"Very responsive and helpful. I hired them to grate and spread gravel on my existing (and old) gravel driveway. They were very friendly, showed up on time, explained what they would be doing and worked efficiently. Once they work was complete they made sure to check over the project with me and answer any questions I had."

"They came on time for the estimate, came back two days later and finished when they said they would. My walk looks like it is new. The color of the grout was matched perfectly. They cleaned up each day and kept me informed. No one could have done a better job. I will absolutely use them again and you can’t go wrong hiring them."

"This is the second project we hired JP Landscaping for, and I suggest that anyone else looking for landscaping or hardscaping work do the same. We obtained numerous quotes for both projects, and JP was always the most transparent, honest, and cheapest. We could not be happier with everything his team did for us--a retaining wall, patio, and fence. He totally transformed our back yard. He was patient as we worked through what exactly we wanted and our budget. Once we made a decision and he had the materials, his team showed up right away and worked hard. I highly recommend JP Landscaping for anyone's next project."

"Cody uses higher quality products than others, so his prices are slightly higher as a result, but really not by much at all. When you consider long term wear and lifetime of the asphalt it will end up saving you money over your lifetime of owning your home, so the 3% upfront is very well worth it. He is a skilled tradesman and does great work, he was efficient and through. I would gladly hire hm again for future resealing or if we were to move."

"This work took place eleven months ago, but that gives us the ability to say that everything Kurt’s team planted looks great and is growing nicely, except one bush that is struggling, which Kurt agreed to replace without hesitation. We have been in our house for 22 years, and finally got around to replacing the crummy landscaping and walkway the developer put in. Distinct Landscapes installed a paver walkway, and a complete set of bushes, flowers and a crape myrtle tree. The work was done very well and within budget, and the crew distinguished itself by how well they cleaned up the site. The spacing between plantings to allow for future growth seems perfect. Most of all we like Kurt. He is low-key and friendly, offers solid, knowledgeable opinions when asked, and never applies any sort of sales pressure. We would use Distinct Landscapes again, and recommend them without hesitation."

"This is the second project we’ve done with Tillerman Gardens and again, they’ve exceeded my expectations. I had my flagstone patio extended and a walkway added to my back entryway. Jesse had some creative ideas to incorporate the walkway - he came up with a gorgeous design that I would never have envisioned or had the insight to drum up myself. The execution was seamless - his team was prompt and efficient everyday, and the end result is absolutely beautiful. Now I want more things done. This type of quality work completely transformed my space. Worth every penny."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Gainesville, VA

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.
