"Yes, he was kind, courteous, and professional. Excellent job and a decent price. The hedges/bushes were a mess and so over grown. He made some sense out of them and made them look decent again. I want to get them totally out and hopefully Quality Garden Services will assist again at a later date."

"I am an elementary school teacher. Every year I do an art project that requires river rocks. For the past few years I have been getting my rocks from Pioneer Sand. Today, I went to purchase the rocks. The very nice gentlemen said, "Do not worry about it. We would love to donate!" So kind. You made my day Pioneer Sand. I will be sure to pay if forward."

"<p>Scott is exceptional, we used him several years ago at another home to install tile in family room, three baths and a laundry room as well as demo and install new toilets, cabinets, a bath tub, some plumbing, etc.  As other reviewers have said, he is a perfectionist and all of his work is of the highest quality, well thought out, installed and finished.  We cannot say enough positive things about Scott, his honesty, professionalism and high-quality, long lasting work!  We have two or three other projects to do and plan to use Scott again for this work.</p> <p><br></p>"

"From start to finish it was a great experience! I love supporting local and family-owned businesses when I can and working with Joey and Cathi was great! The tuck-pointing looks amazing. Joey took the time to custom match the existing mortar as close to perfect as you could get, he takes great pride in his work and the quality was impressive! Cathi kept open and reliable lines of communication with me throughout the entire project. My neighbors were all impressed with the quality of work! I would highly recommend!"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Idledale, CO

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.
