"They are great. Their pricing is good. Their personal service is excellent. They ship a lot of things free and comes the next day. I ordered my last order and it didn't come. I called and talked to the owner and he sent it to me for free because for some reason it did not get processed. I got it the next day as well. They are very nice. They have a great selection of tiles. They are definentially economically priced compared to other suppliers."

"Contacted for an estimate and the owner came out promptly. He explained what had to be done to repair the problem and also what 'unknowns' might turn up once everything was taken apart. We agreed on a date to do the job. The work was performed promptly, and professionally. Communication was very good. Everything was cleaned up before they left. I am very pleased with the results and would use them again. <br />"

"Steve is very professional and very knowledgeable. He gave a detailed written estimate and performed the job as scheduled. The finished patio was better then we had imagined. But Steve wasn't satisfied. He thought the color was off. So he came back and redid it at no additional cost. The total price was much lower then we had received from other contractors. And the work is absolutely excellent. We give him an unqualified positive referral."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Penn Valley, CA

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.
