Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Sugartown, LA

Louisiana Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Sugartown, LA, and the bulk of what goes out here is soil and fill for grading and bed prep. When a driveway or a building pad is part of the job, 610 limestone is the base the local yards name.

The ground under this town is coastal prairie terrace, so the material you put on top has to suit what is already there.

Materials for Sugartown Projects

Grading and bed prep start with the growing layer and the fill under it. Top Soil is the growing layer for lawns, beds and grade repair, and it goes down over ground that is more often heavy clay than anything a lawn wants.

Garden Soil is a blended planting soil for raised beds and vegetable gardens. Raised beds matter here, because the natural ground sits wet.

Select Fill raises low ground and builds a pad up out of the water, and it compacts rather than settling.

For the base under a drive, a parking pad or flatwork, 610 Limestone is the Louisiana base size: stone dust up to about two inches, so the fines bind it and it hardens as it is rolled.

Crushed Concrete is recycled Portland cement concrete crushed to a dense graded size with the fines left in, permitted in Louisiana as a Class II base course material.

Clean stone does the drainage and concrete work. #57 Limestone is about 3/4 inch with no fines, and Drain Rock is washed clean for French drains, foundation perimeter drains, drywells and downspout runs.

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

Washed Sand beds pipe and flatwork. River Rock covers beds and borders where nothing has to compact.

Ground and Conditions in Sugartown

Across the southwest coastal prairie terraces, the ground is level Pleistocene terrace with a silt loam surface over a dense clay subsoil. 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, and 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. Clean washed stone with the fines taken out moves water; a fines-bearing base holds it.

Keep the two separate and each does its own job.

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

Work runs year round here, with wet spells rather than cold ones setting the schedule.
