"They did a great job. They Scraped and removed the grass and leveled out the driveway with the tractor and refreshed the old gravel and deliver 2 loads of gravel and spread it out evenly in our parking area and down the driveway. It was a pleasure working with the owner and the guys that came out."

He is courteous and takes time to explain how he is going to make the repair. I recommend him to anyone and plan to call him again for future repairs and new projects."

"Jake and his crew were friendly and professional throughout the project. They installed a new sprinkler system controller, inspected and repaired the actuator system, adjusted sprinkler heads and replace several bad sprinkler heads. They quickly got to the root cause of the problem, provided and estimate, and the final bill was close and quite reasonable. They took great pride in their work. During, and after the project was completed, they answered all of our questions and have continued with prompt follow up service. I am looking to use them again for some other projects very soon."

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.
