"From the start owner was here to give estimate as promised. Estimate was done on Wednesday evening and they started working removing mulch next day. Communicated the color of rocks available. Brought rocks by to look at. Started the wall Saturday morning and finished the same day. Also gave address of some work they done in the passed to go look at. What a great company. Will use again."

"Josh evaluated the job, made suggestions, gave me a quote and proceeded to do all the earth moving and readiness for a large steel building. He oversaw all the leveling with transits, backfill and compaction, gravel fill and placement of the pavers. He suggested decorative patterns, color schemes with different block and installed all of it in a timely manner. He was professional from start to finish. This is not the first time we have used Ground Effects and they continue to impress us with their level of perfection and attention to detail. We have recommended them many times to our friends and people in our field. We are real estate investors so we see this kind of work frequently and it can be very "suspect" if not completed properly. Top marks to Josh and his crew for another great job, its stunning!"

"The project could not have gone any better. From the initial estimate to the final walkthrough, our experience with HEMAX was a VERY welcome change of pace compared to previous landscaping projects with other local vendors. Our project coordinator (Chris) was very responsive and was at the worksite often (sometimes several times a day). His estimates were detailed, accurate, and fair. The work crew was exceptional - quick, efficient, courteous, and respectful of our property. In lieu of COVID-19 distancing precautions, HEMAX even had a port-a-potty delivered to our project site. HEMAX has earned my referral - and I would encourage anyone in the Northern VA area looking for landscaping/drainage solutions to give them a call."

"I am very pleased with the entire process working with Salzano Custom Concrete. With this being my first cement project, I truly appreciated the communication when I had a question or change in color/pattern. The entire Salzano staff was informative, thorough, and flexible from the first estimate to the final product. Everything looks great! Thanks again!"

"It went very well! Lewis Services is prompt and professional. They take pride in their work and do a wonderful job! We have used other lawn companies before to mow for us and they would come when they felt like it, whether the grass needed to be mowed or not. They would not do a thorough job mowing and weed eating. We are very pleased! Thank you for your dedication and hard work! Your caring attitude is appreciated!"

"While we initially went in for their free consultation to have a pavilion with fire place and stone work, they pitched a landscape plan for our entire property. We loved their design plan and they worked with us very well. Bill is a great guy and pleasure to work with. While we had a few quotes from other contractors, we chose Sharper Cuts. Overall work performed was very good. We had some concerns with grouting not filling pavers completely, but they came back to take care of this issue. Still, areas were still not done. Some of the flagstone tops used were not high quality with rust prevalent. Perhaps their supplier was the issue. They replaced inferior slabs. Plantings were good, but not great with some plants dying and needed replacing. Mulching was scantily done and we ended up spending close to $800 purchasing bulk mulch and laying more down ourselves. THE MAJOR problem we had was the damage done to our lawn along the path they used to drive the heavy machinery (like a Bobcat). They reseeded the area, but the ground was so compacted it didn't take. They came back and loosened the soil and re-seeded again. Much better but we still have a wide and long area where the ground is lower than the surrounding area due to the compaction. Kind of got tired asking for more work to be done. So, overall they are a very good contractor that strived to make things right. The reason for a "B" grade is the fact that issues should be addressed the right way the first time and not in a manner that patches the issue resulting in the customer having to call them back again. Still, they did respond promptly and did not avoid the issues. That is a BIG plus with any contractor. Perhaps they are trying to grow to big too fast and simply did not put the effort in to resolve the issues correctly the first time. Still, I think they are honestly trying their best and this may be a learning curve. We are thankful for their willingness to try to resolve issues despite still having issues outstanding."

"The project went very well as Mackie kept me informed every step of the way. The project required the work to be done in stages as time to dry was needed between the various steps of (1) cleaning (2) installation of polymeric sand and (3) sealer application. There was a glitch when a torrential rain storm came through within hours of the polymeric sand installation. Mackie was quick to respond and assured me the problem would be corrected. As soon as a window opened for appropriate weather conditions, the pavers were cleaned up from any sand roll-off and the polymeric sand installed again where needed. Two days later the sealer was applied and the project was complete. Other than the glitch with the rain, I was very satisfied with the work and the professionalism shown in completing this project."

"Initially, I was very unhappy with the job. The floor was covered in smears and I was told I would need to wipe them off as the floors dried. The grout was also still very cracked and the few repairs that had been done just had grout pushed in on top of the cracked grout. The next day I called and expressed my dissatisfaction so they scheduled the technician to come back out a week later. By the end of another 6 hours, the floor is beautiful! Cracked grout was cut out in necessary spots, new grout put in, and floors hand buffed. Very happy with the end result....just a little tough getting there."

"The company sent a person to review the work.  He promptly provided an estimate by email.  The company proposed to replace one broken flagstone and reset a few additional loose pieces.  In addition, they would repair some seams of mortar that had eroded.  Due to a variety of reasons, it turned out that I could not have the work done right away.  When I was ready a few months later, they scheduled the job within two days with no adjustment in price due to the delay on my part.  As it turned out, they had to replace and reset more flagstones than originally expected.  They did what was required at no increase in price in order to do a complete and quality job.  They cleaned the flagstonnes of residual mortar and cleaned up completely after the work was done.  The walkk and steps are fixed and look great.  I am very pleased by the work this company performed. <br />"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Lovettsville, VA

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.
