"I had Branch X Branch Land Clearing, LLC put gravel down on my driveway, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. They did an excellent job leveling the ground, spreading the gravel evenly, and making sure everything was neat and solid. The driveway looks clean, drives smooth, and is a huge improvement over what I had before. The crew was professional, efficient, and paid close attention to detail. From start to finish, the process was quick and stress-free. The quality of their work really shows, and I’d highly recommend Branch X Branch Land Clearing, LLC to anyone needing driveway work or land services."

"Project was done quickly once started, maybe too quick though. The ground wasn't tilled and leveled, the metal edging wasn't dug in due to ground not being tilled, edging wasn't used at the gate so gravel spills into lawn (they did leave me a piece so I can do it myself). The crew was polite and presented themselves very well. Could've been some misunderstanding of what I wanted (details) possibly. Overall fair as the edging sticks 4 inches above the ground. Had to check no to rehire, but it's not a solid no."

"It was difficult for the guy because our gutters were pretty clogged but he did a great job and also made some recommendations. I don't remember when this service was provided; it took me a VERY long time to write this review. I rated punctuality as N/A because I honestly don't remember whether they were punctual or not, it was too long ago. I thought the guy was good, though."

"Donnie and his team are skilled professionals! They keep our yard and landscaping looking great, and are always quick to answer any questions we might have. They’re careful not to disturb anything in the driveway or on our deck, and they always leave any bulk items (ex bags of leaves) at the curb. We couldn’t be happier with the service they provide, and it is a GREAT value at the cost. They’ve also handled some medium size brush removal and planted privacy hedges, all while working around an in ground sprinkler system. If you have any lawn/landscaping needs, I recommend calling them first!"

"Antwoine from All In Landscaping arrived on time and began the task. He was joined shortly thereafter by a colleague and both gentlemen worked from 10:00 AM to 3:30 PM removing leaves and mowing/edging. The results were outstanding with all leaves removed from the lawn, including the back deck, and a thorough and professional mowing and edging were performed. I would definitely hire All In Landscaping for any future Landscaping/Lawn work that I might need. In fact, they did such a great job that my neighbor asked for their contact information in case he wanted to hire them for future work. I should also add that Antwoine and his colleague were thoroughly professional and courteous."

"They did an outstanding job. I worked primarily with Tim, he and his crew were excellent. They had a crew of 5-6 people working on the the project and it took them about 3 weeks to complete the remodel. The crew was clean while working on the remodel and after they finished."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Norfolk, VA

Most shed foundations benefit from a gravel layer four to six inches deep after proper compaction. The exact depth may vary depending on your specific soil conditions, climate, and shed weight. In areas with poor drainage or for heavier structures, contractors might recommend slightly deeper installations. Building the pad in multiple compacted layers rather than a single thick pour helps achieve optimal stability and load distribution.

Gravel pads cost significantly less than concrete foundations. While gravel materials run about $1.25 to $1.80 per square foot, concrete slabs average $6 per square foot. For a standard shed base, this price difference translates to substantial savings. Beyond the initial cost advantage, gravel pads also offer easier installation, simpler modifications if needed, and don't require specialized concrete finishing skills.

For a standard 10-by-12 shed pad, you'll need enough gravel to cover 120 square feet at the recommended depth. At rates of $1.25 to $1.80 per square foot, expect to spend $150 to $216 on gravel materials alone. Remember to factor in extending the pad beyond the shed's dimensions by one to two feet on each side for better drainage and stability, which increases the actual area needed.

The ideal gravel for shed foundations combines stability with proper drainage capabilities. Crusher run ($0.40 per square foot) makes an excellent base layer because it contains various particle sizes that lock together when compacted. For top layers, angular gravel provides better drainage while maintaining stability. Avoid perfectly round decorative stones as they don't compact effectively and may shift under weight, compromising your shed's stability over time.
