"The sales person was very helpful and listened to my concerns and issues. He provided me with the documents needed for my home owners association application which saved me a lot of time, and he responded quickly when they asked questions. The construction team was exceptional. They kept me advised and every step and answered every question I had to my satisfaction. When an issue came up we were able to make the decisions timely to keep the project on track. The workers cleaned up every night, and worked under extreme heat as the project had a south exposure. The follow-up for letting me know how to care for my pavers was great. Everyone was very professional. Thank you for a great job."

"The cutout for the new Range needed to be 3/4” larger than the old Range. The Guys put down blankets on the floor and over the cabinets to minimize the duty as the granite was being cut. The cutout was perfect when they finished and the cleanup was great."

"I am sad to say the quality of work performed by this company has diminished greatly. We had Daniel's company install a wall & flagstone patio for us almost 20 years ago. The wall is still in great shape and the patio does show signs of weathering but otherwise still in good shape. However, in 2021 we asked Daniel back to install another flagstone wall and patio. We had a few issues with the install design not being the agreed-upon design but in the end, they did an acceptable job even though we felt they rushed the job. In less than a year the wall is severally cracked and the patio has several major cracks. He also installed 2 steps in which one step is now loose. We have pictures to back up our claims. We called Daniel 2 times and emailed several times. His office had scheduled an appointment for him to come out and look at the issues. He never showed. They are no longer returning our calls or emails. I can not recommend a company that does not stand behind its work."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Deer Trail, 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.
