"They did an amazing job! They took care of all the river rock and gravel around my house and completely transformed what was a total disaster into something beautiful. The attention to detail and hard work really showed in the final result. I even had a few modifications during the project and they were completely accommodating. Everything looks clean, professional, and perfectly finished. I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out! Highly recommend them for any landscaping work."

"Thanks to Alex and his crew of meticulous, hardworking, artistic tradesmen of Soil and Stone Landscape my wife and I how have a beautiful, spacious, and usable yard. The front porch, back stairs, back and side yards of our house are now covered with newly installed colorful pavers and drain rock which replaced the unsightly grass areas filled with weeds and brown dirt. The old and deteriorating wood fence on the back, side and front of the property was replaced with a strong, sturdy and wind resistant wood fence. All this work was performed expeditiously and with good judgement by Alex and his workers while we were away from our home. When we returned home, we were amazed with what we saw when we walked around our house and through the yard. It was a beautiful sight to behold! Thank you, Alex, you did an outstanding job!"

"I am really pleased with our new backyard patio. I contacted 4 businesses and NW Patio was by far the lowest bidder for the project. Ray (an owner of the business) was able to fit our smaller project earlier into the schedule than he had anticipated. When a mid-project interruption occurred, the crew came on a Saturday so the project was concluded by the end of the week (the pallets/extra pavers also were picked up that Saturday). The team leader for the installation, Pablo, was a pleasure to work with, extremely helpful when resolving design issues and always courteous and patient with my inquiries. The transformation of our back yard with the addition of the new patio is amazing."

"They came on time (4 men and worked efficiently) as scheduled to do a spring yard clean up and did it, but I had hoped to have new bark put down, and all the branches, weeds, and trimmings hauled away.  After they got here, I found out that they didn't bring in any bark or materials or didn't haul away anything either.  It was way too much waste for our yard waste can so we had to haul it away ourselves which was a pain.  I had previous years had a different guy do spring clean-ups who did bring in bark, hauled away the trimmings, and trimmed and weeded a lot more and left it looking a bit neater.  He was just one man working alone and cost more and it took him all day instead of just a couple hours that cloudy sky took, but I decided this spring to go back to the original guy who cost more but did more.  Cloudy Sky did a fine job, especially for the price, but my other guy does a much better and complete job, and we need the bark brought in an the mess hauled away after....a littler more flexibility to do what we want.

"I did pay more on top of the big deal.  They tried to change the price with some special kind of sand and then I guess they figured in since they were going to make a bunch more money or something and he didn't buy enough additional bricks or what have you they tried to double on the sand and the sealant and we just said never mind.  So we still ended up with some more money spent for the pavers.  It was highly annoying.  So we the right hand guy who took the original measurements and he got fired and also mismeasured.  There was also scheduling issues with that.  They ended up surprising us with just showing up.  Once they were out here the people who did the work did good work.  If it rains heavily now it gets pushed up against the house."

"Great start, the work was halted for a week due to unforeseen damage to the water pipes. This was not the Concrete Champs Co.'s fault, previous owners of our home had redone the water pipes not to code and the water pipe was right below the driveway, rather that 2 feet. After the water pipe was repaired and placed further down per code, the driveway construction was resumed.. No further issues and we know have a high quality driveway that was built correctly, with layers of gravel, re-bar reinforcement, and sealed after completion. It looks great and is built to last."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Mercer Island, WA

Most shed foundations benefit from a gravel layer four to six inches deep after proper compaction. The exact depth may vary depending on your specific soil conditions, climate, and shed weight. In areas with poor drainage or for heavier structures, contractors might recommend slightly deeper installations. Building the pad in multiple compacted layers rather than a single thick pour helps achieve optimal stability and load distribution.

Gravel pads cost significantly less than concrete foundations. While gravel materials run about $1.25 to $1.80 per square foot, concrete slabs average $6 per square foot. For a standard shed base, this price difference translates to substantial savings. Beyond the initial cost advantage, gravel pads also offer easier installation, simpler modifications if needed, and don't require specialized concrete finishing skills.

For a standard 10-by-12 shed pad, you'll need enough gravel to cover 120 square feet at the recommended depth. At rates of $1.25 to $1.80 per square foot, expect to spend $150 to $216 on gravel materials alone. Remember to factor in extending the pad beyond the shed's dimensions by one to two feet on each side for better drainage and stability, which increases the actual area needed.

The ideal gravel for shed foundations combines stability with proper drainage capabilities. Crusher run ($0.40 per square foot) makes an excellent base layer because it contains various particle sizes that lock together when compacted. For top layers, angular gravel provides better drainage while maintaining stability. Avoid perfectly round decorative stones as they don't compact effectively and may shift under weight, compromising your shed's stability over time.
