Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Ida, LA

Order gravel and aggregate delivery in Ida, LA by the ton or the yard. Louisiana Rock Supply drops bulk material at your site, and 610 limestone is the base most drives and pads here start from.

Ground in this part of Caddo Parish is sandy loam over clay, so what you put down and how it drains both matter.

Materials for Ida Projects

Start with the base. 610 limestone, also called #610 or 610 base, is crushed limestone with the stone dust left in, from fines up to about two inches.

Those fines bind it, so it hardens as it is rolled. It goes under driveways, parking pads, shed pads and flatwork.

Crushed concrete, also called 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, and it works as a base layer under the same flatwork.

For a driveway surface, Driveway Gravel tops a finished base course. Where you want clean stone that drains, #57 Limestone is about 3/4 inch with no fines, and #67 Stone runs a little finer for drainage trenches and pipe bedding.

Water has to go somewhere. Drain Rock is washed stone with the fines taken out, for French drains, foundation perimeter drains and downspout runs.

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

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

Washed Sand, also called river sand, beds pipe and flatwork. Top Soil is the growing layer for lawns and beds over ground that is more clay than a lawn wants.

Ground and Conditions in Ida

Across the northern and western uplands, the surface is sandy loam over Tertiary sands and clays. The ground rolls rather than sits flat, with sandy loam ridges and clay down in the draws.

The sandy loam takes water in. The clay beneath it does not.

So water moves sideways down the slopes and gathers in the draws, and slope is what moves it here, not a water table.

That shapes two things. Bare sandy slopes cut into gullies quickly once the cover is gone, and the draws scour.

A base course over sandy loam wants the fines in it so it locks up, which is what 610 limestone gives you.

Work runs year round in this part of Louisiana. Wet clay in the draws is what stops a compaction pass, so plan the base work around it.
