"It took a while to get it done.  They built a patio. They had to come back and redo it. They came back and redid it, but they did about 80% of it. There are still pending things, but they never got back to me. The real thing about them was that it was run by Blake, and he is the company, he is the guy that come out and estimates the work, supervises the work, and he has other work. The price was good."

Very proud of the work done as well my front yard looks beautiful now. Great placement of the plants in the flower bed and stone placement. Everything looks exactly as we planned it. They are very friendly and work as a great team. I will definitely hire them again."

"These guys were great! We just moved to town and my husband hasn't bought a mower yet so we needed lawn care ASAP with all this rain! I called a few places and they all complained about coming to Holston Hills and they mostly do west side, one even told me I'd pay more just to get them to drive here, no thanks! So I was driving through my neighborhood, saw this truck and these guys mowing our neighbor's lawn so I asked them if they'd give me a quick quote. They offered me a very fair price and did it on the spot. They were very thorough and detailed and spent a great deal of time going over their work. I was impressed, we may delay getting a mower and use these guys again!"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Gatlinburg, TN

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.
