"I called and Jessie, the owner, came out promptly and gave me an estimate, which I think was $250 for all the work I asked for. As usual, their price was great. I had them remove two big pear trees <br /> and another fairly large trees, two really large bushes and a variety of <br /> scrub bushes and volunteer trees around my fences, and they charged <br /> $250 to take them all down and haul them away. My experience is that the quote they give you is always what they end up charging--they don't change the price after doing the job. In the past I have had <br /> them use their end loader to haul a big shed from one part of my yard to <br /> another and put it down on a concrete slab, which they did with great <br /> precision. Their price cannot be beat, and they have the heavy equipment <br /> to do it fast and well. The owner is the person you work with--he has <br /> come to each job, even when he has to bring along more guys. He is very <br /> polite and really seems to care about doing the job right so you are <br /> satisfied. That and the great prices is what make me think of this <br /> company first for any lawn and yard related work that I cannot do <br /> myself. If you are a female customer, have no fear, this company will treat you with respect and will not rip you off."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Geuda-springs, KS

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.
