"Jason and team removed existing and broken aggregate concrete driveway and laid down asphalt. They came on time and finished when they said they would. They had serious construction equipment that didn't never touched my house or a sprinkler head right next to the driveway. Excellent job."

"I would strongly recommend AW Masonry to anyone with a large concrete job. Alan (proprietor) showed close attention to detail. Coordinated smoothly with gravel and concrete deliveries. He and his team produced an excellent surfaced foundation. Very happy."

"I was very satisfied with how well they graded my backyard. The first heavy rain came a few days later, and there was no standing water like before. Job well done. Also, they gave me a fair price doing the job for half of what others had quoted me."

"Tim and his crew always do a great job, they cut my yard whenever it needs to be done and it’s always done super quick and cleanly. They have the best rates and make sure that you are satisfied as a customer. He also put down plastic and mulch for my flower bed, and now it looks so much nicer. You won’t find a better quality and price for service ??."
Customer did not want  the gutter downspout flowing in their new bed. So we made it work
We can work around crazy angels too!
Had to dig out a root from a existing stump in the ground to level out the boarder. All hand dug and no machinery had to be used. Less machines is always more cost effective for our customers
We made the rock leaves even with their low profile deck.

"Mr. Worden called before he came out to confirm he was available to come out that day.  He called again to say he was nearby and would arrive soon.  When he arrived, he was very professional and courteous, answering my questions without hesitation.  He then measured the driveway and left.  Later that evening I received a quote via email for 3 different services (grading/gravel, tar & chip, and paving).  
Ultimately, we did not hire Mr. Worden because his price was not quite as competitive as another company.

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Hopewell, VA

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.
