What kind of gravel do you recommend for my driveway?

We recommend Class A road gravel.
I have an above-ground swimming pool. What can I put under it for a base?

We recommend fine sand.
What kind of material can I use in my dog kennel?

For a larger dog, you can use ¾" washed stone. For smaller dogs, we recommend a smaller stone, like pea stone.
How much topsoil do I need for my lawn?

The first question is – how big is your lawn? Does your city or town have any regulations on the topsoil depth for your property? We suggest the deeper, the better for grass root growth – at least 6 inches.
How much concrete can a mixer hold?

All of our mixers can hold a maximum of 1 ¼ yards (equals 1m). However, you can purchase in ¼ yard increments.
Do I have to book a concrete mixer in advance?

Yes. We recommend it strongly. Phone us and book your appointment. Walk-ins are also welcome.
