Been in the paving business since 2015. We treat you as if you were our neighbor/family. Take a step in faith with us and you won’t regret it 100% trusted and responsible. We do the following 1) asphalt 2) base 3) tar and chip 4) recycled asphalt 5) sealcoating 6) striping 7) concrete installations 8) demolition Any job big or small we do them all.
"Everything was great when they first came out. Thought we wanted asphalt then they mentioned chip and seal would be less expensive and that the rocks or small gravel wouldn’t move as in sealed. This was perfect for our five kids that play sports and to help reduce the mud on our property. Within no time the rocks were moving and it was as if we spent nearly $12,500 for not shifting rocks but could pick them up and throw them rocks, vegetation coming through within 2 weeks, all to be told… no warranty for vegetation, and they could come back and add a seal on top for another $5k. I would suggest staying away. We’ve gotten quotes from other companies to come back and redo it or add asphalt on top. Pictures were taken two weeks after they finished. This was done in October of 2024. The first picture is from two weeks after finished the second is April 2025. 6ish months later and mind you I spray for weeds every 2 weeks and have tried a zillion different methods."

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.
