"ZR Landscaping was phenomenal. I could not have worked with a more professional company. Always on time and worked efficiently to complete the job. We had a flagstone walkway installed, sod, grass mat, landscaping for the entire front and back yard and to top it off, the most beautiful river rock ditch. Andy and or Zack was on hand every day for supervision and any changes were verified with us immediately. They were also great with recommendations and very trustworthy."

Customers say: Quality work

"This review is long overdue. Chad put in an amazing road for me with several culverts to direct waterflow downhill. It is amazing work that he has seen to with regular maintenance. He checks in whenever he's in the area. His quote was under any other, and when he ran into labor issues, he held true to it without passing on any of his cost. He is a true professional and an excellent worker. I would hire him again for anything and wholly recommend his work."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Fairview, NC

Most shed foundations benefit from a gravel layer four to six inches deep after proper compaction. The exact depth may vary depending on your specific soil conditions, climate, and shed weight. In areas with poor drainage or for heavier structures, contractors might recommend slightly deeper installations. Building the pad in multiple compacted layers rather than a single thick pour helps achieve optimal stability and load distribution.

Gravel pads cost significantly less than concrete foundations. While gravel materials run about $1.25 to $1.80 per square foot, concrete slabs average $6 per square foot. For a standard shed base, this price difference translates to substantial savings. Beyond the initial cost advantage, gravel pads also offer easier installation, simpler modifications if needed, and don't require specialized concrete finishing skills.

For a standard 10-by-12 shed pad, you'll need enough gravel to cover 120 square feet at the recommended depth. At rates of $1.25 to $1.80 per square foot, expect to spend $150 to $216 on gravel materials alone. Remember to factor in extending the pad beyond the shed's dimensions by one to two feet on each side for better drainage and stability, which increases the actual area needed.

The ideal gravel for shed foundations combines stability with proper drainage capabilities. Crusher run ($0.40 per square foot) makes an excellent base layer because it contains various particle sizes that lock together when compacted. For top layers, angular gravel provides better drainage while maintaining stability. Avoid perfectly round decorative stones as they don't compact effectively and may shift under weight, compromising your shed's stability over time.
