"I can not recommend this company. Job performance was poor, & not completed as expected. Owner had to be called to return to finish the job, a long drawn out process. The only positive, was a nice sidewalk. Workers did not seem to have respect for my property, when they left part of garden decorations moved & not replaced. Sloopy concrete work. owner Job site was not cleaned up. Workers seem to have little respect for my property. The only positive outcome was a nice sidewalk I had requested."

"Mr Hotchkiss assessed the work needed to remove the branch, and gave me a very reasonable estimate. I immediately accepted. He did an exceptional job of completely removing the branch, and cleaning up all the debris in just one day. He was very pleasant to deal with. I plan to use him for any future tree work."

"I wanted to wait a bit before reviewing to see how the material has held up and it's been fantastic. LT repaired our flood damaged driveway with TxDOT quality gravel base vs. just junk like some fly-by-night firms. We've had heavy rains in the two weeks since and the base has been almost as firm and dense as concrete! The best thing is the fact that Tim and his brother Ray both are excellent communicators- you are never left wondering about anything. They also discuss the project first and then have a professional final scope of work agreement that you don't sign or pay until then. That tells anyone that they have great relationships with their material providers. They were on time, even with challenging conditions. I AM bringing them back to do our concrete driveway once we get some other key work done."

"Franco's Tree Service, workers, did an excellent job. They trimmed a red oak tree and removed a large diseased red oak, down to the stump, as close to the ground as possible, neatly done. They were extremely careful not to damage our rose bushes and/or roof. Their removal and cleanup was very efficient. My husband and I would highly recommend this tree service. We would hire them again, first choice. Bill and Margie"

Steve was the rep who originally came out and gave me the estimate for the job and gave me ideas for the project.  He was great, but the job supervisor didn't understand what he was supposed to do.    He was laying pavers completely different from what I wanted or Steve had instructed.  The workers ate chicken and then threw the chicken bones in the street!  A neighbor couldn't stand the bones just left in the street and picked them up and threw them away!  I found one chicken bone in my front yard along with some rocks they dropped when moving rocks from the back yard. They left some things on the front porch that should have been returned to the back yard where  they were originally.  The pavers installed for the walkway are too high, they are not level with the ground.  I use a rolling walker and I can not roll over the pavers.  They did not install four pavers that were needed to finish the area for the pots and I had to install them myself after they left, which is hard using a rolling walker. I moved the grass to the front yard that was where the four pavers went for the pots.  I  felt I had paid enough to not have to do anything. They did not ask if I was satisfied with the job before they left. They were just in a hurry to leave and they were not friendly at all.

I will not use them again or refer them.

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Universal City, TX

Most shed foundations benefit from a gravel layer four to six inches deep after proper compaction. The exact depth may vary depending on your specific soil conditions, climate, and shed weight. In areas with poor drainage or for heavier structures, contractors might recommend slightly deeper installations. Building the pad in multiple compacted layers rather than a single thick pour helps achieve optimal stability and load distribution.

Gravel pads cost significantly less than concrete foundations. While gravel materials run about $1.25 to $1.80 per square foot, concrete slabs average $6 per square foot. For a standard shed base, this price difference translates to substantial savings. Beyond the initial cost advantage, gravel pads also offer easier installation, simpler modifications if needed, and don't require specialized concrete finishing skills.

For a standard 10-by-12 shed pad, you'll need enough gravel to cover 120 square feet at the recommended depth. At rates of $1.25 to $1.80 per square foot, expect to spend $150 to $216 on gravel materials alone. Remember to factor in extending the pad beyond the shed's dimensions by one to two feet on each side for better drainage and stability, which increases the actual area needed.

The ideal gravel for shed foundations combines stability with proper drainage capabilities. Crusher run ($0.40 per square foot) makes an excellent base layer because it contains various particle sizes that lock together when compacted. For top layers, angular gravel provides better drainage while maintaining stability. Avoid perfectly round decorative stones as they don't compact effectively and may shift under weight, compromising your shed's stability over time.
