Albertson and Son is a father-and-son outfit in Pahrump. Brian has run the gravel pit since 2007; his son Jeremy works it with him. Driveway gravel, gray rock, crushed rock and sand — delivered by the load, and spread off the back of the truck as it drives, so you are not left standing there with a pile and a shovel.

One phone call covers all three. Tell them what you want and roughly how many loads, and the truck brings it and lays it down on the way past. No second contractor, no wheelbarrow weekend.
Albertson and Son do not publish a service menu, so nothing below is a package with a number on it. It is the plain list of the work they and their customers have described. Every photograph on this page is licensed stock and is labelled as such — none of them are their jobs.

The one people ask for most. Type 2 is the road-base grade that packs down and stays put under a tyre, rather than shifting about like loose decorative rock. Customers describe cutting whole driveways with it.

This is the part worth ringing about. Chains across the tailgate let the truck lay the load down as it drives, so the gravel arrives already spread. If you would rather have it in a heap in one spot, say so — they will do that instead.

The same gray rock goes on yards as well as driveways. One long-standing customer lists “rock landscaping” alongside the driveway work they have had done over ten years.

Septic leech fields are one of the three uses they name for their gray rock, along with driveways and landscaping. If you are putting a system in, tell them the spec you have been given.

Sand and crushed rock are part of the offer too. Some of it they buy in from Morales, a local supplier, rather than claiming every last thing comes out of one hole in the ground.

Their Nevada licence is A-12 — Excavating, Grading, Trenching and Surfacing — and two separate reviewers describe grading and drainage work, not just deliveries. One says they “graded and fixed all our drainage issues”.

Four material types, which are the four Albertson and Son have described publicly. Prices are not published anywhere, and this page will not invent them — ring and ask what a load costs to your address.

Road base. Their most popular product, and the one the reviews keep naming.

The one material they use three ways: driveways, leech fields and landscaping.

Some of it sourced locally from Morales rather than dug on site.

Also part of the offer. Tell them what it is for and they will tell you what to order.
About these photographs. All four are licensed stock images of each material type. They are not photographs of Albertson and Son's pit, their yard, or a load they delivered, and they are not a stock list. What is actually in the pit this week is a phone call away.
Brian Albertson moved to Pahrump in the early 1990s and bought the gravel pit in 2007. His son Jeremy — Pahrump Valley High School, class of 2018 — works it with him, and a loader operator comes in part-time when there is enough on. That is the whole company.
You will notice the reviews name Brian personally rather than a company. One customer has used him for “all of my rock, gravel or grading work for the past 10 years”. Another says Jeremy is now “just as good as he is”. In a valley this size, that is roughly how a gravel outfit gets its work.
There is a display yard on South Firebird Circle in Pahrump where the rock can be looked at before it is ordered, and the licensed business address is on West Gally Road.

“On time, reasonable. Brian has delivered at least 15 loads of gravel to my address, highly recommended.”— Gary W., 27 May 2019, verbatim from his real BuildZoom review
There is no adjective on this page that beats a customer counting the deliveries. Repeat work at that scale is the whole review, really: he kept ringing the same number.
The cards with the solid ochre outline marked Real are copied verbatim from Albertson and Son's BuildZoom listing, typos and all. The ones marked Sample were written for this page as placeholders — they are not customer feedback and are not evidence of anything. There is also a sixth, critical review from 2014 on that listing; it is quoted in the section above rather than hidden.
“Brian has done all my gravel work for years. Now his son Jeremy is just as good as he is! He spread the load like I wanted to dump the pile where I wanted it he did a great job! I called one day and got the gravel the next day! I definitely recommend Albertson and sons if you want gravel and you want it spread just with their truck they are amazing!”
Real BuildZoom review“I have used Brian for all of my rock, gravel or grading work for the past 10 years and he is WONDERFUL! Highly recommend him to anyone needing these services.”
Real BuildZoom review“Brian has delivered several loads of type two to my property over the years enough to cut a driveway all the way around my acre as well as other areas, always friendly and always delivers on the day he said and at a reasonable price which is why I always call on him now.”
Real BuildZoom review · his review carries on about a different company, so the quote stops herePlaceholder text, standing in for a review about a driveway top-up. Nobody wrote this. It is here so the row has something in it until there are more real ones.
Sample, not a real review“Brian, brought several loads of type II to our property, graded and fixed all our drainage issues. Price was great, service was excellent and job was completed in the time frame he gave. I recommend Brian for all your dirt work needs.”

Real BuildZoom reviewExample only, about a leech field load. An imaginary customer who does not exist, written so this row is not half empty.
Sample, not a real reviewSample text. If you have hired Albertson and Son, your review would replace one of these — leave it on BuildZoom or Google and it becomes real.
Sample, not a real reviewThe five real reviews were read off Albertson and Son's BuildZoom listing on 9 September 2026 and are quoted word for word, including typos. Sample cards are clearly marked and are not customer testimonials.

The pit and the display yard are both in Pahrump, and Pahrump is where the work is. The reviews all read like local jobs — acre lots, driveways, drainage — which is what a valley this size runs on.
The radar is the geography, not a promise. Albertson and Son have not published a service radius anywhere. What you are looking at is Pahrump in the middle, and eight real places around it at their real bearings and distances, so you can see roughly where you sit. If you are out past Amargosa Valley, Sandy Valley or the California line, ring first and ask rather than assuming.
There is no price list to compare against, so the fastest route is to describe the job. Fill this in and it writes the whole thing into one text message on your own phone — you press send.
