"We have a septic system in the lawn so the Agape team had to work with county office for approval. Agape handled the communications and paperwork and finally was able to secure permission to install the system. I appreciate Agape working through the review and approval process which took longer and required more interaction than was anticipated"

"STONE WALL REPAIR in Holly Springs, NC The project went exceptionally well and we are very pleased with the entire process from start to finish. We have a 18” high stone retaining wall in our front yard and after a very short period of time, we noticed that stones were coming loose from the wall and falling onto the dirt. Long story - the original company that built the wall ignored our calls for help/repairs - no surprise there. So the search began. After interviewing several companies, we settled on John Bungert at Stonebridge Yards. And we are incredibly pleased with the results. He immediately identified the problem - there was no footing put in for the stone face. He clearly explained how he would fix the problem and ensure that we wouldn’t have any further issues with the wall. After a day and a half, John and his team had repaired the wall and it looks amazing. You’d never know there had been an issue and his attention to detail was incredible. He and the team were very cautious when digging the trench for the new foundation, ensuring that our lawn was not disturbed. And when laying the new stone, they were meticulous in ensuring that no mortar was visible. We enthusiastically recommend John. He’s exception at stone wall repairs. He told us what he was going to do and he did just that. We couldn’t be happier. Sorry we can’t say the same about the original wall builder! You can reach John at his office: 919-388-5380 or on his mobile at 919-880-7915."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Smithfield, NC

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.
