"They were 30 minutes early and got right to work. They appreciated our input on exactly what to cut and never hurried our decisions. They were very protective and careful of our property and home. All cut limbs and small trees were chipped using their own chipper. Cleaned up well afterward. Rather than calling them tree trimmers, it would be more accurate to say they were tree surgeons. In my opinion, they are the best of the best."

"We visited their showroom and liked that we could see full slabs of granite. They were very informative which helped us make a good decision. They were easy to work with and responsive to my questions. The only thing I would have liked is a call the day before installation to let me know when they were going to arrive at my home the next day."

"The estimating and quoting phase went perfectly.  When it came time for installation, there was a problem with one of the materials, it was ordered in the wrong color.  They quickly got the correct material in house to correct the error and keep the project on track. <br /> In the end, the installation was beautiful and perfect.  The installers were courteous, clean and professional.  The price of the project was reasonable for the product and service received. <br />"

"The project came out much better than I ever thought it would. We had pulled up the carpet and tile on the basement floor and it had left a black mastic that we could not get up. We did not want either tile or carpet back in the basement in case of any water leeks. Although  A O Handy is in Wisconsin, they assured me that it was not a problem for them coming to Chicago for the work. They ground down the cement floor in the basement (about 1000 sq ft) to remove the mastic and to level out some floor. In addition, they filled holes with a cement that matched the existing floor. They applied a clear sealer to the floor. While they were there, they suggested that they seal the concrete floor in the garage. Since they had all the materials there already, the cost would be significantly lower. Made sense to me, so I had them do that also. In that I had put most of the things from the basement in the garage, preping the garage was a huge job. The guys helped me clear out the garage and were a big help, especially with the heavy things. The only down side to the project was the odor from the sealer. The garage odor cleared out quickly, but it took weeks for the basement to air out since there was so little ventilation there. The finished results: LOVE, LOVE, LOVE??.. <br />"

"we built a swing set for our boys and we needed to put the washed pea gravel. when i called them and asked about woodchips and told them my concerns about how often we would have to replace it as well as for drainage because our backyard holds a lot of water she had suggested the pea gravel. i am so glad i did that instead of dealing with wood chips. they were so nice and i called and the next day they had it delivered. i asked if they could put it in two piles one in the front yard and one in the backyard and they said not a problem. they were so nice to work with. i would use them again. thank you so much you made two little boys so happy."

"Mr. Kienast was outstandingly prompt, kind, and clear in our phone conversations. He did not try to scare me into a whole new system (which happened to me with another company) but was perfectly content to fix the old. I just came home from work the day he said he'd be out to look it over, and the job was done and the site all cleaned up. The price came in about as expected, given the extra work that was required."

"Inherited a gas fireplace that had quit working and was the cause of a cold draft. Pat determined the causes of both problems and quickly fixed both. He was also a willing source of information on how best to regulate and utilize this heat source. <br />"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Ripon, WI

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.
