Gravel Parking Pad Install in West Jordan Without the Concrete Price Tag
An unused side-yard strip became a solid, well-draining parking pad for an extra vehicle — at a fraction of concrete cost.
This West Jordan homeowner had a strip of dirt and weeds beside the driveway that wasn’t doing anything. They needed room for another vehicle but didn’t want to pay for concrete.
A gravel parking pad was the right answer — as long as it was built properly.
We graded the area, laid a weed barrier rated for long-term use, and filled the space wall to wall with gravel sized for stability under vehicle weight.
Those three choices — the grade, the barrier and the rock size — are what separate a pad that stays firm and weed-free from one that ruts and sprouts within a season.
The finished pad holds a vehicle, drains well, looks tidy next to the driveway and cost a fraction of a concrete slab.
