Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Chauvin, LA

Louisiana Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Chauvin, LA for two kinds of buyers: contractors building pads and drives, and homeowners fixing a wet yard one load at a time. Both start in the same place, with 610 limestone.

Chauvin sits in Terrebonne Parish, on ground that stays soft and saturated for most of the year.

Materials for Chauvin Projects

Base and driveway surfacing is where most Chauvin work begins, and 610 limestone is the base material this market names. It is crushed limestone with the fines left in, running from stone dust up to about two inches, so it binds and hardens as it is rolled.

That makes it the compacted layer under a driveway, a parking pad, a shed pad or flatwork.

Road Base, sold here as recycled base or 610 concrete, is recycled Portland cement concrete crushed to a dense graded size with the fines kept in. Louisiana permits it as a Class II base course material.

It is not crushed limestone, and it is not a substitute name for one.

For the surface layer, #57 limestone is the clean open graded size at about 3/4 inch with no fines, so water moves through it. It works as a driveway surface and around drainage and concrete work.

#67 stone is a little finer, for drainage trenches and pipe bedding.

Sand and soil fill in the rest of a Chauvin job. Mason sand is the finest washed sand, for mortar, block work and a smooth paver setting bed.

Select fill raises low ground and builds a pad up out of the water, and it compacts rather than settling. River silt is the local name for fine alluvial fill dug from the river bottoms.

Ground and Conditions in Chauvin

Across the deltaic plain, the marsh and the Chenier coast, the water table sits at or near the surface and the ground is already saturated. Water does not drain downward here.

It leaves by pump, by canal, or not at all.

That changes what a base course has to do. A pad built on muck settles under its own weight before anything is parked on it, so the fill layer has to be a material that compacts.

Select fill goes under a base course, not under a lawn.

Drainage is the other half of the problem. Drain Rock is clean washed stone with the fines taken out, for French drains, foundation perimeter drains, drywells and downspout runs.

On ground this wet, the drainage layer is the part that has to work.

Erosion follows the same water. Coastal and wetland loss, storm surge, and canal and bayou bank retreat all pull at the edges of a property.

RipRap is angular stone for bank and shoreline armour and slope protection. Rounded stone does not lock together, so river rock is not bank armour.

Work runs year round here, interrupted by rain and high water rather than by cold.

A dump truck then tips the material on site in one pile.

Have the drop area clear before the truck arrives. Bulk loads need room to tip and a surface that will hold the weight, which on soft ground means the firmest spot you have.
