"Well this was a great experience . We hired them after our free initial consultation and they showed up a week later with team of 5 guys and the beautiful 5 ft tall trees , not the sad wimpy ones we saw in the big box stores . With 5 guys the install was fast & furious . The process was completed in about 45 minutes. They cleaned up after themselves and were careful as not to damage my grass . We are already planning another big project with them ."

"Called for a quote and within a day I had someone out at my facility helping me decide the best color and texture to go with for some decorative curbing at my home. Long story short I was so impressed with some of the work the salesman showed me that I ended up having surface pro do a major makeover of my landscaping. They did 500ft of curbing, a dozen palm trees, lights, and gravel for my driveway. They left no mess and we’re very professional, great guys I have recommended to all of my friends and family."

"Three years ago Ross Services installed travertine tiles on my lanai/pool deck. They did an excellent job. Three years later, three tiles were damaged, one as a result of the repair of a pool leak. I called Brandon at Ross Services and explained the problem. Within a reasonable period of time Brandon got back to me and gave me a time that the repair would be done. The repair was completed by a gentleman name Brian, who did an excellent job. Much to my surprise there was no charge for this repair and service call. I would highly recommend Ross Services for anyone looking for tile/paver work and the many other services they provide."

"I have had this company for over four months mow and edge our lawn.  They are responsive to phone calls and any questions or concerns we might have.  Our neighbor notified us of a sprinkler head that was gushing.  I contacted Beautiful Boundaries about the sprinkler head assuming the mowing crew had something to do with it.  I got a response right back from the company and someone came out to look at and correct the problem within 3 to 4 business days. <br />"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Port Charlotte, FL

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.
