"We completely lucked out with South Brooklyn Masonry. When we needed a new driveway, I asked real estate broker and architect friends for a mason, and they came up empty. I went onto Home Advisor and within minutes, I had a call from South Brooklyn Masonry. They came to my home that same day and started the following day. They did a wonderful job. The price was right. We could not be more pleased."

"Had used another company previously but was looking to change to another company. Found SealPro on this site, and after reading some reviews and checking their site I called and asked a few follow up questions. Satisfied with the answers I retained SealPro. There price was competitive with what I previously paid, but I can't say if the price was high, low or just right since I didn't get other estimates. Had to wait a while for them to schedule me, and that happened only when I called to inquire as to when they might be coming. I was told that due to the amount of rain they were a bit backed up (reasonable answer) and they could actually schedule me in a couple of days. They showed up on time, worked quickly and cleanly, and the driveway looks as good as one could hope for given what sealing does. The few questions I had when they were on site were answered well, and I felt very comfortable with my choice. Just have to manage your expectations because there were a few imperfections and I actually consulted someone I know out of state who explained to me what causes those imperfections, in that sealing is not a resurfacing and imperfections that were there previously sometimes become more noticeable with a fresh application of sealant."

"Our 1925 corner lot building needed immediate repairs. The metal cornice and it’s existing paint was flaking away and few cracks and dings. Innovation team came and scraped away all loose paints. They have also used bondo for all holes and cracks on the cornice. The primer was applied and then final coat took place. The color and their final finish was amazing! Thanks Innovation."

"There was a chimney leak in or apartment and the entire apt was covered in soot and smoke. The problem was so bad we moved out. Once the chimney was repaired. We called Steven from SHS based on his great ratings on Angie's list. They came in on Monday cleaned up all the soot & smoke damage. Then began the process of priming and painting. The apartment was painted to perfection for a very low price. The floors were striped, sanded sealed in polyurethane, our apartment has never looked better. Steven helped with great designs for the apartment, the wallpaper and paints. We are so pleased with the finished product, the price, and mostly the high level of service Steven and his crew provided for us. We are back in our apartment & are loving it!"

"Overall, I am satisfied with the work done. They came promptly at the beginning of the day and were done by the end of the day. The only things that kept me from an A rating were that the grass reseeded areas did not respond well, although I realize the August is not the best month for this activity. One of the bushes that I kept was to be trimmed from the top; instead, the bottom was mostly removed leaving a rather funny looking bush. Also, the contract called for some of the areas to be outlined with stones and that didn't happen. Some of the areas were to be planted with pachysandra, but no new plants were planted. Instead, some of the old plants from other areas were placed but are only partially successful in taking. Still, with all that, I would definitely have them back again."

"I can't sing enough praises for this Father/Son Construction Corp.! Because it was imperative that all this work be done in the proper <br /> order, we had 2 or 3 meetings prior to the starting of the work. They were instrumental in thinking all of it through carefully and then <br /> giving us their expert opinions. <br /> We were given the schedule of the week, depending on weather predictions of course. <br /> Each and every day they arrived punctually and put in a full day's work and were back the next day, always on schedule. <br /> They were super organized with delivering dirt, item 4, gravel, stone, etc. <br /> They were super careful wherever they were working to insure nothing around the work area was damaged, <br /> Each day they cleaned up meticulously after themselves insuring that our property wasn't defaced in any way. <br /> Our front walk looks like a mosaic piece of art. They even asked if we would like to incorporate a few stones from the original walk, as our home was built in 1928. The father, Rocco, supervised every stone that was cut - shape, size, etc. and his workers implemented it. It was like watching artists at work. (and I want to add they did a new back walk for us 2 years ago plus an entirely new back landing which is the identical workmanship). <br /> They assisted us in removing all that was inside the garage and adjusted the schedule to accommodate us. <br /> Their attention to detail is impeccable! <br /> Friendly, kind, mannerly, trustworthy, hardworking, honest....what more can we ask for? <br /> We have great satisfaction in knowing that anytime we need to have any type of outside construction, masonry, stone work etc. done, that Rocco Construction Corp. will be our company of choice and only a phone call away! Everyone should experience this work ethic! <br /> I will recommend them to anyone I can! <br />"

"Without a doubt our project with Sunnyside Masonry was the best contractor experience I've ever had in NYC. The owner, Aidan, nailed all the the crucial P's: promptness, professionalism, precision and price (a bargain, given the scope of the work). He showed up to give me an estimate the day I called, had a design for us the day after and was on-site everyday once work began. His crew is amazing - they hauled about 15 tons of gravel, sand, stone dust and bluestone up the front steps, through our brownstone, down the back steps and into the backyard without so much as a scratch. The house was prepped and protected in the morning (plastic and moving blankets on the floors) and restored at the end of day, so the whole project was minimally invasive, and completed in a week. Best of all, the work - both design and execution - was impeccable, and beautiful. It'll last forever. I've been dealing with contractors in the city for 20+ years, and it was such a pleasure to work with someone reliable who does exactly what he says he's gong to do and charges what he estimated (to the penny). I wish these guys did electrical and plumbing, too! Overall, a perfect (and exceedingly rare) experience. Can't recommend Sunnyside Masonry enough."

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

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.
