Whether you are looking for gravel, sand, or topsoil for sale, our team can help point you in the right direction. Take a look at some of our frequently asked questions below to learn more!
A. The amount of material needed depends on the square footage of the area to be covered. We measure our material by cubic yards. To determine how many cubic yards of material you will need, multiply the length in feet by the width in feet by the height in inches divided by .27.
One cubic yard of material spread to a depth of 3" covers 108 sq. ft. or an area 10'x10'.
A. One cubic yard of sand will lay 900-1,000 bricks or 175 8" blocks.
A. We have three tractor loaders. We have a loader with a 1/2 cubic yard bucket, a loader with a 1 cubic yard bucket, and a loader with a 3 cubic yard bucket.
A. We will spread the gravel with the bed of the truck as the truck is moving forward, as long as there are no power lines or tree limbs overhead. We do not do any hand spreading. You may need to rake down and smooth out the gravel in your driveway.
A. Bark mulches are not an attractive food source for termites. Termites prefer large pieces of wood typically six inches or larger. Termites can live in wet areas. The best preventive steps to protect your home from termites are to make sure water properly drains away from the foundation and have your home treated annually by a licensed exterminator.
A. Yes, with an approved credit application, we can set up an account for a business that will need to use our services on a monthly basis. Please call Mark Shoaf for quotes and bids for your construction or landscaping jobs.
