Gravel and aggregate delivery in Summerfield, LA starts with the ground under the load. Sandy loam on the ridges sheds water fast, and the clay in the draws holds it.

610 limestone, also called 610 base, is the local base material. It packs into a hard, bound layer under drives and pads.

Materials for Summerfield Projects

Raising grade and building a pad come first on a lot that sits low or holds water. Select fill goes down to raise the ground and compact into a firm pad.

It binds under rolling instead of settling later, so it belongs under a base course and 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.

For a driveway, start with 610 Limestone as the compacted base. Stone dust up to about two inches binds it, so it hardens as it is rolled.

Top a finished base with Driveway Gravel for the wearing surface. For a patio or walkway, bed the pavers on Stone Screenings and sweep the joints with #89 Crushed Stone.

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

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

Ground and Conditions in Summerfield

The uplands here are sandy loam over Tertiary sands and clays. The ground rolls rather than lying flat, with sandy loam ridges and clay in the draws.

The sandy loam surface takes water, and the clay beneath it does not. Water moves sideways down the slopes and gathers in the draws.

Slope, not a water table, is what moves water here. A pad built without enough fill sheds water into the wrong place and undermines its own base.

Bare sandy slopes cut into gullies once the cover is gone. Stream and ditch scour works the draws the same way.

Riprap armours banks and channel edges where the flow is concentrated.

Work runs year round in this part of Louisiana. Wet clay in the draws is what stops a compaction pass.

Questions About Gravel and Base in Summerfield

What is the best base under pavers in Summerfield?

610 limestone is the compacted base under paver flatwork. It carries stone dust up to about two inches, and the fines bind it so it hardens as it is rolled.
