610 Limestone for Jefferson Parish, LA Projects
Louisiana Rock Supply delivers bulk materials across Jefferson Parish, including Metairie, Gretna and Kenner. 610 Limestone is the usual base for pads, parking areas and road work. Across Louisiana, where a site has high water, gumbo clay or subsidence, build pads upward and use a base that holds its shape while wet.

Materials for Jefferson Parish jobs
Use 610 Limestone, also called #610 or 610 base, for compacted driveway sections, slab pads, parking areas and camp roads. It aligns with DOTD Section 1003 Class II base course. Road Base, also known as recycled base or 610 concrete, is another compactable option for base work.
For a slab pad on gumbo, place 610 Limestone in lifts and compact each lift before adding the next. A base depth of 4 to 8 inches fits many light-duty driveway and pad jobs, while heavier loads call for a project-specific section. Measure length times width times planned depth before using the calculator.
#57 Limestone is clean stone for drainage areas, French drains and culvert outlets. Natural Pea Gravel and river rock are finishing materials for walks, beds and driveway surfaces. Use 610 Limestone or Road Base under roads and camp roads, then compact the base before use.
Ground conditions to check in Jefferson Parish
Check the proposed pile location and the finished grade before material arrives. Across Louisiana, a site with a high water table, gumbo clay or subsidence needs attention to water movement and elevation. Build the pad upward where conditions call for it, rather than cutting deeper into wet ground, and keep surface water moving away from the work area.
Louisiana's statewide frost-depth guide is 6 inches, and local requirements should be confirmed before construction. For a slab, driveway or parking section, verify grade, drainage path, planned thickness and compaction equipment before selecting tons or yards.
Choosing the right material
For a driveway or parking area, use 610 Limestone or Road Base as the compacted base. For a slab pad, use 610 Limestone. For a drain, French drain or culvert outlet, use #57 Limestone. For a patio, use Stone screenings or Mason sand as bedding where the project calls for it. For lawn grading, use Select Fill to build grade before the final lawn material is placed.
