We have a play area and prayer garden in our courtyard which is surrounded by our worship and educational buildings. It has been difficult to grow grass and the courtyard was basically a dirt and muddy mess. Because of the limited access, solutions were difficult. Then our preschool director encountered Site Prep salesman Jay F. at the Farm Show. Jay offered an artificial turf solution and worked with us through several adjustments to develop a proposal and the results are amazing! Installation Foreman Jay E. and Jay F. led a team of skilled workers with impressive work ethic that totally transformed our courtyard in 4 days! They cleared the space, resolved drainage issues and provided the gold standard small stone foundation and then installed a high quality turf product. Jay and Jay and their team were amazingly easy to work with and this project was a very enjoyable experience. I highly recommend Site Prep and feel blessed to have met and worked with this amazing team!Read moreALV UjWXOE2F92RehY84 4DJcnXUaxoCzmuMD58lg62LOEq0IGdIV5U=w80 h80 pNeil AbramsSite Prep downtown gravel slabs at my residence and were super professional, quick and timely.

FAQs

Gravel patios are a great idea for many homeowners as they offer several benefits, such as aesthetic appeal, a low initial cost, excellent drainage, and quick installation. However, whether they’re right for you depends on your specific needs, preferences, and circumstances.

On average, our gravel areas tend to be 4 inches thick, but the exact depth will depend on the project you’re looking to complete. We’ll work with you to ensure that your gravel area is the proper depth for the project you’re planning.

Gravel driveways can be a cost-effective and practical choice, but they can also pose potential risks to your car, such as tire wear and tear, dust and dirt, paint and windshield chips, undercarriage damage, and more. As long as you select the right type of gravel, perform regular maintenance on your driveway, and take other protective measures for your car, gravel shouldn’t be a bad option for your driveway.

Gravel is a great option for your under-deck area. It provides excellent drainage, which is especially important if you have a wooden deck, as it prevents moisture damage and rot. It also can help prevent erosion in areas with poor soil conditions and make it easier to access your under-deck area by creating a level surface.

It is cheaper to add gravel to an area than to pave. Gravel typically costs $1-$3 per sq ft while paving materials cost anywhere from $3-$10 per square foot.
