If you are raising a low spot or building a pad, the question is what to put under it. Louisiana Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in New Llano, LA, and the answer starts with 610 limestone.

This part of Vernon Parish sits on sandy loam ridges with clay in the draws. That mix decides which material goes down first.

Materials for New Llano Projects

Grade raising and pad building come first here, because so much ground in this parish sits low or slopes. Fill goes down before any base course.

Select Fill raises low ground and builds a pad up out of the water. It compacts rather than settling, so it belongs under a base course, not under a lawn.

River silt is the Louisiana name for fine alluvial fill dug from the river bottoms. Yards here list it beside fill dirt and spillway dirt as a grade raising material.

610 Limestone, also called #610 or 610 base, is the compacted layer under driveways, parking pads and flatwork. Stone dust up to about two inches binds it, so it hardens as it is rolled.

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

For a driveway surface, #57 Limestone is the clean open graded size at about 3/4 inch with no fines. It also handles drainage and concrete work.

For a patio or walkway, Stone Screenings bed pavers and pack the top of a path. Mason Sand gives a smooth setting bed under brick and block.

For a drain, Drain Rock is washed clean with the fines taken out. It suits French drains, foundation perimeter drains, drywells and downspout runs.

Ground and Conditions in New Llano

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

The sandy loam takes water, and the clay beneath it does not. Water moves sideways down the slopes and collects in the draws instead of draining straight down.

That is why slope, not a water table, is what moves water here. An under-built base on a slope loses its fines and starts to rut.

Bare sandy slopes gully quickly once the cover is gone, and the draws scour. Riprap armour holds banks and ditch edges where rounded stone cannot.

Work runs year round in this parish. Wet clay in the draws is what stops a compaction pass, so time the base work around it.

Questions About Ordering in New Llano

What is the best base under pavers in New Llano?

Start with 610 limestone as the compacted base, then bed the pavers. Stone Screenings or Mason Sand work as the setting layer on top.

The clay in the draws does not drain, so the base has to carry the load and shed water sideways.
