"E.S. Leonard Contracting was the only company of three that designed a drainage solution too correct the erosion and puddling problems on my property. Eric's solution was not a short term one that would only cause problems in other areas of the yard. Neat installation and the area was left clean. Excellent work at a fair price."

"Great. Gary Myers came out promptly and gave me a professional bid and showed me the samples to choose from. Scott and crew came out to do the work shortly thereafter and my walk looks great now. Very professional and reliable!"

"The Davey Tree Expert Company Today me and my husband thought we were going to cut down a tree. And my husband did a great job to start but the dang tree wouldn't fall. Being afraid that the tree would fall the wrong way we had to call out for help from some experts. We had one to come by and he decided that the tree was in a dangerous state and we were told that it would take a team and two days to get it all taken care of and also it would be 6 weeks before they could get it. Called one more Davey tree expert company. They sent a gentleman named Kyle and right away he ran to take a look at it and then ran to his car and pulled out a rope. He then proceeded to tie the rope to the tree and then another and created a pully system. And in 20 minutes with our help the tree was down. He was a wonderful person to just jump in an start working with it. Very knowledgable and professional and fixed our worries fast. We were afraid the tree would fall the wrong way and he fix it all."

"<p>Basile cut my lawn every week.  They were prompt, dependable and always did an excellent job with all trimmings cleaned up.  If for some reason I needed them to skip a week (new grass) it was easy to just send an email and the schedule was immediately adjusted with consistent communication about the change.  </p> <p>I also had them install metal edging on two garden beds. Installation was clean, secure and as planned.  (I laid out the string as a guide.)  I was disappointed that on this job, while the edging was installed properly, there was no attempt to clear the surface of grass within the edging.  For the $400, they did what I would consider the minimum necessary to complete it.....but I had to go back later and finish the surrounding area.</p> <p>I will use their service again next summer for the lawn.  Good response and customer service attitude from everyone in the company.  </p> . <br />"

"In one of those rare cases of perfect timing, a few days after I subscribed to Angie's List their Big Deal was 48" granite countertop replacement for $349.  I was in the process of getting bids from other contractors for a 48" granite wet bar top replacement, the first of which had just come in obscenely high, so it was a no-brainer to take advantage of this Big Deal. <br /> <br /> The first step was to set up an appointment to take measurements, a few days after which we went to look at the stone samples at Solid Surface Resources.  The one we liked most was a few inches too small so we went with our second choice.  I think the Big Deal offer was meant for a bathroom vanity but they were flexible in making it work for a bar install. Installation was quick and painless, though I had to remove the old bartop / sink (due to the deal terms) and, post-install, redo the plumbing because it interfered with the sink. <br /> <br /> End result - it's awesome!  Their work was first-rate and their communication and follow-through was appreciated."

"I hired Quality Waterproofing to extend a buried downspout/sump pump drain that was poorly placed by a competitor 4 years ago. The competitor placed the pop up drain 10 feet from the house in a low spot, which created a swamp. Quality did an A+ job fixing the problem. They were timely, professional and UNDER budget. Very honest and high quality work. They even did some extra sodding and dirt work at no charge."

"It was okay. I didn't see the people. They came, did their work and left. I wanted aerating and over-seeding. I don't know if they had gotten a big response for their advertised price but I felt they came out kind of late and they didn't leave much time for grass to grow in the fall. Actually, I was a little disappointed in how long for them to come out. It was actually later towards the end of October before they actually got here, maybe the second week of October. They were good. There wasn't any additional cost. The price was really good that's why I scheduled the service with them."

"Couldn’t have asked for a smoother transaction. Replaced two concrete basement walkout retaining walls with block walls. They removed the old walls and started and completed both new walls in an amazingly quick time. They made sure had proper drainage behind the walls so I wouldn’t have problems in the future. Doug was awesome to work and communicate with. I will use Ortman again for concrete or retaining walls. The walls look great. Highly recommended."

"Our interaction with Mark and his team can be summed up in one word:  Amazing!   <br /> From the moment that Mark arrived to give us a bid (he arrived exactly on time) to the last minute they packed up their truck on the last day, this was by far the most professional work ever performed at any of our homes.  When we requested a few minor additions to our original proposal, Mark coordinated and implemented our changes without skipping a beat.  Mark and his team arrived every day at the exact time promised.  We were impressed with Mark's vast amount of experience and creativity.  They were an absolute joy to work with and we will hire them for any land or hard-scaping needs, going forward.  Our neighbors are raving about the work we have performed.   <br /> Mark, Jim and John went out of their way to ensure we received exactly what we wanted for our front yard and back yard.  It was clearly obvious to us that this team enjoys what they do because they are so good at it.   The pride Mark takes in his work shows in the final product.  Mark and his team are non-smokers, as well as being clean, respectful, and paying attention to every small detail. This team of men like to have a good time, and we shared a lot of laughs, and made some great memories.   <br /> If you are looking for any type of hardscaping such as retaining walls, pavers,  or anything related to brick for your home, our family and friends strongly recommend Mark Walters Walls.  Thank You, Gentlemen!!!!! <br /> Debbie and Jeff Jackson <br /> St. Charles, Missouri   <br />"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in De Soto, MO

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.
