"Dealing with Planet Granite was great up until the removal of my existing countertops and installation of the new granite countertop. The crew had two installs that day and rushed through my job. Paid over $1000 for removal of old countertops which was accomplished in about and hour with extensive damage to the drywall behind and above the backsplash. The new granite countertops look good. However, I had to spend two days cleaning up the mess, patching and painting drywall, cleaning caulking off the cabinets, staining scratches on the wood floor, cleaning a stain off the newly installed sink, and sawdust everywhere. Hire someone else to remove your existing countertops, these guys (or at least the ones that did my install) don't want to deal with it."

"It went Awesome!! Wesley drew up a plan of what he could do in my front yard including plants and flowers and rock and mulch. The price he quoted also included changing my sprinkler system into a drip system to help maintain the health of all of the new plants. Everything turned out beautiful. I have gotten so many compliments from family and neighbors!! I recommended him to my parents that needed some things done in their yard and they have also been extremely pleased with everything. I would highly recommend Wesley to anyone looking to refresh or replace and landscaping they might need."

"I can’t say enough good things about ABC Landscaping. After I first contacted Michael Couture for an estimate he was here within a day or so. I was also impressed at how quickly Michael and Barbara responded to my questions, whether by email or phone. Michael and his crew showed up right on schedule. I also appreciate that Dean Couture, the owner, also showed up on that morning; although he wasn’t working this job it showed that he had an interest in all his clients. The crew was awesome; very professional and friendly. They are some of the hardest workers I’ve encountered. Although I had certain plants in mind, when meeting Michael at the nursery he recommended a few items that might work better, and I’m sure glad I followed his recommendation. After the job was completed, there were a couple of issues with a few of the drip lines and Michael was back the very next day to fix them. And although we have a plant that is struggling (no fault of ABC), I have no doubt that Michael will replace it once I give the word! If you are looking for a landscaping company with integrity, reliability and professionalism, then you can’t go wrong with ABC Landscaping. I will definitely be using them for any future projects!"

"Jim gave me an estimate on installing sod. He was one of three bids I got. His was a bit higher than the others, but I really liked him, and felt that he would have done a good job had we used his services. We ended up using a local sod farm to install the sod, as we were selling our house and needed it done in a quicker time frame than any of the landscapers could do it. Jim and his administrative staff were friendly, courteous and quick to respond to calls and emails. <br />"

"Elysa created a design that met all my specifications and was more creative than had envisioned. The design process was accomplish in a few weeks with multiple meetings. The installation was scheduled to start soon after the design was finished, and was completed quickly. There were a few minor issues with the installation, which were corrected quickly to my satisfaction. Overall Timberline did a great job and was a pleasure to work with."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Canon City, CO

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.
