"Ashtyn Hauling did an OUTSTANDING job!! They are talented professionals who are not only very talented and fast, they are also very neat. Even after downing 17 trees, my yard was as clean when they left as it was when they arrived. I have additional projects at my home and will use Ashtyn Hauling for as many of them as possible. Thank you for a GREAT experience. Looking forward to working with you again soon!"

"My porch was fixed within an afternoon’s time. I was also able to get some siding fixed from wind damage that I hadn’t been able to do myself. These guys were proficient and fair priced. I highly recommend to anyone. I originally went with this contractor from looking at google reviews. I noticed a lot of people I recognized around town were also recommending them. As for me they did not disappoint and I will continue to use their services in the future. Thank you Total Home & Tech!"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Hamilton, IN

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.
