"Fantastic! Alan and team did an amazing job on my front and side yard - adding a beautiful stacked stone retaining wall around my flower bed, installing a lovely stone walkway on one side of my house and creating flower beds on both sides of my home. Alan was so professional. He communicated before, during and after the project; he was prompt, kind and a true delight to work with. I highly recommend him!"

"We were very impressed with the work the Kapusniks did, their professionalism and their punctuality. They are very conscientious workers, ensuring every aspect of their work was done correctly. They also saved us money by relocating the gravel from our main driveway to a second driveway behind our house. We would be confident to hire them again and would recommend them to others."

"Excellent!!. Excellent!! Can't recommend highly enough. From the picking of the granite (approval of slab), to template measuring of the kitchen, to the actual work performed - all A+++. The folks are incredible to work with, knowledge excellent, actual workmen the very best.. My installers called for ok to come a little early (YES!) and worked their behinds off. The workmanship (corners, seams, ALL of it) worth any critical eye to try and find fault - you won't. Premises left broom clean as promised. The entire staff at ASP was courteous, punctual, professional and a pleasure to do business with. The knowledge each employee in the different areas of the firm had about the details of any part of the"entire "process was extraordindary, and the installers skill-sets more than impressive. Kudos to the entire company!"

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

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.
