Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in St. Landry, LA

Louisiana Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in St. Landry, LA.

Work here runs year round, and wet spells set the schedule rather than cold ones.

Ground on this side of the state holds water in the top foot, so what you put down has to shed it. Start with 610 limestone.

Materials for St. Landry Projects

Base and driveway surfacing is where most St. Landry ground work begins.

The base course carries the load, and the surface sheds the rain.

610 Limestone, also called #610 or 610 base, is the Louisiana base size. It runs from stone dust up to about two inches, and the fines bind it so it hardens as it is rolled.

Use 610 limestone for driveways, parking pads, shed and building pads, and the compacted layer under flatwork. Crushed Concrete is a second base option, recycled Portland cement concrete crushed and screened with the fines left in.

Louisiana permits crushed concrete as a Class II base course material. It is not crushed limestone, and the two are different products.

For a driveway surface, #57 Limestone is the clean open graded size at about 3/4 inch with no fines. It drains, so it works over a base that already sheds water.

Driveway Gravel surfaces an existing drive or tops a finished base course. Drain Rock is washed clean with the fines taken out, for French drains, downspout runs and foundation perimeter drains.

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

Top Soil is the growing layer for lawns and beds.

Ground and Conditions in St. Landry

Across the southwest coastal prairie terraces, the ground is level terrace with a silt loam surface over dense clay. A tight claypan often sits close enough to the surface to stop roots and water alike.

Rain gets through the silt loam, reaches the dense subsoil and stops. Water perches in the top foot, and the ground stays soft long after the rain has gone.

On ground this flat there is no fall to carry it off. That is why the drainage layer is the part that has to work, and why 610 limestone earns its place as a base.

Erosion follows the same pattern. Sheet flow crosses bare terrace ground, ditches and coulees scour, and fresh grade rills before anything covers it.

Riprap and large river rock armour banks and slow that flow. Rounded stone does not lock together, so it is not bank armour.

Have the drop area clear before the truck arrives. A bulk load comes off the bed in one pile, so the spot you leave open is the spot the material lands in.
