"Matt and his company did through and quality work. We couldn't have been happier with the end result. He went above and beyond to ensure we were happy with the work that was done. We had several bids and he was 1/3 of the cost the others were. But more importantly he stood behind the work he did and was a man of his word which is so hard to find. If you're struggling to find someone who is reliable and does quality work look no further. You won't be dissappointed"

"Ian drove out the day I contacted him about having a French drain installed. After looking and listening to my concerns he gave me his advice and estimate on my drainage problem. His plan and knowledge was so much better than mine, but he told me to sleep on it and/or get more estimates. I called him the next morning and he started that day and finished the next. He even came in $100 less than he quoted me. It’s been raining ever since and it’s been draining beautifully. Ian was very professional, kind, and timely. I am very grateful for his quick response and a job well done. 5 stars!!"

"I would recommend this company, I had a storm drain installed and a concrete slab with a foundation wall to keep rain water from getting into our garage and under the foundation. I would definitely use this company again."

"We first hired Robles Landscaping to spread about 20 yards of wood chips in our yard. Juan Robles and his team arrived at the job site on time, were efficient and hard workers at a reasonable price. They were also friendly and cheerful. When a second, larger project came up, we got three bids and theirs was the best. Juan helped make the garden design more attractive and again he and his team did a great job. We have no reservations in recommending them and will hire them again."

"Tim was excellent to work with. From the beginning of the job to the end, the communications was the best. After getting a few different bids, we could tell that Reach Dirt Works gave a fair estimate for the job that was needed for our excavation, leveling and gravel needs. The job was completed in the time given, with high quality work done. I would absolutely recommend Tim and Reach Dirt Works to anyone needing this type of work done. Thanks to Tim a Jack. Thank you, Dan"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Mount Vernon, WA

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.
