"Great job and once again, fast turnaround. After that big storm a couple weeks back I had a couple limbs fall. However, the pile at the corner of my yard was dumped by an unknown person. Well I was out of town and had no clue till the city called me to inform me my neighbor was upset. Well I called Dennis up, at home, at dinner time and after his work day. After explaining the situation he stopped everything went over to the house (at night) and removed all debris. Big Thank you to for keeping the peace with my neighbors."

"Very professional. I highly recommend. Our driveway had serious issues of washing out from storm runoff. Absolute One Properties graded the area of erosion, installed a new drainage pipe and dressed the area with rip rap. Top notch work!"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Johnson City, TN

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.
