"They were scheduled to get to my home between 8:00 and 8:15 am.  and arrived right on time.  The crew began work immediately and had the work done by noon.  They cleaned up after themselves and we are very pleased with their work.  I wouldn't hesitate to call Pat again for my landscaping needs."

"I found Roger to be very professional and honest. The workmanship is excellent, and the completed project exceeded my expectations. There was a lot of attention to detail, and I did not have to ask for any changes or improvements. They got it right on the first try. They finished off the yard around the patio with sod and took care of some tree branches without me asking them to do either. I could have had a patio party the day they finished without having to clean up a thing. I would highly recommend Brick Creations for this type of project. While it was not inexpensive, I got my money's worth and a 2-year guarantee."

"I had purchase the $1399 Deal to have paver stone patio installed in the back yard. Working with Maria, I decided to expand from 10x20 space to cover the entire width of my garage.  The additional price quoted was fair.  Because I purchased the service in October 2013, the weather was changing and the window of opportunity to install was small. Nevertheless, Maria and her crew were able to install the patio within 3 days (1 day had rain). 
The crew arrived promptly,  were courteous and were professional.  Maria remained on site supervising the work. I am please with the patio and plan to use the company for future landscaping project.

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Oak Park, IL

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.
