Driveway & Base Aggregates
Proper base and aggregate selection prevents rutting, improves drainage, and extends pavement life. Our mixes are chosen for Coconino County's seasonal temperature swings and drainage challenges.
Driveways and Heavy Use Areas
For driveways, we recommend layered construction: compacted road base or crusher run as a subbase, a layer of 3/4 inch crushed stone or driveway gravel for structural strength, and a top layer of decorative rock or decomposed granite where desired. These combinations handle freeze and thaw and provide stable surfaces for local conditions.
- Best base: Crusher Run or Road Base for compaction and load distribution
- Structural surface: 3/4 inch Crushed Stone or blended Driveway Gravel
- Decorative top: Decomposed Granite or River Rock where appropriate
Drainage-Friendly Solutions
Sloped lots and seasonal snowmelt near areas like Flagstaff require good drainage. Use drain rock or #57 stone around culverts, under drain tiles, and in French drains to maintain flow and stop erosion.
- #57 Stone and Drain Rock for underground drainage
- Crushed Concrete can be an economical option for structural drainage layers
Decorative Rock, Paths, and Walkways
Decorative aggregates change the look and maintenance of yards while offering practical benefits in arid landscapes. For high-traffic walkways, pea gravel and walkway gravel provide stability and comfort underfoot.
Walkways and Patios
Choose decomposed granite or walkway gravel for compacted, natural-looking paths. Add mason sand as a bedding layer for pavers and flagstones to ensure proper setting and drainage.
- Walkway Gravel for smooth, compacted paths
- Pea Gravel for informal garden paths and seating areas
- Mason Sand as bedding for pavers
Landscape Beds and Xeriscape
Low-water landscapes benefit from decomposed granite and river rock to retain heat and reduce evaporation while allowing infiltration. Use screened topsoil to establish drought-tolerant plantings in high elevation spots.
- Decomposed Granite for rustic, low-maintenance surfaces
- River Rock for accent beds and runoff channels
- Topsoil to support plant establishment in compacted soils
| Gravel Type | Best For | Size | Drainage |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3/4 inch Crushed Stone | Driveways, Base Layer | 3/4 inch | Excellent |
| #57 Stone | French Drains, Concrete Aggregate | 1/2 inch to 1 inch | Excellent |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths, Xeriscape Beds | Fine to 3/8 inch | Good |
| River Rock | Decorative Beds, Channels | Varies | Good |
| Crusher Run | Compacted Base, Parking Areas | Mixed fines and stone | Moderate |
| Washed Sand | Concrete Mix, Bedding | Fine | High |
Sands and Soil Products
Sands and soils play a supporting role in successful projects across Coconino County. From masonry work in Williams to playgrounds near Page, we supply clean sands and screened topsoils tailored for local use.
Sand Types and Uses
- Mason Sand - mortar and paver bedding

Soils for Planting and Grading
Use screened topsoil for flower beds and lawn repair. Fill dirt is available for bulk grading, leveling building pads, and correcting low spots before installing irrigation or turf.
Recycled and Specialty Aggregates
Coconino County projects often use recycled options for cost savings and sustainability. Crushed concrete and road base offer economical, high-performance alternatives for many municipal and residential uses.
Recycled Materials
- Crushed Concrete - recycled base material
- Road Base - engineered recycled or virgin base
Specialty Stone
For retention, drainage, and erosion control, we supply drain rock and larger river rock in multiple sizes. These products are commonly used near washes and steep slopes across the county.
- Drain Rock for French drains and culverts
- River Rock for landscape accents and channels
- #57 Stone (also useful for drainage and structural fill)
Installation Tips for Coconino County Conditions
Local geology and weather influence best practices. High desert sun, winter freezes at elevation, and varying soil types require materials that resist movement and offer good drainage.
Site Preparation
Start with proper grading and compaction. Remove organic top layers where heavy loads will sit, and use fill dirt or crusher run as appropriate to bring areas to grade.
Layering and Compaction
Layered construction with compacted subbase, intermediate base, and a surface layer will outperform a single thick lift. Use a plate compactor or roller to achieve long-term stability, especially on driveways and roads.
Erosion Control and Drainage
On sloped lots and canyon edges, integrate drain rock and diversion swales to move water away from structures. Native soils in some areas are sandy while others are clayey; aggregates help manage runoff and reduce erosion.

Local Soil, Climate, and Construction Considerations
Coconino County spans alpine forests, high desert plateaus, and canyon country. Soil types range from sandy, well-draining soils in lower elevations to loamy or clay-influenced soils near waterways. Seasonal snow and rapid temperature shifts in higher elevations require aggregates that maintain structure through freeze and thaw.
Common local challenges:
- Seasonal freeze-thaw cycles affecting compaction and surface stability
- Runoff and erosion during spring snowmelt and monsoon storms
- Rocky subsoils that require selective excavation and fill
- Water conservation and drought tolerance in landscaping choices
Nearby counties and landscapes, including Yavapai and Navajo lands, share geological features; our local aggregates are selected with these shared conditions in mind.
