"Perfectly. Carl met with me for a challenging problem/project I had previously hired (years ago) another contractor to solve/install. It involved installing a natural stone “stairway,“ with landings, on two small hills. The previous contractor did not succeed. Carl assessed and knew instantly what needed to be done, gave me a reasonable price, communicated effectively, always showed up on time with his crew and, at the risk of sounding hyperbolic, did a perfect job. Every member of his crew was customer and project focused. I already plan to welcome them back for another project elsewhere on my property."

"J. Scott Paving repaired a 5'x8' area of our driveway that was excavated for a chimney foundation repair and they also sealcoated the entire 150 foot driveway.  I found them based on online reviews.  Working with John Sr. and John Jr. was a great experience from start to finish!  We got a clear written quote at the time of their initial review and it was slightly lower than 2 other quotes from other contractors.  They prefer to be contacted via cell phone and either answer immediately or return the call the same day after leaving a message.  They were flexible on scheduling as we needed to delay the project a few times because of conflicts with other contractors who were still using the driveway.  The 3 team members who did the repair/seal took their time, addressed all our questions, offered advice and were kind and courteous - they did a great job addressing the details around a radon system fan and new fence posts.  After about a week and half, John Jr. called to see if we had any questions, ensured we were still satisfied with the work and offered suggestions for maintaining it going forward - to help ensure the sealcoating would last 3-5 years!  They are very knowledgeable and we have confidence that they will stand by their work.  We enjoyed working with this really nice team and highly recommend them!"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Bryn Mawr, PA

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.
