"To be as fair as possible, it went relatively well at first until it came time for the finishing touches: I went with this company after getting 6 estimates because they were the only ones who wanted to correct the root cause of my water issue instead of just paving over it like most others. I paid a bit extra for this, which I was glad to do if it corrected the problem for good - $9,000 total for both the concrete and asphalt work. They showed up on time each day and showed up on the days they said they'd be there. Demo and initial grading went pretty smoothly. Although they didn't bring a jackhammer to break up the concrete, so I came out to assist and used my own diamond blade saw, sledge hammer and pry bar to save them some time. The not so good - Concrete: I paid extra for what I was told were "top guys" who were going to do the concrete work. It was a small 10'x7' pad, so a pretty easy job for experienced concrete workers. The problem is, I didn't get a top guy; he was unable to make it, so he sent an amateur in his place. This kid didn't bring the correct tools with him to make a simple straight expansion joint. When I asked for it to be created, he created it crooked and then left the job site. I had to have him called back to attempt to straighten it, as the concrete was already drying. I tried to communicate what I wanted, but he barely spoke English; I'm not sure he was even legal, but that's besides the point. It looks passable and the water drains in the right direction, but certainly not "top guy" quality work -- more like that of an apprentice. I was very disappointed and felt a bit deceived. Asphalt: Now this is where I expected them to shine, as I have a simple 500 sqft rectangle driveway. The water problem seems corrected, as they brought in 2" stones and extra base for the bad area. Prior to laying the asphalt, they spread a bit more base to strengthen the driveway. The not so good: Instead of a nice smooth surface, I have little ridges up and down my driveway created by the edges of the steam roller. When the sun hits the driveway, it looks utterly terrible. This should be easily corrected with a torch and roller. Second, the grading was not done well near the end of the driveway and I have a noticeable high area to which several neighbors have come up to me and made comments to the affect of "I didn't think a new driveway would look so wavy," and "why is there a big mound there?" Now every time I look at my driveway, I curse myself for paying so much money for this job. If I could post photos here, I would. I contacted Randy about this, but he will not give me a time when he can come by to look at it. He did not show or call on the day he stated he would. I have a feeling that since the final check has cleared, no one will be coming by since there is no financial incentive to. I hope I'm wrong. Where I come from, you do the job right so you don't have to come back. And if you do have to come back, you show up when you say you will, guarantee your work and make it right. Therefore, I cannot recommend this company and nor would I hire again. I believe it's situations like these for which Angie's list was created. I was a bit long-winded, but am trying to paint the proper picture for future readers to make an informed decision."

"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."

"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."

"Overall, I am very pleased with the work that DC Lawn Service provided.  They were punctual and upfront about the amount and cost of mulch that I would need. They covered the beds adequately.   I have a large yard with large flowerbeds.  They left the work areas clean and I was impressed with that.  The only thing that I will ask them to do next time is to lay down some weed killer pellets before they install the new mulch.  Perhaps that will slow the regrowth of the weeds which was almost instantaneous after the mulch was installed.

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

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.
