"Contacted Allied Asphalt and they responded promptly to give me a quote. Max gave me various options to choose from and within 5 days they had replaced my gravel grassy driveway with crushed asphalt. Rainstorm yesterday further affirmed my choice as puddling areas were no longer present with their regrading of the driveway. Would highly recommend."

"Rodney is a Pro that knows what he's doing. He and his crew installed a driveway today and did a fantastic job. He and his crew were friendly and easy to talk with. The price quoted was fair and was exactly what I thought it should be. I had 3 stumps ground out the day before and he cleaned up the shaving and filled the holes for no extra charge. Just did it to be nice. Driveway is great. If you want paving work done, this is the company to call. Great experience."

"I wanted to give them a great review, the owner is extremely friendly and patient and had fair prices. They were going to redo my paved patio and install front landscaping. I was away for work when they installed landscaping, I was told about the pavers for edging they were going to use. But when I came home, I saw that the just used leftover bricks from the patio. They put one with a huge rust stain right in front that looked terrible and one brick was cracked on the side part of edging. I Ended up Removing the edging all together and redid it myself with different edging. ( I was also supposed to have bright fuchsia-colored lilies and I had dark red.) Also, the entire outer row of bricks on my patio came loose. The owner called back and sent someone to fix it without any issue. It is ok now but they used yellowish sand when they came back to fix it and the other sand is gray. It is noticeably different, when I removed the patio rug there is a huge line of the hardened sand on the concrete that I cannot seem to get all of it out just yet. The owner also told me he would get me a specific ground cover for a portion of the landscape, and he never did. I was very excited when I hired them and had high hopes that my outside would finally look like it should. While it looks better than it originally did, I feel like they tried to cut some corners on this project that ended up costing me more afterward. I just wish they would have put a little more care into it and really made it a quality work."

"I found Sammson concrete on Angie's list and gave them a call.  I was called back in less than an hour by the owner, Steve.  I explained what I wanted and he provided some useful information about the codes specific to where I live.  He came out, had a look, and provided me an estimate by the end of the first day.  Steve said I may need to wait up to two weeks depending on the weather, for an opening.  One of his staff called back the next day, however, and said there was an unexpected opening and could they install my patio the following day.  I said yes.  The next morning, Brian, Steve's son, Steve, and about 5 other workers arrived.  They were careful not to tear up my existing landscaping by putting down plywood anywhere they needed to walk on grass.  They were quick and efficient.  They tore out my old walkway, dug out the area, put in gravel and then poured the concrete.  They completed the project in about 4 hours and then cleaned up so well you couldn't tell they were there.  Very impressive!  From start to finish, I felt like they were treating me like I was spending tens of thousands of dollars when in fact it was just a small patio.  I highly recommend Sammson Concrete to anyone looking for concrete patios."

"Our undermount sink separated from our quartz countertop. (Clips holding it gave way. No way to reattach.) Had someone out who pinpointed the problem but recommended a counter repair. I bought a new bigger overmount sink. Some problems with our phone number and doorbell meant he missed an appointment but promptly contacted us via email, he picked up the new sink we ordered that day and came late to install it for us. A late 3 hours later we had a lovely new sink. Good work and good follow through."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Merrillville, IN

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.
