"We recently had the pleasure of working with Alvin and Nathan on a complete overhaul of our irrigation system, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. From start to finish, they demonstrated outstanding professionalism, technical expertise, and a strong attention to detail. They took the time to assess our existing system thoroughly, explained their plan clearly, and were incredibly responsive to our questions throughout the process. The new system they installed is not only more efficient but also much easier to manage, saving us both time and water. Their work was neat, timely, and well-coordinated, and they made sure everything was working perfectly before wrapping up. It's rare to find a team that combines skill with such great customer service. We highly recommend Alvin and Nathan for anyone needing irrigation work—they truly went above and beyond."

"First of all, I called a number of highly rated/recommended masonry companies and Senon's was literally the only one who got back to me in a timely manner. I don't know what is up with the other companies, but I was not impressed with the other guys right off the bat. Second, not only did Senon's respond, but they took a look a picture of an issue with my limestone exterior that I was concerned with (a crack in between some bricks), advised me that it needed to be fixed quickly (regardless of who we went with) because it could cause allow water to seep in. And they were able to work me into their schedule right away. Finally, their work was amazing, the new mortar matched the existing mortar perfectly so you couldn't even tell we had work done! And they were so nice. They charge a minimum, and because I had written off the other guys as crummy businessmen, I really had no idea if the price was fair or comparable. But I don't even care. Because their work was fantastic and they were quick, it was worth it to me."

"Probably the worst experience I've had contracting a job out. Replaced a lot of fencing but did not make the gate wide enough as per our contract, so the mower would go through. Multiple, multiple unreturned emails and calls and a month later I finally had to go through BBB.He responded then and same BS as a response he gave here to another review, that he was out of town and was unreachable. Funny part, I emailed him from another email pretending to ask for a bid and got a prompt response during that time. He finally responded to BBB complaint but stated I never paid, even though the check was handed to him in person. I had to go pay my bank for a copy of the check as proof. Eventually he fixed the gate by cutting the supporting brackets in half and compromising the integrity. That took further pressing through the BBB to fix. He can do go work but you do not need the headache of dealing with such a person if issues come up. There are plenty other companies whose work is great and know how to stand right."

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