"The coordination between the Driveway Lady and her partner/husband was not good. It felt like she was making promises and he was trying to cut corners. He tried to skimp on landscape fabric and on rolling (compacting) the stone until I insisted otherwise. I discovered after they left that his men had dumped about a ton of our old gravel base in the arborvitae bushes that line the far end of our long driveway. They also spread the stone unevenly, so that now, just a month later, weeds are coming up in some spots. While I personally like these people, I would not recommend them."

"Highly recommended. Very professional and friendly. They were accessible, responsive, and easy to work with. Expertly drawn plans of the project ahead of time (without charge). They were generally prompt in work completion and scheduling, and demonstrated a lot of flexibility in fielding impromptu requests. They also had great attention to detail with the work they completed. I'm looking forward to additional front yard projects in the future. The work they completed included the following: Cleaned/rockhound back yard, , removal of junk bushes and trees, with new re-grading of yard and grass seed Planted multiple trees and bushes Moved our side shed after it was installed by another company Back yard fence install Back patio with low wall install, stone walk way around house; refinished front walkway and steps to house Built landing to front and rear entrances Installed gutter drains"

"I was extremely impressed with the work Atila and his crew performed. He kept me informed on each step of the process and everyone was extremely nice and respectful. I love the color and pattern of the stamped concrete. They are extremely knowledgeable about concrete and meticulous in their work! I honestly can't say enough good things and look forward to using them again for our porch and walkway."

"We had a walk in shower problem from the day it was installed several years ago. The grout would not properly dry. However, this time the mud was done properly, the grouting and tile was sloped correctly and it now drains and dries within an hour or two. The job was done right and call backs were not an issue. <br />"

"I put this work off for a lot of years and one of the reasons was that I was afraid of getting lousy concrete work. After it was poured, these guys worked on the sidewalks and the apron for at least five hours. My neighbors can't believe how great the sidewalks look! DIO Construction understood exactly what I wanted for the driveway and the wall and all of that work turned out great too! DIO Construction is very professional. I highly recommend them."

"It was a pleasure to work with Barbara and her crew from start to finish.  Barbara visited my home within a reasonable time after I contacted her and provided me with a sketch of some of the ideas we discussed.  She was very helpful with plant suggestions, as I am not too knowledgeable on the subject.  We were in contact frequently before the installation and she was very good about responding to us in a reasonable time. <br /> The installation itself went really well and the landscaping looks better than we could have imagined.  The crew was very knowledgeable and worked very hard, managing their time well.  They really went above and beyond our expectations and were very professional. They even moved several large boulders - which had previous been used for seating around a fire pit - and placed them in the front of our home in the flower beds. The result is fantastic and it feels like a whole new house. <br /> The prices was also very reasonable for all that they did during the day they were here.  I highly recommend Garden Restoration and Maintaining! <br />"

"Provided estimate 10/2021. Later told they were booked thru end of year and could schedule for the spring 2022. Called this summer after no follow up to email requests to schedule the work and still told they are short on help and cannot schedule the work at this time. Almost 10 months and a job can't be scheduled. Seriously, stop advertising if you can't or won't do the job."

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