"Cornman Concrete and Paving did four projects at my new farmette: installed a new gravel parking area at the side of my house and concrete walkway to my front door, regraveled and regraded my badly damaged driveway, installed gravel in a grassy area next to my barn to allow trucks to deliver, and installed a high traffic area pad for my horses. All done quickly and exactly as I had hoped!"

"Triple H came last year to do our driveway, after a terrible experience with the guy running the job, we posted a bad review. The owner saw our review and reached out to us to make things right. He was super nice and professional. It says a lot about a company when they take responsibility and fix mistakes. We would definitely recommend Triple H since there was a change in management, even the employees seem happier and cared about their work. Thank you Rich and to the guys who came back, you did a FANTASTIC job!"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Mechanicsburg, PA

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.
