"Quick estimate and fast work. Was very professional from start to finish. High quality work at an affordable price. Highly recommend Philip. This was a mess I dealt with for years and had contacted numerous folks for help. People don't show up, get overwhelmed and don't call back with an estimate or try to rip off a single female. Philip was amazing and I'm so thankful to have found him. Update: Most of the work was done as per the contract minus a few little things that I questioned but decided to let go....such as the top of the retaining wall having a thick layer of dirt so plant things....and it was mulched instead. The mulch was thin and a few inches of digging you run into the concrete blocks and aren't able to plant much at all. I've had about half of the plants die that we tried to plant. I began having issues with the work soon thereafter it was completed. Water was still a major issue and his solutions did not work. I contacted him several times asking for repairs to be made on pipes that are coming out of the ground that were supposed to be buried. He has made two unannounced trips to my house which has a locked privacy fence so he couldn't properly evaluate or fix anything. He tried to get the Metro Parks to fix some issues he found which I had previous stated the Parks were not willing to fix and knew about. I thanked him for visiting but asked for help from HIM on his part. He stated that he was still thinking about how to fix the problem. It's been over a year and nothing has been fixed. He has never scheduled a time to come look at the yard or do work. I continue to have a messy muddy backyard. He has a two year warranty on his work but it's not being held up. He made a few emails and phone calls to apologize. I asked him to please give me some money back if he didn't know how to fix this like he thought he could and he has not replied. I think over a year is unreasonable and I have been more than patient. Some of the work is still fine, the gutters and drain spouts are good. The retaining wall itself is well made. The beginning to the end of the project was fine. It's just getting him to do the work on the 2 year warranty for things that aren't working or are coming apart. I believe he may have more than he can handle or perhaps doesn't know how to fix it but isn't willing to give any money back to find someone to fix it."

"Kim at Nelson Masonry was incredibly responsive from the first time he came out to assess the situation (we had a leaky front porch that was "repaired" five years ago by what turned out to be an incompetent provider) through his laying out of the plans to the actual demolition and reconstruction of the front porch. He assured us his crew would take care of the problem and that we would be all set to weather (ha ha) the future. When they removed the top bricks and saw what had been put underneath, they reassessed. Ultimately, they put in a layer of concrete to create a positive slope away from the house, sealed it with liquid rubber, and then installed the bricks and mortar. Finished look was clean, and now the water should stay on top and run away from the house. Kim responded to email and texts with lightening speed. When I asked if they could look at another small crack in mortar on a different part of the house he had his guys match the grout and do a "tuck point" fix. In short, highly recommend this company. Their number one goal seemed to be to take care of us and leave us with a porch that would not cause us any more problems."

"VERY SATISFIED with Superior Buildings and Concrete. We originally contacted them about their line of steel buildings, but discovered they could also do the site prep and concrete work. This is a tremendous advantage in a project of this size. You have one contact for questions, planning, scheduling, excavating, and construction. We quickly came to appreciate Bryan's straightforward approach as he walked us through the initial design questions. He listened as we described what we wanted the building to do and then presented options to help us refine that vision. He noticed we planned to have animals in the two extensions and suggested pouring concrete in three sections, a flat one for the core building, and two sloping pads for the leanto sections - to help with cleaning and drainage. During the initial site survey, he made a suggestion to move the building back 50 feet because the terrain was better there and that preserved an open area at the front of the building. He also told us what was needed as we applied for Building permits in our county. After several meetings, the general plan for the building and the site had been firmed up, we breezed through getting a permit, and we we put ourselves on Bryan's schedule for Phase 1 - Site prep. Bryan is a busy fellow (a good thing as I see it - it means folks find his services reasonable and good quality). March weather in Georgia is unpredictable, so the general estimate was for site work to begin within 3 weeks. Weather was good and our slot even sooner. Some large (18" diameter) trees needed to be removed (stumps and all). Bryan has a 953 Caterpillar which made quick work of the task and left us with a pile of logs for firewood. Within a few days the site was ready for Phase 2 - Concrete work, and we were put on the schedule for that VERY weather dependent phase (our building was on heavy soil, needs three dry days to be ready). We also finalized the building and sent in the order, color selection, specifying how many doors and windows, length, width, and sidewall height, special cut openings. Bryan again was an intelligent listener, suggesting options, noting costs, and making occasional suggestions - the heavy duty rafter supports make a much stronger building and were worth the extra cost. The weather continued to be good, and we had lovely weather for forms for the first pad, county inspection, and pour. We couldn't believe our luck when the good weather continued and the second set of forms, inspection, and pour followed immediately. The site has rock on one side and digging the trench for footings was a challenge. Bryan has an excavator for handling rocky soil, but did not bring it because the initial work could be done with shovels. Folks who are interested in details of concrete work can check on the Superior website, Bryan has some educational sections describing concrete slabs and building sites. In later chats, Bryan said we had nearly perfect weather for pouring and curing concrete. So, now we had a level site with a concrete slab and the building was ordered. Our heads were spinning - it was only a month after we started. Bryan suggested we put sealer on the concrete after it dried a bit (makes for MUCH easier cleaning). We had some last minute updates for the building, and were able to get them to the factory without hassles. We were ahead of the busy season and the Factory called asking if we would take delivery of the building - just a bit over seven days after the last pad was poured! Yikes! The crew delayed start by a day because the heavy rains we received, and the site was greasy - we put pallets out to keep from sinking ankle deep in the mud. Even with these unfavorable conditions, the crew of three put up the building in two and a half days! The finished building looked awesome, construction completed at the end of April. May was rainy patches, it took over two weeks before we had enough dry days for the final site work to be completed, but still less than 2 months from beginning to end. We love our new building, and you can see from the pictures it turned out well. It is a better building, and in a better location than our original plans, and that was thanks to suggestions from Bryan. He worked with us, giving us what we wanted, unless he could suggest something better. He was honest and forthright in dealing with us, very busy - but always quick to respond to a text or a call. We know we were fortunate and things came together quickly, but this was a major project for us and we were willing to take the time to do things right. We feel we got a 'Superior Building' and would gladly work with this company again in the future."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Stone Mountain, GA

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.
