"I wanted to wait a bit before reviewing to see how the material has held up and it's been fantastic. LT repaired our flood damaged driveway with TxDOT quality gravel base vs. just junk like some fly-by-night firms. We've had heavy rains in the two weeks since and the base has been almost as firm and dense as concrete! The best thing is the fact that Tim and his brother Ray both are excellent communicators- you are never left wondering about anything. They also discuss the project first and then have a professional final scope of work agreement that you don't sign or pay until then. That tells anyone that they have great relationships with their material providers. They were on time, even with challenging conditions. I AM bringing them back to do our concrete driveway once we get some other key work done."

"Wonderful. Henry and his crew were on time. Always answered my calls or returned very quickly. Gave me great ideas which turned out to be the best. He did all the plantings/irrigation and install. I would use him again. I now am thinking of a new project."

"David is incredibly professional, reached out right away and did an estimate for us. Although we knew we needed to start with a retaining wall and re-grading of our backyard, we figured we would be doing our backyard over haul in phases (construction, rock install, irrigation system and sod, etc). That changed once we saw how meticulous, thoughtful and professional his work was, he earned all of our business and we ended up completing our whole job with him. He has helped work within our budget and timeline to transform our backyard from a dirt and rock hill to a yard for our son. He has a great team that works hard, right next to him. Always early to the site, perfect communication, clean and respectful of property. Not only will we use him for future projects but we have and will continue to refer him to friends and neighbors. We are beyond satisfied."

"Overall, I am very pleased with the work Gabrielâ s folks did. The chain link fence they installed is of noticeably better quality than the fence they replaced. The wood fence was also well done, and the new doors they built are very nice. So, if I liked them so much why didnâ t I give then 5 stars? They didnâ t clean up the dirt removed from the post holes. If they had done that the job would have been perfect. I definitely recommend Gabriel and his folks."

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