"I hired local landscapers to do a lot of work that he (Javier Gonzà ¡lez) guaranteed he could doâ ¦ He broke up some concrete patio slabs and removed them, he put some landscaping concrete pieces down around my trees and bushes, and he planted some trees and bushes for me. He also helped me get my sprinkler system installed. He did not install it, he hired somebody to install it but he is who I paid for the job. He was supposed to put sod down for me and complete the landscaping job but he never did. He was also going to build a pergola for me, but he never did. He was not responsive to text messages and did not show up when he said he would show up. I have had to hire three other companies to repair the work that he did poorly or incorrectly, or that he left half done. Things as simple as the fabric that he put down before putting the mulch in the flowerbeds and tree beds were done poorly, the fabric was not secured to the ground, and the mulch was sparse. He said he would add more, but never did. The sprinkler system was installed poorly such that two of my Cypress trees have died and my Japanese maple may die as well. Portions of my yard were not getting watered so I had to water it by hand to keep my grass and plants from dying. I hired an irrigation company to make the best of a bad sprinkler installation. They put more appropriate sprinkler heads, and a drip line to address the areas of my yard that werenâ  t getting watered. It was either this, or completely redo this sprinkler system. If there is a next time, I will definitely hire an irrigation specialist to install my sprinkler system. Javier assured me that he had a guy who could do it and do it well. He was wrong. Javier is friendly enough, but does not keep his word and cannot be counted on to show up when he says he will show up, to complete a job that he committed to, Youâ  ve been warned!"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Huntsville, AL

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.
