"Austin and his crew were very friendly and acted on a professional level. They played crushed rock on my driveway that is great only thing is I wished they would have went over it with the roller a little more. Would recommend this company."

"We had Bustillo Landscaping remove all of our old landscaping, and replace it with new plants and mulch. They also rebuilt a stone retaining wall in our back yard that had been falling over. They re-stacked the stones and put mortar between them to hold them in place, and the new wall looks great! They came out on a Thursday morning to give us an estimate (which was very reasonable), and when we agreed to the price, they started work immediately removing all the old bushes (which were very overgrown). They couldn't work that Friday due to weather, but they came out Saturday and spent 15 hours (!!) completing the job. I would recommend them for landscaping projects (it may help to have the Google translate app on your phone though)."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Rusk, TX

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.
