"Widened and leveled my driveway, added new gravel and compacted it and added a drainage grate to my garage. Very professional and knowledgeable. Was able to accommodate my schedule. Finished the work in about 8 hours. Very happy with the result."

"I worked with Lisa. She went over and above to help me find exactly what I was looking for. She wasn't pushy or impatient. I will refer all friends and family to go with someone professional like Bertini and Lisa. I had a previous experience with another company and learned the importance of doing your research first."

"I use him for my association stuff. He’s not the lowest price, but he does a great job. You would like the finished product. He did some work for me personally, he has done work for some of the neighbors here in Greenboro where I live; and he also did some work for the home owners association when I was president. He did a good job on that. He does great work, he doesn’t do things cheap. All I know is that anything he does, it’s a good project and people are happy. It is good quality. He happens to live in the development next to me, I know Ben, his brother. He is very responsive. I probably would use them because I know if I asked him to do it, if the price was definitely reasonable; I would be happy with the product. If I was trying to do it cheap then I wouldn’t use them. He doesn’t want to do stuff that looks bad or that looks cheap."

"When I moved into my home the lawn had been neglected for a few years, was brown and overridden with weeds- over the course of a few months the weeds were dead and grass was growing well in previously patchy areas. Also installed my irrigation system and handled some landscape work on time and on budget- I continue to use for ongoing lawncare and would hire for landscaping again. Thanks!"

"We are wanting to finish our basement. We were gathering quotes. He was very thorough. Explained everything. Explained his bid. We were very satisfied with his presentation. It was a free quote. I like that he was thorough and explained everything. He took time to look at what he had and addressed our concerns and needs. The one thing that turned us both off was he is proud of his almost million dollar home, the fact that he can afford that it is going to be a five million dollar home just did not ring true with us. The price was more than we had anticipated but all the quotes that we obtained were more than we had anticipated."

"I was very happy with the service I received. I had a large concrete retaining wall that collapsed entirely in places, and was leaning dangerously in other places. The wall was very long, wrapping around 2 full sides of my garage, and a portion of a 3rd side, and about 5 feet tall in some places, made up of large interlocking concrete blocks. It was an expensive and time-consuming job since the entire wall needed to be torn down and rebuilt completely. Outdoor Concepts came in with the lowest estimate, so I decided to use them and I'm very glad I did. The crew worked non-stop for about 5 days to get the job done. They were always on time, worked very hard, and kept me up to date on the project so there were no surprises. The finished product looks great, i wasn't charged a dime over the estimate, and I know the wall was built right this time. Would definitely recommend these guys and use them again."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Waukee, IA

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.
