"I've worked with Start To Finish on several projects and they are great to work with. They do a great job, providing cost effective options, talking about different ways to approach the project and what the pros and cons are, so as a consumer who doesn't do these kinds of things very often I still feel like I can make an informed decision. The project went according to plan, and as always Jeff and team followed up to make sure everything was just right."

"Travis, the owner, came to my home for an estimate and explained the process that we needed to go through to fix our driveway. He gave suggestions on materials and equipment. As a young man I spent summers working excavation for my Grandfather, knowing what I learned from him I believe Travis knows what he is doing. We plan to have him come back soon to start the work."

"Yesenia Lara is a great small company to work with. They removed our old flower garden wall and replaced it with new blocks. That was not easy because of the contour of the yard. But with a lot of thought they got it done. It looks professional. They removed the old vegetation and replaced it with dirt and mulch for the new flower garden. They put mulch around the front of the house, around a tree and Lilac Hedge. They planted a Japanese Maple and installed a pop-up drain. They are very thoughtful, professional and you can tell by the final outcome. Great Job. Thank-You."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Pendleton, IN

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.
