#4 Limestone and Bulk Aggregates for Galliano, LA

Looking for gravel and aggregate delivery in Galliano, LA? Louisiana Rock Supply sells bulk stone, sand and soil by the ton, and 610 limestone is the base most pads here start from.

The ground tells you why.

Across the deltaic plain and the marsh, the water table sits at or near the surface. Nothing drains downward, so the drainage layer is the part of the job that has to work.

Materials for Galliano Projects

Water leaves by pump, canal or not at all, so a French drain, a drywell or a downspout run needs clean washed stone with the fines taken out. That is what drain rock is, and it is the material that makes those systems function.

For the coarsest work, #4 Crushed Stone runs about 1 1/2 inch and suits heavy drainage, erosion work and ground that stays wet. Railroad Ballast is the larger open stone for very wet ground and equipment pads.

Step down in size and #57 Limestone gives you the clean 3/4 inch stone used as a driveway surface and around concrete work. #67 Stone is a little finer, and it beds drainage trenches and pipe.

At the fine end, #8 Crushed Stone handles fine drainage, and #89 Crushed Stone and Stone Screenings bed and joint pavers. Washed Sand beds flatwork.

Where a compacted base is the goal, 610 Limestone carries stone dust up to about two inches, so the fines bind it and it hardens as it is rolled.

Crushed Concrete is recycled Portland cement concrete, screened to a dense graded size with the fines left in, and Louisiana permits it as a Class II base course material.

Raising low ground is a separate order. Select Fill compacts rather than settling, so it goes under a base course, not under a lawn.

River silt is the other grade raising material yards here list beside fill dirt and spillway dirt.

For planting, Top Soil is the growing layer over ground that is heavy clay more often than not. Garden Soil is blended for raised beds, which matter where the natural ground sits wet.

Shredded Mulch dresses beds, tree rings and slopes.

Delivery to Galliano and the Surrounding Area

Louisiana Rock Supply covers Galliano and the rest of Lafourche Parish, including Thibodaux, Raceland, Larose, Cut Off and Lockport. You order online and choose your quantity by the ton or by the yard.

Each product page has a calculator if you want to size the load before you commit. At checkout you pick your delivery date, and a dump truck tips the material on your site.

For a soft site, plan the delivery around your own prep. The truck tips the load in one pile and the driver does not place or spread it, so the pile lands where the truck can stand.

Ground and Conditions in Galliano

The soil across this stretch of the coast is organic muck and soft clay, under consolidated and highly compressible. The firm ground is on natural levee ridges and old distributary channels, and the cheniers further west.

A pad built on muck settles under its own weight before anything is parked on it. Select Fill placed before a base course is how a pad gets built up out of the water rather than sinking into it.

Erosion here comes from coastal and wetland loss, storm surge, and canal and bayou banks retreating under wave action. Riprap is the angular stone for bank and shoreline armour and slope protection.

Rounded stone does not lock together, so large river rock is for dry creek beds and decorative edging, not bank armour.

Work runs year round and is interrupted by rain and high water rather than by cold. Time a delivery around that, and keep the drainage layer in the plan from the start.
