"We needed a few touch ups on our deck and a small hole fixed in the corner of our house. They took a little time to get to us due to demand, but once they did, they got it done quick and very professional. It all looks great."

"Jim and his team are professional, reliable and some of the nicest people I’ve ever met. They have transformed the outside of my house. We’ve had them install basement windows, as well as front and back doors. Most recently they changed two sliding patio doors, a garage door and replaced some damaged siding. Jamar’s quotes are always reasonable, they show up on time, their work is neat and they make sure to leave your property clear and clean. I highly recommend Jamar and will definitely use them again."

"Joe is responsive, explains everything he is going to do, and does an outstanding job. Seriously, the quality of his work is fantastic. I cannot recommend him enough. I stress to you, the level of quality and honesty is unmatched. He has now done work for me twice. Once on stair repair, which was fantastic. Second time, are the pictures below. The stairs finally needed full replacement, and boy were they. Look at the quality of work below. I assure you that is not how good those stairs originally looked. If you need any kind of work done to your stairs, Joe is the guy you gotta call. Highly, highly recommend!"

"I had them to redo my whole roof 1.5 year ago and I found a piece of shingle fell off recently. I contacted the owner and they stood behind their work and promise. He quickly scheduled a follow-up and sent his team to fix it in a short period of time. In these days you can easily find any contractors do the work and work away with your money. However once the job is done, you will never see them again when there are any issues. This will not happen to Hi Tech Contracting as they are professional, responsible and trustworthy. Highly recommended!"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Newark, NJ

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.
