 pieces of sheetrock installed to total professional perfection, ready to prime, in just 3 days. As a multi-home owner I will definitely be using Argostoli again and I am happy to offer my highest recommendation for their professional drywall work."

"Corporate Concrete Corp was wonderful compared to the last concrete contractor I hired. They were professional, and worked tirelessly in inclement weather. I was very impressed with Jose, owner operator, when he used his high tech laser level determining the exact height and slope to effectively prevent water buildup away from my house. Their entire team, Jasmine and Jessica kept lines of communication open at all times during this work. They cleaned up very well behind them. They also completed the job a day ahead of schedule! I highly recommend them and would hire them again!"

"It took several tries to get in touch with the company and arrange to have the work done. I'd actually given up at one point, but after seeing some of the work he'd done on the other houses in the neighborhood (2 places nearby were changed for the better by them) I thought I'd try again.
I have a very small yard, but they treated me like a big client.
Very helpful, fast and professional job. The place looks a million times better and even gets compliments from our neighbors!
Highly recommended.  Hopefully they get back to you right away. If not, it's worth trying again.

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Brooklyn, NY

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.
