Additional DBA - Assured Asphalt Corpo.

"This company is a swindler. The guy that talks to you is super nice, but the product you receive is garbage. I was part of the Kilmer Park road reconstruction project where they were hired to replace the aprons of driveway that were affected by the construction. Unfortunately I took advantage of the "deal" they offered to replace the rest of the driveway for cheaper since they were there, and I really wish I hadn't. From the first couple days after the job, I already noticed water pooling in the driveway, then after the recommended days of not parking on it, our vehicles still left tire imprints where we parked them. A small amount of gas spilled in one spot, and it ate all the way through to the dirt. I thought I was crazy about how fast the driveway was disintegrating, but I hired a professional seal coat company to try and mitigate the destruction, and they agreed it was a terrible job. I tried contacting the company afterwards with my concerns and was never responded to. All in all, never hire this awful company."

"Very poor communication regarding driveway design before installation. Final layout was very poorly designed and NO DRAWING was shown to owner for approval prior to installation. Omann rep claimed their sales rep did show us a drawing and seemed to imply that we were lying. Very odd, small unusable section of driveway was mysteriously added to side of driveway without consultation to owner. Company representative had no explanation. Very difficult to reach and slow response time. Not willing to offer any solution and accepted no responsibility. They are threatening to go to small claims court. Be very aware before signing contract! P.S. Edge of driveway is already cracking - installed Aug. 2018 - and company rep ignored it."

We are a family owned business with 6 fulltime employess, we specialize in restoration, and new concrete and landscape projects throughout the metro.

"Tracer determined a dry creek bed would correct the wet area in our back yard. They completed the work, adding a rock pile in front of the dry creek bed, which was not agreed upon. This solution did not fix the problem. Our back yard is still wet, grass does not grow and it is very unsightly. When we contacted Tracer landscaping they were resistive to listen and correct the problem stating it was not their issue. The representative has abandoned our project, has not returned phone calls and we are seeking a different landscaping company for help to correct. Our back yard is a mess! The french drain was not installed correctly and we struggled to get sod to grow. Again Tracer landscaping stated it was not their problem. I would not recommend this landscaping company for any project."

Gravel or loose fill paving installs, spreads or scrapes FAQs

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.
