"I got a response to my request rather quickly about a demolition project. Soon after they came by to see what it was in person and when they gave me a quote, my response was "That's it?!". Marty and Whitney came by and knocked out the job faster than I expected them to, all with smiles on their faces. The pricing was extremely fair and they did not slack at all. They were polite during the whole operation, and even cleaned up any left over mess. I will definitely go straight to Fletcher's Backhoe if I have any more projects in the future."

"He did an excellent job and was a hard worker. He even drove my car up my steep driveway and got it in the garage. I had slid backward and into the street. I will definitely call him the next time we experience bad ice and snow. Bill Gary (phone Removed)"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Chickasha, OK

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.
