"I located Marblecare of San Diego while searching Angles List. I decided to consider them because of their high rating and positive reviews. We wanted to get an estimate on cleaning and sealing granite counter tops and walls in our kitchen. Joe the owner, returned my call within a few hours, came over to our home the next day to provide an estimate and performed the work two days later.to deal with individual. He was very meticulous and explained exactly what he was going to do before starting the work. He finished the work in a few hours and did an excellent job of cleaning up after the work was completed. Time will tell how his work stands up over time. However, I am sure if any problems develop, or a touch up is needed, he will come back to resolve the issue. Based on my experience with Marblecare this week I would consider using them again."

"1. On-time: Each morning, between 06:50-07:00 am, here they were, all of them. Whether it was six, four, or three guys needed that day - no kidding – just like clockwork the sound of truck doors closing all at once. 2. Attitude: Our family felt comfortable every single minute Marco's gentlemen worked here. Courteous, hard-working, wonderful people. 3. Experience: I think that our front yard looks like a picture in a magazine. Marco was meticulous every single step of the way. I will add pics after my garden arch gets delivered and installed at the beginning of the winding path. 4. Hard work/no loud talk/no loud music: Just work from 7 am-3 pm + good daily clean up so we would not trip on their tools and things. 5. Integrity: It is a great pleasure to recommend Marco for so many reasons. Since he tells the truth you get a glimpse into his soul when he speaks. A very good man! 6. Flexibility: I had to ask Marco for some flexibility in $ (after we got going) and he worked with me - it all turned out great but it gave me an insight into his true colors. 7. Listening skills: Hands down Marco is the man on this too. Some people pretend to listen then do what they darn well please. Not Marco. I was impressed with his ability to not only hear but actually to LISTEN and changed things mid-stream as desired. For example, I wanted a bit of lawn added at the last minute and also wanted that same lawn to project out a bit further than the original point and ... it was zero problem ... even after his men were all packed up on a Friday. 8. Conscientious focus on clean up. The property was a muddy mess after 3 weeks so the last few hours on the last day were devoted to a thorough clean up. Marco’s workers pushed stiff push brooms while Marco followed close behind with a strong pressure washer attachment (on the hose) scrubbing pavers, sidewalks, and gutters around the property. In my opinion, owner/bosses that jump in and roll up their sleeves working side-by-side with their workers - are the best people and true leaders in our communities. Marco gets an A+ here too. 9. I received a follow-up call after a couple of weeks after the project had ended. I was stunned to see Marco's call on my iPhone to check in with us to ensure everything was okay and to see if I had questions or needed him to stop by for any reason. He’s a true pro in my book. Old school quality control. Most excellent. I can’t say enough about Marco’s attention to detail where my design (provided by Kate Wiseman of Sage Outdoor Designs) was meticulously followed and where he even had a few of his own suggestions. For example, in my backyard, along the fence, I had only soil. He suggested we put gravel. It looks great until we are able to replace our back-yard fence and then we'll maybe add a hedge (which our landscape designer suggested). Also, Marco brought to my attention the fact that 7 of the plants - drawn into the design - were not available and asked if I wanted replacements for the unavailable plants or a credit. Without his noticing, I never would have known we had been shorted plants. People walk by our yard all day long and compliment us over and over. Such an improvement! Some of our neighbors just stand on the sidewalk and look at it and when we're out there give a thumbs up. I cannot recommend Marco Huizar of Huizar's Landscape highly enough. By the way, his bid was over $40,000 less than the other bid we got from another company. It's unbelievable. Look no further! (The plants and trees - for front and back yard - ordered from Village Nurseries - a wholesale nursery - came to about $3,100 which was separate from Mr. Huizar's fee of around $14k)."

"We spoke to a few contractors and were not happy with their communication or ideas but when we got a hold of Modern Home Remodeling , they were so pleasant and reassured us that our home addition will look great and be ready for our family to come visit. Indeed, it did! They were efficient, affordable, and collaborative. I recommend working with them!"

"After a free design for the back yard, I selected Apollo for their reasonable price compared to another company. They did the job very quickly in spite of rain delays. They had different crews for different jobs. One crew took out the turf, front and back yards and filled in the base. Another crew installed the pavers in the back yard after adding sand and compacting the area, A third crew installed the artificial grass. Another person was assigned to finish cleaning up the area. it looks great."

"I bought an Angie's list deal for dry wall repair but really they just spread some spackle on it and left it rough. I had to scrape off the blobs of spackle left on the ceiling. My boyfriend could have done the same job. I wanted them to actually replace the dry wall where it was cracking. Mainly they wanted to sell me more jobs and pushed me to sign on with them to get new insulation in the attic. I had them give me an estimate on rain gutters while they were here. Their estimate/prices are very high. I think they have to pay for all those people manning the phones. It sounds like a boiler room when they call."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Chula Vista, CA

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.
