Large River Rock, Stone and Soil Delivery in St. Martinville, LA

Louisiana Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in St. Martinville, LA to your site by the ton.

Start with 610 limestone for a compacted base, or step up to coarse stone where a bank or swale keeps washing out.

Across the Mississippi and Red River alluvial plains, the ground is heavy clay that holds rain. Water has to go somewhere, and the stone you place decides where.

Materials for St. Martinville Projects

Bank cutting and ditch scour are the jobs that call for the biggest stone. Riprap is angular rock that locks together, so it holds a slope or a canal edge instead of rolling.

RipRap armours bayou banks, shoreline and slope faces. Railroad Ballast is the other coarse angular option, for track beds and very wet ground.

Rounded stone does different work. Large River Rock builds dry creek beds and low decorative banks, and it does not lock together, so it is not bank armour.

Move down a size and the drainage layer appears. #4 Crushed Stone handles heavy drainage and erosion work at roughly 1 1/2 inch.

#57 Limestone is the clean open graded size, about 3/4 inch with no fines, for drainage and concrete work. #67 Stone is a little finer, for drainage trenches and pipe bedding.

Drain Rock is washed clean with the fines taken out, for French drains, drywells and downspout runs. On ground with a water table this close to the surface, that clean layer is the part that has to work.

For the compacted layer under flatwork and a driveway, 610 Limestone is the Louisiana base, stone dust up to about two inches. The fines bind it and it hardens as it is rolled.

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

Finer still, Stone Screenings bed pavers and pack a path top. Washed Sand beds pipe and flatwork, and Top Soil rebuilds the growing layer over heavy clay.

Ground and Conditions in St. Martinville

Work runs year round here. Heavy rain and saturated clay, not cold, are what stop a compaction pass.

That shapes your timing. On the Mississippi and Red River alluvial plains, the natural levee ridges are the ground that drains by itself, and the backswamp between them holds rain until it is ditched away.

So plan around the water. A clean open stone like #57 Limestone or Drain Rock moves it, and a fines-bearing base like 610 Limestone goes where you want a hard surface.

Questions About Stone and Delivery in St. Martinville

What stone should I use for drainage in St. Martinville?

Match the stone to the water. Drain Rock is washed clean for French drains, drywells and downspout runs.

What should I have ready when the truck arrives?

A clear spot for the pile. The truck tips the load in one pile, so the ground needs to be reachable and firm enough to take it.
