"We had a major snow storm and our parking lot was covered in 10” of snow. We were in a big bind. Couldn’t get trucks in or out. I called Bill and he he was very understanding regarding our urgent need. Bill came out and cleared the lot and allowed us to get up and running. The price Bill charged us was very fair. I would highly recommend Bill to anyone in need of any service they provide. Fast and fair!!!"

"It took a couple of phone calls to get a time set for an on-site estimate but after that, the work happened and finished very quickly. We shook hands on the work and all the materials discussed I'm not sure were used, but I believe it was for the best. The finished work was so good, I could hardly believe it. I wasn't home when the work happened, but he showed up as promised and my neighbor said with a crew of about 10 workers. The finished a project that would have taken me a week or maybe much more in about 5 hours. The came, did a great job, cleaned up and left. I was very satisfied.
The only thing I might have done differently for a big project like mine would have been to draw up a contract with itemized costs. I think I came out a winner, but in this day in age it could have very easily gone the other way. Mr. Huerta is a very hard working and as far as I can tell honest person. He was very polite and professional. I trusted him and it worked out.

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Roland, AR

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.
