"When we first contacted them, Mariano came to give us a quote the very next day. The quote beat his competitors by a long shot, and he was a very nice guy who had received great reviews on Angie's List before. The initial yard clean-up & barkdust went forward as scheduled. We were delighted with his crew's work and speed with which they got it all done. However, once we scheduled them for twice monthly upkeep thereafter, there were THREE occasions where they did not show up on the day or time scheduled to do the maintenance. Each time we had to call and Mariano had someone there to do the work the next day, yet it was a major inconvenience not having them show when they would say they would. Our family's schedule is too busy for this kind of unreliability. Therefore we will not be using their services again this summer and will be hiring another company, even if that means paying a bit more."

"I realize it's the busy season, but I had to follow up twice to find out about the estimate and scheduling. Estimates were not itemized, so I had to request a breakdown of costs.  Although details of the job were gone over in person twice, and also on the phone, the job still didn't turn out exactly to the specs discussed, but overall the install looked nice. Clean up was disappointing, with excess gravel dumped into the flower beds behind retaining wall (which we now have to remove), and excess gravel was left in the driveway. Job was done on time and efficiently, and the owner and crew are very friendly. Crew showed up bright and early at 7:30 to get started!

"
For the past 20 years we have dreamed of having a nice patio and pond in our front yard.  We live in the Gorge and have a beautiful view, but where our house is located on the property, we must be outside to actually enjoy the view.  Once we saved enough money we started getting quotes to have the patio built and we were quickly deflated to find that the cost was going to be almost double the amount that we had saved.  So... we decided to attempt to do the project ourselves...UGH!  While we were at Metro Landscape pricing flagstones, we admired the patio along the side of their building.  It was exactly what we were looking for!   We asked who did the work and they gave us Rufino's phone number.  The rest is history!  Rufino came out and quoted us  the price that we could afford!
The project was fun to watch.  How quickly Rufino turned that ugly patch of ground into a work of art!  He and his helpers worked so hard!  Rufino is a perfectionist.  He has an eye for detail and expects to have things done correctly... always!  He does not cut corners or settle for "okay".  Everything must be perfect!  I was impressed with him after the first two hours he was at our home.  It is so refreshing in today's world to meet someone with such a great work ethic.  He takes great pride in his work and I  recommend him to anyone that needs a project done.  Rufino is honest, works harder than anyone I have ever met, and is a pleasure to work with.  Our patio turned out better than anything we ever dreamed possible.  We spend every moment out there now, enjoying our view as we sip coffee in the mornings, and enjoy the sunsets in the evening.  Rufino has made our dream a reality and we thank him every day for changing our little world.  Thank you Rufino."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Longview, WA

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.
