Customers say: Quality work

"We have used Fernando and his wife and crew for several years now on a quarterly basis to remove, trim , and clear out all the underbrush and weeds and ground cover that tends to get out of control here in Florida. I would not and will not use any other service . They are the best that we have ever worked with in our many years of living here in the Dunedin/Palm Harbor area..they are superb landscapers as well, they know the name of the plant and how best they can compliment the current landscaping. They make prudent suggestions and they are polite and knowledgeable about their business. They know that there work and the way the yard looks around the house that it is a direct reflection of their expertise . It has been a real pleasure working with them . I have referred them to many of our friends and neighbors who all have had the same exceptional experience. Without a doubt or recourse We wholeheartedly recommend Fernando and his company Saf Fer… for excellent landscape and general upkeep work on a routine basis"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in South-florida, FL

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.
