"Recently I purchased a new home in a neigborhood swarming with wildlife. After erecting a bird feeder, I became hooked on bird watching and knew it was time to redo my front bed to attract more birds, butterlifes and bees. So I turned to Master Gardner, horticulturist and arborist, Dan Fendley of Plant it Forward LLC. I hit the jack pot. His knowledge of plants native to our area that would be perfect for attracting nautre all year-round is astounding. Not only will these pollinators atrract all sorts of wildfile, but they will also provide color in the garden throughout all the seasons. And, his design, is so beautiful. Workign with Dan Fendley is a dream come our. His work is the envy of all my neighbors."

"When they estimated job my concern was paving on top of walkway and was told that it would not be a problem. After only 6 months I had pavers coming loose as well as the fill used between pavers is non-existent now. Very poor job and would never use or recommend them to anyone. I did contact company 6 months later to fix problems starting but got no follow up to fix problem."

"Two others came and gave me an estimate for exactly what I asked for. Then Mr. White showed up. He shook his head and said "that's not really what you want." His plan was quite different and turned out to be EXACTLY what I wanted! I think his years of experience allows him to visualize what needs to happen. I wanted a ramp so I could age-in-place. I got my ramp but also a fully functional carport that was previously unusable. The ramp is subtle and blends with the surroundings. Curtis White wasn't the lowest estimate it was worth every penny. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Mr. White is fair, honest and does what he says he is going to do when he says he will do it. His crew is professional and hard working. He really knows this stuff! "

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