"I called The Driveway Lady to get a quote and ideas on how to solve a difficult problem with my concrete porch. My home was built in the late 1800s and has a large raised concrete wrap around porch surrounded by beautiful stone walls. Replacement would be prohibitive, but there were some substantial cracks and pitting. It was like walking on an ocean reef, it was so rough, and the repairs made to the cracks wouldn’t hold, but Jean determined that it was otherwise secure with no water penetration below. She suggested they repair the cracks with hydraulic cement and then coat the entire surface with Miracote to seal both the cracks and smooth the surface and protect from future pitting. They worked with me to get the color right when I didn’t like the initial application.  Jean stands by her work and does an outstanding job. The people she has working for her are also courteous, pleasant and easy to work with. I can’t recommend her and her team enough."

"Keystone Paving did an absolute professional job. Mike the owner of Keystone was on-site for the entire job. Whenever I had an email or phone question, Mike replied quickly. Whenever Keystone said they would be on the job, they were. I would use Keystone again whenever I need Paving or sealcoating work. A very positive contractor - homeowner experience."

"They did well. they initially went to my neighbor's backyard and did their yard.  When I pointed out the mistake to the owner, they came back and did our backyard with no problems. I authorized 1 hr crew hour for the work ($125) + 149 from the deal. For total $274, it was a lot less than what I spent in 2014 leaf removal. Good guys and good deal.

"they were perfect in every way. I have hired many contractors since having my house built from scratch and not one company came close. They explained everything, They were exactly on time, went out of the way to relocate the gravel to the carport in the back. I paid them when the job was completed. one company wanted money in advance and never completed the work. He cheated me out of one thousand dollars,"

"Great. John was exactly on time for each job, worked quickly and got everything exactly right. He made a good suggestion for some trim pieces and then, after I bought them, came back to install them for free. Nice."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in West Chester, PA

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.
