"We paid $1,100 for entire job on March 30. He did a good job on removing bushes, refreshing all the mulch, and trimming. This quote included installing plastic edging, which was poorly installed. It is already popping out of the ground. He didn't trim the tall palm or plant the 10 small Pentas & said he'd return. We had to nag him for weeks to finish the job. In the photo, you can see that the plants were placed on top of the soil in the mulch. A hole was not dug for each of the plants. I had to go back, dig a hole, and plant nearly every Penta that he "planted." They were starting to die, and I couldn't figure out why until I pushed the mulch back. Also, we agreed on a monthly fee to maintain the area and haven't seen him since."

"I told Scott what items needed to be hauled and we agreed on a price and time. He arrived when he said he would, loaded up, and was finished in no time. I didn't have to do a thing to do except write the check. He was friendly, professional, and I would use his company again."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Lakeland, FL

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.
