"Had Texas Prime Homes install 16 panel LG AC panels with Enphase micro-inverters. Very happy with the whole process. I was introduced to YES by a friend who had similar installation done just few weeks before with Juan. Juan is very knowledgeable, provided various technical details and covered the whole production to consumption technical details in-depth. As I understood the whole concept, we decided to go with Texas Prime Homes right away. Install completed in 5 weeks, followed by city inspection and PGE approval. Received project updates at each milestone from the project coordinator, very happy with install crew work. Texas Prime Homes promised to get the install completed before tax year end, and they kept the promise."

"Jared was our technician and did an outstanding job. Our salt water pool had been breaking down the flagstone to a fine sand that would settle to the sun shelf and pool steps. With brushing it would ultimately end up in the pool D.E. Filter which required it to be cleaned more frequently. Since we had Texas Stone Sealers apply their proprietary sealant, the fine sand no longer shows up and the flagstone looks far more attractive than it did before. We went for the darker, richer look (but not the wet look) and have been very pleased. It has been three years since our initial application and the salt water pool protection is still working great. We opted to take advantage of their “once in the first five years” warranty reapplication for a nominal fee to restore the rich, darker look we had originally. Jared has also been our technician for the reapplication. He has been very thorough and when we had a small area that needed a fix he was responsive in fitting us into his busy schedule and our large deck once again looks awesome! One comment for those with flagstone or other natural rock issues with a salt water pool. Much of the material I read suggested that unless the rock was sealed at the start, the problem with fine disintegration of the flagstone into a sand would be very difficult to stop. I can’t speak for all materials, but the Texas Stone Sealers product did successfully stop the problems we had been having even though it was not applied until almost ten years after the pool and deck were installed."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Edinburg, TX

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.
