"Max and his crew did an amazing job! We had a gravel driveway for 18 years and finally decided to have it paved. Very professional and Max was easy to get along with and answered any questions I had. I would highly recommend Allied Asphalt!"

"I am very picky when it come to having work done at my home. Rodney and his crew were very good at what they do. My previous driveway was in very bad shape and the ground was saturated with water. Rodney dug out all of the wet stone, let the ground dry out and only then did he add fresh stone. After installing a drain in front of my garage door then he laid down the new asphalt. Rodney and his crew definitely take pride in their work, a trait that is hard to come by now a days. Hire them, I promise you wonâ t be disappointed."

"Right from the start everything went like "clockwork". Communications and scheduling were timely and accurate. Marsha kept us informed every step of the way. The estimate for the job was fair and reasonable and we signed on and scheduled the job. Showing up on time, communicating necessary information such as delivery of supplies and job scheduling are important. They followed through perfectly. The job was done in one day, the crew was professional, experienced and very clean. We are delighted with our new patio and we do not hesitate to recommend Exotic Pavers to anyone. So, do yourself a big favor, call them for an estimate...you'll be very glad you did!!"

"Ken worked with me on scheduling so that he could finish on a Saturday while I was there to let him in the house. He recommended stucco restoration vs. a complete teardown of the chimney which would have been much more costly, and he did a nice job installing a fireplace insert with liner and termination cap. He accepted the shipment of my very heavy insert and brought it with him on a Saturday.  Ken and his sons also traveled about 50 miles to get to my house. Overall a very good experience and very satisfied with the work. <br />"

"It's unbelievable the quality of work Eric and his team does. Eric recognized the urgency to have 3 trees taken down and one trimmed and came immediately to do the work. I had flower beds and perennial gardens right smack in the middle of all of this work and Eric and his team were so careful not to damage a thing! Not one plant or flower was touched. Honestly, these guys are miracle workers and the cleanup was absolute perfection. Five lousy stars are not enough for this team, they deserve 10!"

"This was the second time we used 3 D to level our drive and walk.  They did another portion several years ago.  In both instances the work was thorough, well-done, on-time, and fairly priced.  This past work was $1990, not included in the above cost of service for the second project. <br /> We then contracted 3 D to install stone siding on our porch, at an agreed price of $3450.  There were many problems, although they could not have been foreseen.  We agreed in August, made our first payment in Sept., and were told the job would be completed by Oct. 19.  It was finished on Dec. 19th.  However, there were circumstances.   One was the stone that arrived was nothing like the stone shown in the brochure or on the sample board.  It was partially installed when we first saw it and it had to come down and be exchanged with the supplier, which took some weeks.  Also, several workers and staff of the company had to deal with personal matters, including deaths in their families.  This is an understandable priority, much higher than any improvement job. <br /> Throughout the entire ordeal, all of the workers were professional, polite, understanding, and did their best to keep us informed on the rate of progress.  When it was finally finished, we met with the company rep to discuss pricing.  Without any argument and again in an understanding and friendly manner, he agreed to reduce the cost by $600, my requested price.  We parted on good terms and I plan to use this company again when we add stone to the base of our home in the future.  There could not have been more problems to overcome, yet the company was first class in dealing with us.  I recommend them to anyone needing either stone siding or leveling of their concrete drive or walk."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in La Porte, IN

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.
