"Alex and team did a great job with my front yard. He scheduled a start time and was punctual. Installed 5 valves and connected associated sprinkler lines. Installed approx. 5 yards soil then rolled 500 sq ft sod. Next came the spit rail fence. Installed split rail fence to send it to the next level. All this working in nasty sticky clay soil. Job site was cleaned up as if they weren’t there. Thank you Alex and crew. Would definitely hire again."

"Adam and team created an incredible customer experience from the first contact to completion of our project, which included removal of current lawn and the installation of over 10k sq ft of irrigation system and sod. Adam was very knowledgeable, professional, communicative and engaged in a way that gave us a tremendous comfort level. The quality of his work was outstanding , timeline was defined and met without any delays or setbacks. Pricing was very reasonable with no surprises. Adam was always present when he said he would be here and followed through on all his intentions (not an unusual expectation but becoming more and more the exception in today's world). I would highly recommend Adam and look forward to utilizing him again for any future projects."

"I have not used them to install tile because my son-in-law does tile and has done the labor part of it for me, but have purchased all the tile and granite for my main bath and my kitchen from them. They have a gorgeous showroom and the best customer service you could want. They will take the time to help you pick something and help you plan out what you want to do. You can take samples home and pretty much keep them as long as you need to decide! Their prices are great - they currently have a lot of really beautiful porcelain tiles = probably other stuff, as well - on inventory reduction prices. I got 130 sq ft of gorgeous porcelain tile for $277, because it's on sale right now. They are well worth checking out."

"We have two big, young, active dogs who destroyed the backyard our first winter at the residence following the first rain. There was no drainage, and the backyard was transformed into a big mud hole. <br /> Our goal was to eliminate the dirt and mud, but also have an aesthetic backyard we could enjoy. <br /> Tim convinced us in our first consult that we could in fact have a nice backyard with dogs.  His team put in proper drainage with a beautiful stamped concrete patio. They landscaped the surrounding patio with various trees, shrubs and plants with mounded gold rock as the ground cover.  The team also constructed a nice shadow box fence and gate separating our garden area. In the garden, they built  two garden boxes and planted various fruit trees and covered the ground with  bark.  The entire backyard is on a timed drip irrigation system.  The entire project was done in one week while we were on vacation, so we returned to a transformed wonderful backyard.  <br /> However, it was not without its challenges thanks to our canines' youthful exuberance.  I found myself sweeping rocks off the patio twice a day.  Tim recommended we add bigger rock to the small rock.   He personally came out and spread the rock himself free of charge. This helped immensely.   Then about a month later, Tim came over on a Saturday and built a grape arbor in our garden area, again free of charge. <br /> Tim and his team were professional, reliable and they back their work. He truly cares about satisfying his customers.  We would not hesitate referring him or his team for any landscaping needs. <br /> Matt and Regina"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Sacramento, CA

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.
