"April 2020. I have a very long, steep gravel driveway in Bat Cave. It had poor drainage and gravel was always washing down, creating ruts and erosion on the property. Zack walked the driveway with me, offered options and prices. I decided to have drainage boxes and tubing installed along the driveway as well as having ABC gravel installed the length of the driveway. The driveway was graded and professional fabric was installed to prevent the overwhelming weeds from taking over the soft driveway areas. The crew kept me informed during the project and showed me how the driveway would drain in the future. The job took one full day to complete. The crew was prompt, professional and courteous to me and each other. Zack and his team are A+ and their work is top notch. I am having them back to install rip rap in an old drainage ditch to direct rain water coming down a hillside to an overflow pipe. I am pleased to have this company helping with my property maintenance! It looks incredible!"

"My gravel driveway in Black Mountain, NC had needed repairs for a long time and the situation became much worse after a plumbing company installed a new sewer line under it. I contacted David Gibson about repairing the driveway as he had previously done excellent work in fixing my foundation that was settling. David and his crew arrived when expected and had to excavate and install extra sub base and gravel due to the much deteriorated condition of my driveway. I am very pleased with the work and I highly recommend him for fixing any driveway or foundation problems."

"On the fence about who to use for your next project? Stop searching and use V&V Land Management. You will not be disappointed! I have used them multiple times at different locations for land clearing and landscape design/installation, culvert installation and repairs (of others work), gravel driveway repairs (of others work) and road building. They do not cut corners and will give you an honest assessment of what needs to be done so that it is completed correctly the first time. Most recently, I worked with Zach on a land clearing project and Charlie on landscape design/installation. I could not have been more pleased with the level of professionalism they afforded us and their positive attitudes while adapting to the multitude of changes as the project progressed. You couldn't ask for a better team working hard for you. I recommend V&V without hesitation!"

"Rick was on time for every appointment and did an excellent job. His 40+ years of experience in the Waynesville/Asheville area played a huge role in every plant and landscaping material choice he recommended (some I would have never thought of), and the final product was more than I could have ever imagined. He took into account some of the recommendations that we had, crafted them into a much better design, and talked us out of a few that would not have worked. I recommend Advanced Landscaping for all of your landscape needs. His company will always have follow-on work with us, as we have many more projects planned. Excellent to work with, personable, totally professional, an industry expert, and more. A++"

"Very pleased. I had drainage issues with water pooling at the foundation of my new (1973) home which sits on .68 acre. David recommended a good gutter company (Leaves Out/Etowah) for cleaning and installation of guards prior to beginning drainage work. He explained mice eat through black corrugated drain pipe (which was not buried as it should have been) and recommended narrower white plastic piping properly diverted to street. His crew added soil/mulch and graded it away from the foundation to improve water flow to the street. David showed me where house footings were showing in one area and recommended building up the soil and grading properly. After David's drainage work was completed, I had my crawl space encapsulated. Conservation Pros wanted the drainage work completed prior to beginning work in the crawlspace. I explained what VanWyck did; he was impressed by the level of detail; stating they know what they're doing. Van Wyck also trimmed and limbed up trees, removed dead shrubbery, etc. Everything looks so much nicer now. They seeded and placed straw in areas where new pipe was laid and the grass is coming in nicely. In the fall, David will re-locate several shrubs and small trees for better performance and growth. He'll fill in bare areas with new and appropriate plant material, then add fluffy (composted) soil and mulch over. I plan to use David's services for hardscaping/paver work in the next year or so as I'm impressed by the hardscape photos on his website. He's very knowledgeable and well educated in his craft with a good eye for design. David does things the right way and his horticultural knowledge is solid. Right plant, right place. I had a difficult time finding someone I felt I could trust to give me a good value and do top notch work (I'm new to the area). Very fortunate to have found VanWyck LanDesign. Job well done!"

"Jim Calloway did an absolutely outstanding job paving my driveway. We live quite a ways up a mountain, so the driveway was quite steep and quite long. Jim did a beautiful job grading and preparing the surface. The driveway came out beautifully and we've already received numerous compliments on it: both looks and drive-ability. It really is outstanding work, both aesthetically and structurally. In addition, Mr. Calloway solved some fairly serious erosion issues we were having. I can't recommend this man enough. Note that he's quite popular, because his work is well-known and respected, so he is busy. Please don't pay attention to the reviews of folks that didn't contract with him. He's busy but once we engaged with him (very competitive bid), he was responsive, very helpful in solving our issues, and did a lovely job. He did the work for exactly what we agreed upon, did it exactly when he said he would, and exceeded my expectations in every way. This man has decades of experience and takes great pride in his work, and it shows!"

"We recently had some work done by Matt Smith and his crew. We would be happy to recommend him for any stonework you could want. Mat’s crew of five or six men are a wonder. They are hard-working, obviously very strong, and take great pride in the quality of their work. They will take time to answer any questions you might have, and they are thoughtful, polite, neat and tidy, and know their jobs. The stone patio they made for us is beyond anything we could have hoped for. At the end of the job they did a thorough cleanup and left our place neat and tidy. I might mention that Matt studied with Tomas Lipps, the founder and editor of Stonemasonry Magazine and one of America’s finest stone masons. It’s no wonder that Matt is in demand. My final bit of praise is in regard to the cost: it was quite reasonable— I’m happy to say. I wish we had another job for Stonesmith to take on."

FAQs for gravel or loose fill paving install, spread or scrape projects in Zirconia, NC

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.
