"I can highly recommend Best Stone Makers for your next concrete project! They just finished replacing most of my sidewalk this week, and I had a 90-foot section of deteriorating sidewalk replaced, as well as a 50-foot uneven sidewalk and steps in front of my front porch redone. Davinson and his crew did an outstanding job, and were very methodical and professional, with great communication of what was happening at every stage of the job! "

"Frontline Emergency did an outstanding job repairing my gravel driveway. The driveway is extremely long and needed several truckloads of stone, and Evan and his team handled everything perfectly. Their attention to detail and quality of work are incredible. We are proud to support a first responder owned business. They will also be coming back soon to mulch all of my Russian olive trees and we are happy to have them take care of that project too."

"We are extremely satisfied and happy with our new driveway, paver walkways, and entrance stairs. Carlos, Augie and their team were all gentlemen. No pressure, no double talking, we proceeded on our own pace. Mata LLC blew the other Co's we quoted out of the water with their pricing, quality and workmanship. I would most definitely recommend his services to my family and friends. Thank you Carlos for a wonderful experience. Izzy & Maria Rodriguez"

"So happy with my new bathroom! Jim and his team did awesome work every step of the way. Jim presented a proposal and a plan with great advice , helped me choose fixtures, tile and overall design and helped me stay within my budget. The project was on time and with minimal disruption to my home. Communication was excellent …I always knew what was next, what time they were starting each day , when inspections were happening, etc. My house is 100 years old and gutting the bathroom presented some surprises but didn’t phase JRL Design! Jim even saved and rebuilt the original window and door. Also , because they expanded the bathroom and opened the wall to the next room, that whole room was restored beautifully as well. Overall, I had 100% trust in Jim and his team and knew from the beginning that he was invested in making sure I was very happy with the outcome. My master bath is now the nicest room in the house. Grateful to Jim and JRL Design."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Princeton, NJ

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.
