Communication was excellent, he came on time, and took everything that we agreed and more. Perfect service overall."

"We hired R. DeGroodt II to widen and resurface our driveway. Al was very communicative from the estimate date thru the install day. The crew showed up on time. After ironing out a few details with Ronnie and Al, the crew got right to work. The job was complete in a timely manner. We are very happy with outcome."

"I had an excellent experience working with Noah and his team on a deck build along with a series of door install / remodeling jobs. Noah was responsive and respectful throughout the whole process and helped provide me with a number of different options to come up with the best solution to fit our needs. His team was professional on the job and performed top++ quality work throughout. I plan on working with Noah and his team more over the coming years on additional remodeling projects for our home and couldn't recommend them highly enough for any and all custom build projects."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Highland, NY

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.
