"I hired Earthworks last summer to dig out part of my hillside and create a larger turnaround area for my driveway, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. They did excellent work from start to finish. The team was friendly, polite, and incredibly easy to work with. They took the time to explain my different options clearly and helped me choose the best approach for the space. They were also very flexible with scheduling and paid close attention to weather conditions and rain so the project could be done safely and without issues. I really appreciated how considerate they were of my neighbors as well—they made sure the heavy equipment didn’t damage the road and kept everything clean and respectful. "

"Excellent work. I needed to schedule the project between another one which pushed the schedule into the late fall. While many other's were not doing small projects or had closed down for the year, Kevin appraised exactly how the special issues could be addressed in one day. He and his work partner worked together very well, both hard workers and accommodating to special minor details. I highly recommend this company for excavations."

"Andy and Jesse and their team at Beds and Borders were outstanding. We met with them late fall 2019 and they charged us a reasonable price for a comprehensive plan to completely re-landscape our home. This involved a new retaining wall at the front of the home, new front patio, multiple new planting beds, plant recommendations, sod work, a gravel bed under our trampoline, and a new irrigation system. Andy was very responsive and worked with us throughout as we asked for tweaks and revisions, how we could save money, what we liked, etc. The project was implemented this spring over the course of just 4 days and looks beautiful! We are very happy with the project and would definitely hire Beds and Borders again."

"The crew was on time and and finished ahead of schedule. It was a large crew of about 8-9 people, mostly younger men, but supervised by older experienced concrete workers. One group excavated the old steps, while other groups came behind them, mixing the concrete, installing the molds, pouring and fine finishing the surface. The two sets of steps are connected by an S-curve walkway, which they also installed, and which needed a little more finessing to make the curves symmetrical on either side of the walk. They executed it perfectly. Ralph Dvorak, the manager, was very helpful and offered suggestions. He came by at the start of the job, and again at the end to do a final quality check at the end. We had one hairline crack in a lower step about one year later, but Ralph stopped by with special caulk to color-match and patch it. It's invisible now. Were were very pleased with the quality of the work and the crew's professionalism."

"Granite & Marble Direct's customer service team of Angie and Daniela began working with me on a custom bathroom vanity project.  They were extremely helpful in listening to my thoughts and ideas of what I wanted, and began working closely with me to achieve exactly the outcome and look we were hoping for.  The level of communication via both phone and e-mail kept was incredible, and very helpful.  They always got right back to me and answered questions quickly. <br /> They fantastic show room with many stone options to choose from and a bunch of slabs in their yard out back.  Angie called me later that week and said she had done some digging and actually found a quartz remnant that would work for my project!  Alex (the owner) was out shortly afterwards to do a great detailed measurement of my vanity to ensure that we had everything measured exactly right to get a great fit.   <br /> The level of attention to detail, customer service and quality of work I found at Granite & Marble Direct was beyond my expectations, and a rarity in this day and age in the level of professionalism typically given to the customer.  I vetted many other Granite places before deciding on Granite & Marble Direct, including major retailers like Lowes, Home Depot, Twin City Granite, and a few others that didn't come close to these guys.  And I wouldn't go or recommend anywhere else in the future except here. <br /> As all projects go - nothing is perfect, and we had a hiccup in the size of our stone remnant that came up just a few inches to short after Alex had come out and done the measurements.  This company not only stood behind their product and estimate, but ordered a full slab of the stone piece at their expense to be able to still get me the counter top that I wanted.  They also provided an upgraded edge design on my vanity counter, and two sinks were included in the price of the estimate. <br /> The final install, was also a great experience as a fantastic install team arrived on time and was quick to get the counter top installed and looking great.  Even here we had a slight issue, with some of the edges needed to be sanded down, and they did what needed to be done exceptionally well, without complaining, and got the job done right. <br /> I wanted to go into extensive detail on this job, because I know custom projects are not easy, but their team of individuals and ownership really stepped up and made this a great experience for me and I couldn't be happier with the outcome.  I would not go any place else if you are looking for counter top installation.  These guys have an incredible selection of styles and designs and can order any type of product if they don't have it in stock.  Incredible customer service and a great attention to detail and quality of craftsmanship make this one of the best run companies I have worked with! <br />"

"We met with Joel Forsberg to discuss our needs. He is very personable and knowledgable and understood exactly what we needed and had pertinent suggestions about materials. <br /> His experienced employees did an excellent installation job. There was a complication with a less important step in the job that involved spreading a small layer of concrete along the top of the stones that were at the base of the house. The problem was that it unexpectedly rained before the concrete dried, causing a film of concrete on face of the stones and making the concrete topping uneven. Joel responded quickly and removed the film. He also installed a mailbox post gratis in compensation. Great response. I noticed a crack on the side of the chimney that was allowing water to damage a wall inside the house. (This was not caused by the English Stone crew) I asked for help two days ago because we expect a thunderstorm tonight and Joel sent someone this morning to repair the crack. Great follow-up service. <br /> We have received many compliments on the new look of the stonework. <br />"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Loretto, MN

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.
