"Overall it went well. We got a later start due some mechanical problems while picking up supplies. But Bradley worked in the dark to get the job done. It was a long day for him and his helper Mark, and due to the costs he had to incur on his equipment, I know he barely made anything on the job, but the estimate he gave is pretty much what I paid."

"Mr. Lambert was always accessible before the work started and onsite throughout the project. His emplayees seemed competent and efficient. Any questions I had were addressed and as a home owner, I felt confident in the knowledge, service, and workmanship provided by this company. While the price was higher than some bids, the results were worth it."

"Our main Road was repaved. Which put in up higher than our driveway. Every time it rained hard we were getting run off water in and around our house. I call Paving & Resurfacing they not only paved my 2 Driveways but took care of my water problem also. They were in and completed in 1 day.   I have since told a few other people who I have used and they have used them also. Great job, at a good price for services rendered. <br />"

I am a single person LLC. I provide driveway repair, culvert installation, yard drainage solutions, stone and gravel delivery, and many other services. At this time I do this as a supplement to my full time job, so it may take me a little longer to do the job, but it also means I can do it at a lower cost to the customer.

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in South Charleston, WV

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.
