"Jose returned my call the same day. He was able to stop by to view the required work and provided a very reasonable estimate. Work started the following day. He arrived on time, confirmed the work and started his work. He removed the fence. His wife helped with weeding and clearing the natural areas. He had 8 cu yards of mulch delivered and began spreading that. The weather was unusually hot, but they never slowed down. Jose is a skilled, hard worker. On the second day he began repairs on the irrigation system. He checked the sprinklers in each zone. He move one of the heads and turned off a couple of heads due to the fence removal and new shrubs. He spent time working on two areas where I had drip lines. He adjusted the valves, repaired leaks and replaced hose that had become brittle due to the weather. Very satisfied with the mulch, new shrubs he chose and repairs to the irrigation system. Natural areas look great. Great experience."

"I highly recommend Corona Landscaping!! They landscaped a large hill on our property (which included installing two sets of stairs), created a paved/brick walkway to match a patio already in place, and installed multiple drain lines to direct water on our property away from the driveway when it rains. Miguel and his crew are very professional, listened to our ideas and made wonderful suggestions regarding our projects. The crew worked continuously from beginning to end of the project until it was completed to our satisfaction. Wonderful experience overall, and will be contacting them for landscaping needs in the future!!"

"The job went excellent!  James from the Cleaner Image did an outstanding job pressure washing my home and gutters.  He was on time, very polite and professional and did exactly what he said he'd do.  My home looked fresh and clean!  I would definitely recommend his services to anyone... my next-door neighbors used him as well and also my parents who live about 10 minutes away. <br />"

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Stanley, 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.
