"Ricardo and Outdoor Experts are amazing they did a full clean up of our yard with mulch, pruning, etc. they noticed one area that consistently washed away, and so they put in a small barrier that funnels the water to a new drain and pipe that moves the water under the mulch and to the driveway. It came out so good and we are really happy with the whole crew that worked on our project. I would highly recommend them to everyone!"

"I hired Evans Landwork to repair the drainage issues on my gravel driveway, and the results were outstanding. He quickly identified the underlying problems, explained the plan clearly, and got to work with real precision. The grading, reshaping, and drainage improvements were done with obvious skill — water now flows exactly where it should, and the driveway looks better than it has in years. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and pride in his work truly set him apart. If you need reliable, high‑quality driveway or drainage repair, I highly recommend Evans Landwork."

"Jonathan was prompt and efficient. He got the job done much quicker than expected especially that he was alone. He wasn't bothered by my nosy dogs which is a big plus. I highly recommend him and his services. When I need more work done I'll call him first."

"Junk King let us down and, at the last minute, refused to take 1/3 of our "junk" which was a big pile of bricks. I immediately called Dave Post and he agreed to take them off our hands at his earliest opportunity. He showed up on the day agreed, earlier than his normal advertised working hours, and moved the pile in a matter of minutes at a great price. Also my father in law will sometimes hire him for landscape maintenance (I think landscaping is his core business) so he comes "double recommended.""

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Greensboro, NC

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.
