"We were very happy with Cruger Contracting. They removed our old walkway and installed a new one with Cambridge pavers. It looks beautiful! He also took out our old overgrown bushes. He was very helpful with suggestions about the best plants for our space. He?s very knowledgeable about plants and landscaping. James was very responsive to all our questions. He is conscientious and takes pride in his work. He even did more than we asked! Most importantly, he came when he said he would or called to let us know if he was running late. As anyone knows who has dealt with contractors before that is too often a rarity. He and his crew worked very hard and we were very pleased with the end result. We highly recommend James and his crew."

"We hired Well's to pave a parking area and long driveway. They showed up when promised and did high quality work. Before the job, we decided we wanted a couple additions to the initial proposal and the extra charge they suggested was more than fair. We were especially pleased when the prep work ripped up a wire just inches below the surface that I had forgotten about. Someone came and got me and together we traced out what the wire was for (a lead to a sub surface array of ground rods). The crew switched to preping another area while one of the guys helped me install a replacement wire. They could have just shrugged off finding a single buried wire but they did not."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Poughkeepsie, NY

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.
