Customers say: True professional

"First I would like to say that owner Brent McCallick is one of the Nicest people I have ever met during my 74 years on this earth. I had multiple nice conversations with him, making my experience during my project that much better. Brent's employees were also nice / respectable dudes -- But, more importantly, dependable and Competent. Ran into some difficulty with "installing" the Base for my (future) Car Port --- due to the slope of my property where I needed the install to take place. I was only required to pay for the additional material needed, But Brent didn't charge me extra for the necessary extra labor and machine time.... Much Appreciated on my part. *** In conclusion : I highly recommended doing business with Brent McCallick and his Company. You will not be disappointed if you do."

"GT did a great job on several clearing jobs for us. We had several large urban acreages of drainage that needed clear line of site and improved access for regular maintenance. Brandon was great to work with and priced appropriately. He was professional and executed to our expectations. I will hire him again in the future for similar projects."

"Sure! Here’s a professional and positive review for a tree removal service—you can adjust the tone or add specifics (like company name, location, or type of tree) if you’d like: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Tree Removal Service! We hired this company for tree removal, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. They were professional, punctual, and clearly knew what they were doing. The crew worked quickly and safely, and they took great care to avoid damaging the surrounding property. Clean-up was thorough—by the time they left, you’d never know there was ever a tree there! Their pricing was fair, and communication was excellent throughout the process. Highly recommend for anyone needing reliable tree removal."

"I had Kolton create a walkway, planter bed, and concrete slab for a hot tube. Flagstone walkway had a tricky grade and he made it perfect. My planter bed drains perfect after heavy rains. The concrete slab for my hot tub was perfectly level. Thank you for easing my worries and creating a beautiful area for my family to enjoy. I highly recommend this team."

"I am so pleased with my driveway! Upon initial inspection, Tim told me exactly what was needed to fix the issues with my driveway. He started the project on time and kept me informed of the progress and when to expect completion. Tim and his brother, Ray, are the real deal: professional, honest, responsible, caring and truly want their customer to be satisfied with their work. I feel very fortunate to have found them for my project and will definitely call them for any work that I need in the future."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in San Marcos, 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.
