The stones were set in sand and should have had a **** that stays flexible between them. Instead the wrong material was installed. It hardened and then cracked and heaved. It was a hazard and a mess. We had a guarantee from Roger Soulliere, the head/owner of this company.He came out and tried...

"A team of 5 came the day after I hired Gray’s to remove an aging magnolia tree and its stump, trim another magnolia, a lilac and a forsythia, and remove overgrown greenery encroaching on my backyard from the park behind my house. It took about an hour and I was quoted $1800 with a $100 discount for cash. This team did not remove the stump and fill in the hole with dirt and sod within 2-3 days as written on the work order. They told me to hold back $200 to be paid upon completion of the work. No one came to complete the stump removal. After a week I texted, emailed and called (left a voice message). No response. I believe they never intended to remove the stump."

The average cost of a gravel driveway is about $1.25 to $2 per square foot, including the cost of materials, equipment, and professional installation. For example, a 16-by-30-foot driveway costs about $1,500. Cost factors include the type of gravel, how thick the gravel is installed, the condition of the landscape, and labor costs. Overall costs will vary depending on where you live and how accessible the job site is.
Because gravel moves, it requires different maintenance than asphalt or concrete. Here are a few maintenance tips for your gravel driveway. Every few years (or as often as needed):
Grade and level your driveway
Rake to fill holes and ruts
Compact any refilled potholes
Remove weeds with herbicide or by hand
Spray it with water to reduce the amount of dust kicked up
Avoid using a snowplow during winter months
A gravel driveway should last for up to 100 years with proper upkeep, which is minimal. Maintaining a gravel driveway includes grading and adding fresh gravel to fill in potholes. Otherwise, a gravel driveway holds up well to all kinds of weather. Plowing in the winter can be challenging and the gravel can develop ruts or potholes that need to be repaired, but the cost and longevity of gravel compared to concrete, asphalt, and pavers makes gravel an economical option, especially for long and/or wide driveways.
A gravel driveway should be at least 4 to 6 inches deep, depending on the soil it’s installed on. Softer soil that doesn’t drain well should have a deeper gravel driveway. Deeper gravel will mean you spend more on materials and labor, but you’ll get a more stable driveway and avoid damage that needs to be filled or graded flat again.
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
Using a gravel pad for a shed foundation instead of concrete can save you money and be easily removed if needed. Here’s what you need to know as you budget for the project.
