Gravel and Aggregate Delivery in Elm Grove, LA

Louisiana Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Elm Grove, LA to two kinds of buyers: contractors building drives and pads, and homeowners patching a drive that has gone soft. Most of that work starts with 610 limestone, the base stone this market asks for by name.

Elm Grove sits in Bossier Parish, on ground that is sandy loam over clay. That mix decides what you order and how you place it.

Materials for Elm Grove Projects

A drive or a building pad is only as good as the base under it. In this market that layer is 610 limestone, also called #610 or 610 base, a crushed limestone with the stone dust left in so the fines bind and the material hardens as it is rolled.

It carries driveways, parking pads, shed pads and the compacted layer under flatwork.

If you want a recycled option, crushed concrete works as a dense graded base too. It is recycled Portland cement concrete, not quarry stone, and Louisiana permits it as a Class II base course material.

Many buyers pair a 610 limestone or crushed concrete base with a clean surface stone on top.

Clean stone is the other half of the decision. #57 limestone runs about 3/4 inch with no fines, and it goes on drive surfaces, drainage and concrete work.

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

For the wet spots and slopes that show up around here, coarser and finer sizes each have a job:

• #4 crushed stone, roughly 1 1/2 inch, for heavy drainage, erosion work and ground that stays wet.
• #8 crushed stone, roughly 3/8 inch, for fine drainage and paver bedding.
• Drain rock, a washed stone with the fines taken out, for French drains, drywells and downspout runs.
• Riprap, angular stone for ditch banks and slope protection.

Ground and Conditions in Elm Grove

Water is what drives material choice in the northern and western uplands. The sandy loam surface takes rain in, and the clay beneath it does not, so water moves sideways down the slopes and gathers in the draws.

Slope, not a water table, is what moves water here. That means a drainage layer has to be built to move water along instead of holding it, and clean washed stone such as drain rock is the material for that job.

Bare sandy slopes cut into gullies quickly once the cover is gone, and ditches in the draws scour. Riprap and a coarse clean stone slow that down.

Work runs year round in Bossier Parish, though wet clay in the draws is what stops a compaction pass.
