"Randy and his crew came in and knocked it out of the park for us! We had a settled gravel driveway that pooled up each time it rained. Randy came in and graded it nicely, installed a new culvert by the road and drain by our garage, and left things looking immaculate. Thanks again for the great service and communication!"

"Fernando and his team with SAFE-FER Landscaping was recommended to us by a local nursery/business. We hired SAFE-FER Landscaping to work on our backyard - adding privacy with palm trees/plants, sod installation, and sprinkler system. Fernando is knowledgeable, a dedicated worker, and friendly. Fernando and his team have always done a great job. We have been very happy with their work, as it has transformed out outdoor living space. We plan to hire them again to help with hedging along the street side of our fencing and to spruce up our front yard. We would definitely recommend them."

"We contracted with them for a 315x10 ft driveway and parking pad. The prices were excellent, very competitive and better than any other estimate we received. It is a family business and you get a very high level of customer service. They originally installed the driveway in January. Due to it being late in the season, there were minor issues. When I called to voice my concerns, the owner came to the house within an hour to follow-up and inspect the issues! When they returned to make the updates, they went above and beyond fixing the issue to provide us with a quality product. I haven't experienced such a high level of customer service and quality work in very long time and I would highly recommend their work."

"Nick and his team from Seabreeze did a spectacular job on a new property that I had recently purchased. The grounds/landscaping at this property had not been maintained for many months which led to a significant amount of overgrowth that needed to be cleared out of the ½ acre backyard. Many, many small trees and a lot of brush covered much of the backyard around the fence-line, which also camouflaged a significant amount of building materials (tiles, bricks, hardware, etc.) that I did not know about. Seabreeze cleared out all of the brush and overgrowth, removed several (a lot) smaller trees, ground-down all stumps, removed most of the building materials/debris, trimmed 4-5 large oak trees, and hauled off everything. Seabreeze also removed the old dilapidated fence that enclosed the ½ acre backyard. This saved me a LOT of money when I had a new fence installed a week later! They also hauled off all of the fence material they removed. After all the work was completed I noticed they had forgotten to take down a small tree that we had previously discussed. I called Nick and he came out within an hour and removed the tree. I couldn’t be more pleased with the service Nick and his company provided! I now have a backyard I can use! I will definitely call upon Seabreeze in the future for any of my ground maintenance issues or projects."

"Dawayne and his folks were up to the challenge; we'd bought a home that's yard was severely neglected.  Dawayne gave us a reasonable estimate (which grew, some, as we continued to request additions).  They ripped out a bunch of overgrown stuff immediately so that we could put in a fence.  They then had to wait a while to finish, and they were super busy at the time. It was really an all-summer project with about 4-5 days, here and there, of intense activity (pulling out or putting in and tree trimming). We had some glitches and misunderstandings along the way but Dawayne kept coming back until we were satisfied; and we are.  We think it looks beautiful now.  Also, we think they were especially good at trimming the existing trees and bushes; you could hardly see the house before and we couldn't believe they were able to save them and make them look decent. They are now our regular lawn service and two different neighbors have stopped to tell us how nice everything looks.

Update 03/14:  After the initial installation, things went downhill.  (I changed my previous A ratings to more accurately reflect the total experience.)  Our sod never thrived.  Dawayne blamed the distributor, then us. He did replace large sections once at no cost. It basically died out again, in many places.  He said we watered too much, then too litle, then blamed all the weeds on the birds (doesn't everyonehave birds?).  We had mutliple unhappy conversations.   Finally we contracted with an outside service for fertilzier, pest control etc. to try to save the lawn and told Dawayne that we only wanted him to mow. He said fine.  Then I sent him the check for another month and he returned it saying that "They no longer served our area."  All in all, I found him difficult to work with.  In retrospect, I think there are better choices."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Saint Petersburg, FL

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.
