"Jesse with T&H Sealing & Paving did an amazing job for us. We had several companies come out and give quotes for two parking lots and two driveways. These were extremely old and broken concrete lots. Jesse was able to communicate his knowledge and expertise with this type of work. Upon request, Jesse provided references of past clients. He answered all questions and concerns. In the end, we made the right choice and would happily recommend him to anyone looking for asphalt paving. "

"Maurice quoted me on the driveway and 4 days later did the job. He educated me on the right way to Seal a driveway. The process he uses to seal a driveway is the Gold Standard. He and his partner Damion showed up and sealed the cracks in the driveway, prepped and edged and blew off the debris and by the time they were through it looked like a freshly poured asphalt drive. I can't be happier. These guys are the Go to guys. You will be very satisfied with the superb job they do. There are shortcuts to sealing a drive but Maurice has over 11 years of experience and maintains a great reputation with contracts with the Louisville Airport, Arbys, and McDonalds. He uses top of the line products and genuinely enjoys doing a job that the customer is happy with. He and his partner get 5 stars. Thank you guys! Hire them! You'll be happy you did!"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Louisville, KY

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.
