"We've been very pleased with them and I would give them an 'A' overall. We've been using them since October of last year and they are a local company. They were last here 2 weeks ago and we spent $50 for them to mow our lawn and do some weeding. 9 or 10 months of the year they are here every week. They're reliable, competent, responsive and on time."

"5 star service! I cannot say enough about how awesome J &D Forestry Services LLC was to work with on our home project! Jeremy reached out to me right away, came the very next day and did the job at the price he quoted. Both Jeremy and Matt were professional and hard working. They did the job efficiently and left the site flawless. If you need trees removed, bushes removed or clearing out—I would contact J&D!"

"After and extremely wet and rainy first half of the summer, Andre got behind schedule by no fault of their own. 
They did finally show up about the first of September. The contract called for full tuck pointing of the house, chimneys, foundation and re-stacking a problem area above one window..  This is an extremely messy job to perform. That said, the crew cleaned up rather well considering the scope and mess of the job.  They were very polite and very nice. It took about 3.5 weeks to complete the entire job from the start of grinding mortar all the way through to the wash and water proofing. They crew foreman tuck pointed in a few "sample" colors so we could see and choose what mortar color looked best with our color brick.  
     Not only did they fully fulfill what the contract called for, but went above and beyond. They also tuck pointed the 2 retaining walls we have on the west side (side street, we live on a corner) of the house to make the walls appear "seamless" with the foundation.  They also re-stacked another problem area above a different window and "wet brushed" the the concrete slabs that line the rest of the wall in the backyard so it had a seamless color match.  They did not charge us extra for this. The owner explained to me "It's not about the money".
     We live in a circa 1880's Victorian historic home on a well known street in St. Louis.  Their quality of work can be seen by every car driving East. Old historic homes such as our require a special mortar blend because of the density of the bricks used back then.  The quikcrete stuff you buy at Home Depot or Lowes is simply too hard and will damage these old bricks.  Andre blended all the mortar used on site correctly, and also secured the proper permits needed for historic homes and neighborhoods. My only gripe is they did not call a day or two ahead of time to let me know their start date. But since they did such a great job, it's not really a big deal. If  masonry work is ever needed again, They will be the only company I'll call.

"He came to my house, but never actually delivered the design. He asked for 2-3 wks. I gave him about 4 wks. I tried to contact him to follow up, but I did not hear from him. I have received a refund from Angie's List. He told me they were doing (maybe paving?) when we first met, and he's trying to do landscape design? It was only $39. When I first contacted the rating was A, and it was B when I last looked. Maybe it's a case of trying to do too much, or needing to narrow the scope of work. You can know/do a little about everything, or something about a little....not both."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Festus, MO

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.
