"Matt and his team came and got me out of a jam when every other landscaper I spoke with let me down. He did exactly what I needed him to at a price I could afford. There was no frustration, no b.s. To put it simply I can't recommend him enough and there's no doubt I will be using him for all my future projects."

"I had contacted Modern Paving to get an estimate on an asphalt driveway to replace my gravel driveway. Sam answered and made arrangements to come and give me the estimate. He was punctual when arrived on the agreed day. He measured the driveway and we discussed the job and agreed on the price. He indicated that if the weather held the job would be completed within the next two weeks. There was an unexpected cancellation and to my surprise I was able to fit into that empty slot. Sam abs his crew showed up and began working immediately. Measurements were taken, the area was marked off and Sam involved me in that process to make sure it was where I wanted. The driveway was graded and raked. When the asphalt arrived the crew worked quickly to spread and compact it. The crew graded a difficult area to help prevent water collecting. The job was completed by mid afternoon and looks absolutely amazing! So happy with the results. Highly recommended"

"Dealing with Cooper Paving and Sealing was effortless from my first phone call. The gentleman that sealed my driveway were friendly and professional. They were halfway finished before I even knew they were here. Driveway looked amazing when they were done. After a couple of days, I had an question regarding the application. I emailed my question and got a response immediately. It was a holiday week so the guys were on vacation but Jacqui told me she would get back to me when they were returned. Monday morning she responded and told me they would look into my concern. Shortly, thereafter, I had my answer and we were all set. When this company says it is all about customer service..they actually mean it!! I highly recommend Cooper Paving and Sealing!! Their work is amazing and their work ethic and follow through in response to their customer service is outstanding!"

"The second time I have used Pacific Stone and Tile in lass than a year and my experience this time was just as fantastic as the first time. very reasonable price and the final product looks better than we had visioned. Sal came out and explained all issues and keep me in the loop with updates as our quartz was backordered. The crew was meticulous with their measurements, making sure no gaps were showing due to sloping floors or crooked walls. They were very thorough with the install. You can tell immediately the pride Sal and his crew take in their work. The installers were as friendly as the owner, they kept the area clean and and were very considerate of me and my family. I plan on using Pacific Stone and Tile every time I need countertops."

"Excellent top-quality work provided as promised in a very timely and professional manner. Amount charged was exactly as per the written estimate. After our first stucco crack repair project was completed and the decision was made to tackle another phase, we were so comfortable doing business with Adelino that we paid him in full upfront so that we could travel as planned and not worry about sending installment checks. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!"

"We received excellent service with our sod installation. Our lawn looks phenomenal, and after installation we were always asked if the sod was growing in full. I would most definitely recommend them to anyone."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Newport, RI

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.
