"Daniel and his team went above and beyond front start to finish with beauty as well as function with gravel. They all work together like a fine oiled machine with good work ethics and attitude. Even when they were done the area was spotless cleaned and hosed off. I have already recommended Daniel to several people. Nice to see the Old School work ethic still exists."

"Our 20 year old sprinkler system was in need of an overhaul because over the years the turf had become deeper and the sprinkler heads did not pop up high enough to adequately water the lawn and plants. We also had heads that were not retracting or even popping up due to overgrown grass. JP came out to inspect the system. He was great to work with, and very knowledgeable. He gave us a very fair quote for the work, which was just completed today in a timely and workmanlike fashion to our great satisfaction. Fixing the irrigation is our first step in redoing our complete landscape. Gary, the owner, came out to take a look at what needs to be done with the new plants. He really knows what he is talking about. I worked for a number of years in turf management when in college, so I know when someone is an expert. We look forward to working with Legacy to get the landscaping at our home updated. Thank you JP and Gary."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Marco Island, 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.
