"I needed rock removed, hard work by every standard. Gentz was flexible and professional, and did an amazing job of digging out all the rock that had been there for many years. They were careful and conscientious of the surrounding landscape and grass, and their pricing was very reasonable."

"Cesar completed a beautiful reconstruction of our patio paver project that was previously improperly installed by a different contractor in 2018. Cesar carefully evaluated the defects of drainage, lack of foundation base layer and grading that had led to a collapse. Each step of reconstruction was professionally completed, and itemized pricing estimates were clearly communicated and consistent with the final billing statement. I recommend Highland Hardscapes without reservation."

"A.P. put in a new, large concrete patio, sidewalk, under ground plumbing and a number of other things of us at our home and two of our rental properties. As a family- owned & operated business, A.P. is one of the hardest working and most dependable contractors we have worked with during our various construction odysseys.

But more importantly, they treat their crews extremely well (unlike some other contractors we worked with), so they show up as promised, take deep pride in doing great work, and consistently went â over & beyondâ . This is a great team. They deliver what they promise, price their work fairly, and made certain that they understood what we were trying to accomplish up-front and throughout the project. And that the job was 100% finished, to our satisfaction, before they moved on. Bravo A.P. -well done! We unconditionally recommend this team to anyone who needs a crew they can count on. Hoping that we get an opportunity to work together sometime in the future."

"If I could have given them 20 stars, I would have. I began in April looking for a company for this job, and after four recommended companies came out and either never came back or came back with estimates and THEN never called back, and one was three times what we wanted to spend, I got the Easy Seasons recommendation or listing from Home Advisor. Ron was immediately responsive to my query, came out within three days to look at the project, in three or for more days, gave me estimates in three pieces for clarity, returned to our house three times to talk over the details, answer my continuous questions, and schedule. Because of my travel and their backed-up jobs, we settled on a late September date, which by mutual agreement, got pushed back to mid-October. At EVERY POINT, and this is one reason for a 20-star rating, Ron actually CALLED me, communicated any delays or arrangements or whatever. I told him he got gold stars JUST for his excellent communication. When his full crew of five men and all the equipment showed up two weeks ago, they knew what to do, got to work, and kept working all day, 5-1/2 days last week and the same this week. Dylan, the project manager, was competent, communicative, receptive to my questions and suggestions, as well as his own suggestions. We had demo, tilling, bringing in plant material, boulder placement, tons of shredded cedar mulch, laying down drip lines, checking my old sprinkler lines, installing flagstone areas, strip stone at the bottom of our hill, wider strip stone at the top of one large area so I would have a short wall as separation between planting area and lawn, etc. and anything else I asked them to do. Dylan also built a wonderful set of 15 stairs into place is going down my steep berm, and we used landscape timbers for it. It is absolutely beautiful and a great contrast to the mulch, the boulders, and the strip stone. I was being charged by the day, so when I added something small, they did not have to reinvent the estimate wheel. I knew I was and am paying by the day for whatever I needed. As long as it took, but they were no slackers. EVERYTHING was done with care. Clean up every day, really good employees. Can you tell that I cannot say enough good about this company? They will be back in the spring to plant some trees and larger shrubs, and I think I will hire them for big fall and spring shrub trimming, gutter clean out, leaf removal, etc. They are a #1 company!! Thanks for sending them my way."

The depth of decomposed granite depends on the load the surface will support. For a vehicle driveway, install decomposed granite six inches deep. For pedestrian areas, use three inches, and for decorative surfaces, one inch will suffice. Heavier loads require thicker layers to ensure stability, drainage, and longevity, while lighter uses can maintain their appearance with less material.
One cubic yard of decomposed granite covers 54 square feet when laid to a six-inch depth. This conversion is derived by dividing the volume in cubic feet by the depth in feet. The calculation is fundamental for project planning because it converts three-dimensional volume into the two-dimensional area of coverage. Due to potential settling and compaction after installation, pros recommend an extra 15% to ensure the installed layer meets precise design requirements and maintains robust stability over time.
Determining whether a base layer is necessary for decomposed granite installation requires careful assessment of your project needs. A base layer of crushed rock or gravel provides essential support, improved drainage, and enhanced stability. Utilizing a solid base improves the overall structure by absorbing weight, reducing erosion, and extending the life of the surface. Additionally, a properly compacted base layer minimizes shifting and settling, ensuring that the decomposed granite remains evenly distributed and effective over time.
