"ACEncio is a great company to do business with. From the moment I talked to Reynaldo he took the time to answer my questions and made me feel very comfortable with me hiring him to do the job. He did â notâ pressure me - he let me ask questions and think about it - he was flexible and explained the process he would take to expand my patio. He arrived on time, he went the extra mile to lay plywood to help protect my yard by minimizing any damage from his equipment. He was well organized and went straight to work - he let me know when the concrete was due to arrive and he was ready to pour and spread the concrete when it did arrive. He was going to haul away the excess dirt and grass he removed in preparation for the patio expansion but I mentioned I had a low area at the edge of my yard that collects water when it rains and he filled in that area with the excess dirt and grass. He took his time to spread and smooth out the new patioâ s concrete to make sure it was perfect - he did a better smoothing out the new patioâ s concrete than the builder did with the â originalâ patio. He cleaned up the yard afterwards and told me to call him if I had any questions about the concrete curing or any issues - I do not expect any issues as he did a professional job. After meeting him and seeing his work - all the reviews I read about how great he was were 100% correct - I would hire him again if I ever need any concrete work done - definitely recommend him."

"They called to move our first appointment up, which I thought was great. Showed up on time looked at the job and gave me a quote in about 5 minutes. I thought the quote was very good so I ask when they could get it done and was told he would have someone there in the morning which was wonderful. Very friendly crew from start to finish for the entire process was 24 hours and the driveway looks great and the neighbors want to know who did the job. I would say they will have more work in our neighborhood. I plan to have them install a new fence for me next."

"Jose did an excellent job with planting over 20 bushes and shrubs and he leveled the top soil and spread and compacted mulch in my front yard. His prices were very reasonable and I would recommend him again. In fact I have contracted him to build a retainer wall in my back yard."

"The lawncare "tech" that was dispatched to aerate & seed provided a courtesy call letting us know of his early arrival which was great. He provided a satisfactory estimate and went right to work. Very satisfied with the service."

"I highly recommend Corona Landscaping!! They landscaped a large hill on our property (which included installing two sets of stairs), created a paved/brick walkway to match a patio already in place, and installed multiple drain lines to direct water on our property away from the driveway when it rains. Miguel and his crew are very professional, listened to our ideas and made wonderful suggestions regarding our projects. The crew worked continuously from beginning to end of the project until it was completed to our satisfaction. Wonderful experience overall, and will be contacting them for landscaping needs in the future!!"

"Jon Jon and Jonathan Edwards were both fantastic to work with. They showed up when they said they would and their work was top notch. I would never have guessed there's an art to piling up rocks, but it was obvious the pride these guys take in their work. We've received multiple compliments from boaters going by on the work they did. Would hire them again in a heartbeat."

"We had a great experience with The Stoneman. From the first point of contact until the project was complete they were always in communication with us. In a day when it can be so hard to get contractors to respond to you this was very refreshing. We submitted a request online and Chris called the next day. He showed up exactly when he said he would and took time to walk through all of the details of our project with us. We had a stone patio that was sinking due to poor construction. We ended up having the patio reconstructed and added a small sitting wall and fire pit. After listening to what we wanted, Chris created a drawing that showed what the project would look like at the very end. It was so nice to be able to look at the finished product up front and be able to make tweaks as needed. Once the drawing was complete we were added to the project list and were sent weekly updates letting us know the approximate time our project would begin. Once our project was about to start we were assigned a project manager. The project manager visited us ahead of time to go over any questions before beginning the work. The crew that came onsite was very professional and never left a mess. If we had any questions during the project then the project manager would respond immediately and all concerns were addressed immediately. We have never worked with such a responsive and professional company. We would definitely recommend and would use them in the future."

"The contractor was easy to get in touch with and very quick to schedule the delivery. The driver dropped the stone while I was not at home and as instructed dropped the stone in various sections of the driveway to make it easier for me to spread. I will certainly use the contractor again and have recommended them to friends. <br />"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Mount Holly, NC

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.
