Decomposed Granite

Decomposed granite and crushed granite are compacted to create natural and beautiful surfaces such as walking trails and for other landscaping applications. It comes in a variety of colors, from tan, beige, and gold, to grey, brown, blue, green, and white. Decomposed granite is harder than marble which allows it to be firmly compacted for patios, driveways, pathways, and landscapes.

Decorative Gravel

If conservation of water is a concern with your landscaping needs, decorative rock or gravel is an excellent ground cover alternative to grass or other landscaping plants. Besides saving water, decorative gravel is also attractive as it comes in various shades. From dark red, medium red, and warm pink to cool blue, deep black, and white. In many residential landscaping applications, 3/8 inch screened rock is best.

Fill Dirt And Sand

Road Grading

Screened Fill Dirt

Art Barber Excavating Road Grading

We also offer road grading and driveway grading services. We have the ability to create a new road for entering your property, widen, and grade an existing roadway or driveway, and even repair roads that have become damaged by extensive use. So, whether you need a new gravel driveway or you simply need to repair an existing road, call us.

Art Barber Excavating Screened Fill Dirt

Fill dirt is used to fill in holes or to change the elevation of an area. It is more stable than topsoil as it will not settle over time. Screened fill dirt is more uniform as large rocks, clay, and other materials are removed in the screening process. To prevent settling and create a strong foundation for any project we suggest you choose screened fill dirt.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you help with both the rock delivery and the prep work?2026-04-22T16:36:28+00:00

Yes — that’s one of the advantages of working with us. Beyond delivering landscaping rock, we offer excavation, grading, and site prep services. So if your yard needs to be leveled, old grass removed, or a base layer compacted before the rock goes down, we can handle that too. One call, one company, one less thing to coordinate.

Do I need landscape fabric under my decorative rock?2026-04-22T16:36:05+00:00

For most residential landscaping beds in Surprise, we recommend laying fabric underneath your rock. It blocks sunlight from reaching weed seeds below the surface and helps keep your rock looking clean longer. For compacted surfaces like decomposed granite driveways or pathways, fabric is often skipped in favor of proper compaction. We’ll advise you on the best approach for each area of your project.

Can you match the rock color to my home’s exterior or HOA requirements?2026-04-22T16:35:44+00:00

Yes, and it’s one of the things we do best. We carry a wide range of desert-tone colors — from Sedona Red and Desert Sunset to Santa Fe Beige and Sierra Verde — that work well with the stucco and stone finishes common in Surprise neighborhoods. If your HOA has specific guidelines, share them with us and we’ll point you to the best match in our inventory.

What’s the minimum order size for delivery to Surprise?2026-04-22T16:35:22+00:00

We deliver by the ton, and most residential projects in Surprise require anywhere from 2 to 10 tons depending on the size of the area. Give us your square footage and we’ll tell you exactly what you need. Call us at 928-415-8001 and we’ll make sure the trip is worth it for both of us.

How far do you deliver from Wickenburg to Surprise?2026-04-22T16:34:16+00:00

Surprise is about 45 miles from our yard in Wickenburg, and we make regular deliveries out that way. Distance is not a barrier — just give us a call and we’ll get you on the schedule. We serve Surprise and the surrounding West Valley communities routinely.
