"Raul saw cut pavement and concrete, trenched, installed drains, and graded my property to insure proper drainage. Along the way, he offered suggestions and accommodated my last minute changes in plans. He is easy to work with, and I will use his services in the future!"

"Excellent work. He and his helper arrived when he said he would and completed the difficult job promptly and professionally. He went beyond my expectations, clearing about 20 feet on either side of the very long driveway and beyond. The cost was reasonable, and they were very pleasant to work with. Will hire again!"

"We have used Evergreen Landscape Maintenance for 17 years.  They have done an excellent job of keeping our yard looking nice for all that time.  I feel we have the nicest looking yard on the block.  The owner is very knowledgeable about all aspects of yard care.  We appreciate so much that he is always available for needed repairs or problems that spring up suddenly.  They have even planted trees for us.
I can't really make a judgement about their monthly bill because I don't know what other yard service businesses charge.  Evergreen adds an extra fee for repairs, spraying, etc., but we feel those charges are very reasonable.  Their billing procedures, however, are often quite inconsistent.  We're never quite sure when---or if---the bill will arrive.
The work crew is speedy and efficient.  They watch for any problems that need to be addressed.  Sometimes after there has been some bad weather (or maybe a holiday) they don't show up for their weekly service, but that is to be expected.  I think communication could be a little better at times.  We're never quite sure when someone will show up for needed repairs, etc.  It is always handled in a reasonable amount of time, though.  The owner has been known to even show up at night after a long workday to take care of the problem.
All in all, we are very pleased with the service provided to us by Evergreen Landscape Maintenance.  We would recommend them to anyone looking for a good landscape maintenance provider.

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Shingletown, CA

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.
