"Our project was to refurbish a gravel driveway and construct a new section of gravel driveway through a heavily wooded area. They did an excellent job. Driveway is smoother to drive on than ever before.. I do not hesitate to recommend their service."

"It took a couple of phone calls to get a time set for an on-site estimate but after that, the work happened and finished very quickly. We shook hands on the work and all the materials discussed I'm not sure were used, but I believe it was for the best. The finished work was so good, I could hardly believe it. I wasn't home when the work happened, but he showed up as promised and my neighbor said with a crew of about 10 workers. The finished a project that would have taken me a week or maybe much more in about 5 hours. The came, did a great job, cleaned up and left. I was very satisfied.
The only thing I might have done differently for a big project like mine would have been to draw up a contract with itemized costs. I think I came out a winner, but in this day in age it could have very easily gone the other way. Mr. Huerta is a very hard working and as far as I can tell honest person. He was very polite and professional. I trusted him and it worked out.

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Sweet Home, AR

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.
