Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Calhoun, LA

Louisiana Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Calhoun, LA, from 610 limestone to garden soil. If you are grading a yard, building up a low spot or bedding a new walkway, the material you need can be ordered online and tipped on site.

Calhoun sits in Ouachita Parish, on ground that is sandy loam over clay. That mix shapes which materials work here, and it is why fill and soil matter as much as stone.

Materials for Calhoun Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most lots here, so soil and fill carry the load. Select Fill raises low ground and builds a pad that compacts instead of settling under a base course.

Top Soil is the growing layer for lawns, beds and grade repair over ground that is heavy clay more often than not.

For raised beds and vegetable gardens, Garden Soil gives you a blended planting mix. Raised beds suit this area because the natural ground sits wet through the draws and low spots.

Under all of that, 610 limestone is the Louisiana base. Stone dust up to about two inches binds it, so it hardens as it is rolled.

It goes under driveways, parking pads, shed pads and flatwork.

For clean stone work, #57 Limestone is the open graded size at about 3/4 inch with no fines. It drains and it is the usual pick around concrete.

#67 Stone runs a little finer for drainage trenches and pipe bedding.

Sand and decorative stone round out an order. Washed Sand beds pipe and flatwork, while Mason Sand is the fine washed grade for mortar and block.

Natural Pea Gravel and River Rock cover paths, dog runs and beds.

Ground and Conditions in Calhoun

Across the northern and western uplands, the surface is sandy loam and the layer beneath it is clay. Rain soaks into the sand and then stops at the clay, so water moves sideways down the slopes and gathers in the draws.

Slope, not a water table, is what moves water here. That makes a clean open stone the right call for drainage in low spots and along a foundation perimeter.

Drain Rock is washed clean with the fines taken out, so it carries water rather than holding it.

Bare sandy slopes cut into gullies quickly once the cover is gone, and ditch scour shows up in the draws. RipRap is angular stone for bank and ditch edges where rounded rock will not hold, since rounded stone does not lock together.

Work runs year round in this part of the state. Wet clay in the draws is what stops a compaction pass, so a base course placed while the ground is soft will not firm up the way you want.
