Pea Gravel, Stone and Soil Delivery in Florien, LA

If your question is what to order for gravel and aggregate delivery in Florien, LA, the answer starts with the job. Louisiana Rock Supply sells bulk material by the ton, and 610 limestone is the base most drives and pads here begin with.

The ground around Florien is sandy loam over clay, so water moves sideways down the slopes and gathers in the draws.

Materials for Florien Projects

Washed stone is where a lot of wet ground work starts. It has the fines taken out, so water passes through it instead of sitting in it.

On slopes like these, a drainage layer is the part that has to work.

Drain Rock is the washed stone for French drains, foundation perimeter drains, drywells and downspout runs. It stays open, so water keeps moving instead of backing up.

Above the drainage layer, size decides what the stone does. A coarser clean stone carries more water; a finer one beds pipe and pavers.

• #4 Crushed Stone is a coarse clean stone for heavy drainage, erosion work and stabilising very wet ground.
• #57 Limestone is the clean open graded size, about 3/4 inch with no fines, for driveway surfacing, drainage and concrete work.
• #67 Stone is a little finer than #57, for drainage trenches, pipe bedding and concrete.
• #8 Crushed Stone is a small clean stone for fine drainage and paver bedding.
• #89 Crushed Stone is a fine clean stone for paver joints and thin bedding layers.

For a compacted layer under a drive or a pad, 610 Limestone is the Louisiana base. It runs from stone dust up to about two inches, and the fines bind it so it hardens as it is rolled.

Crushed Concrete does the same job as a recycled base, crushed and screened with the fines left in.

Sand and soil finish the job. Mason Sand is the finest washed sand, for mortar, brick and block work and for a smooth paver setting bed.

Top Soil is the growing layer for lawns and beds over ground that is more often heavy clay than anything a lawn wants.

Each product page has a calculator if you need to size a load. A dump truck then tips the material on site in one pile, so it is worth thinking about where that pile should sit before the truck arrives.

Ground and Conditions in Florien

Work in this part of the state runs year round. What stops a compaction pass is wet clay in the draws, not cold weather, so timing a delivery around a dry stretch matters more than the season.

The uplands here are sandy loam over Tertiary sands and clays, rolling rather than flat. The sandy surface takes water and the clay beneath it does not, so water moves sideways down the slopes and gathers in the draws.

That sideways movement is why drainage stone earns its place. Gully cutting on bare sandy slopes goes quickly once the cover is gone, and ditches in the draws scour.

For a driveway, the base course is what carries the load. A clean stone on top of it sheds water, while the base below stays bound and compacted.
