"We used GTS for removal of 32 trees in our backyard a few months ago on our Bridlewood property. GTS gave the lowest rate for the tree removal, stump grinding, and debris removal than any other tree service in our area. Nick and his team worked extremely hard in the hot weather and did a fantastic job. Also, at the end of every work day his crew cleaned my driveway and street areas to keep debris from tracking into my home. (Thumps up!) Nick and his crew provided AAA+ service. He and his team were professional, honest, friendly, and performed the service(s) they promised on time. We also had Nick and his team come back and remove 6 addnâ l trees that we originally did not know was on our property line. My husband and I are also planning to hire GTS to assist with filling in of our backyard that has abt a 4ft slope on one side. And, Iâ m sure Nick and his team will do a great job with that project as well!"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Sandersville, GA

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.
