"Steve Key and his son Zach did an awesome job on our patio. They tore out the fence surrounding an enclosed patio and replaced the tiles with beautiful designer stones and open the entire area up to the back yard. What impressed me most was the prep work to make sure that there would be no "frost heaves" common in New England. <br /> It should also be noted that they worked closely with another contractor that built a pergola on the patio that Key Landscaping created. All contractors worked together as a team and the project went without a hitch! I only wish that Angies List would allow me to display a before/after photo because the results are nothing short of amazing! <br /> After all the work was completed I refinanced the house and had it appraised. The bank appraiser raved about our patio. She said she has not seen anything like it before and commented that it was like adding an additional room to our house. She said it positively affected the value of our house. <br /> I would definitely recommend Key Landscaping for patios or other jobs that requires detailed work. They did a great job!!! <br />"

"Ultimately they they were not equipped to deliver a small quantity (6 pal) to our home cest effectively (they would have had to send a large trailer) so we did not use them. They were responsive though and friendly on the phone. Also suggested possible alternatives. Recommend."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Stowe, VT

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.
