"Great job!! They did excellent work, were flexible with my schedule, cleaned up, and went above and beyond (removing and replacing a section of fence to get their equipment into the backyard). The customer service was excellent as well. Would definitely use again and would recommend to friends and family!"

"I needed to trim hackberry what was growing against the back of our home. 1-2 Tree Guys responded to my request to look at the task. They were on site in less than 24 hours, provided me a logical assessment of the work needed and quoted me a price that I thought was fair and equitable for the work done. The team was so careful to proceed slowly and allow me to appraise their work as they proceeded. The net result was exactly what I hoped for, at a fair price and was done in 30 minutes. 100% satisfaction. Would use them again in a heartbeat."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Smithville, TX

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.
