Why our aggregates work in Orange County
Orange County soils are dominated by sandy subsoils and shallow limestone pockets. Our aggregates are selected for compatibility with those local soil types and the area's high water table. Properly placed stone and sand reduce erosion, improve drainage, and protect pavements during heavy summer storms.

Aggregate and soil selection advice
For a typical Orlando-area driveway over sandy soil, we recommend a compacted subgrade, 3/4 inch crushed stone base, and a top layer of driveway gravel. For drainage issues near lakes, use drain rock and river rock to move water away from structures and slow erosion.
How to Use Aggregates for Common Orange County Projects
Driveways and parking pads
Best practice is to remove unsuitable surface material, install a compacted fill if necessary, add road base or crusher run for stability, then install a wearing layer of 3/4 inch crushed stone or driveway gravel. This combination resists washouts and rutting during heavy rains.
Walkways and patios
Use walkway gravel or decomposed granite on a compacted base for comfortable, permeable paths. Pea gravel is ideal for informal walkways where water must infiltrate quickly.
Drainage and erosion control
Drain rock and #57 stone work well in French drains and around downspouts. River rock provides decorative erosion control for shoreline edges and swales.
Play areas and recreational surfaces
Playground sand is washed and safe for play surfaces. Use appropriate depth and edging to keep sand contained and drain properly in rainy months.
Landscape beds and decorative features
River rock and pea gravel provide low-maintenance mulch alternatives around plantings. Decomposed granite gives a natural look for pathways while limiting weed germination.
Comparison: Common Gravel Types for Orange County
| Gravel Type | Best For | Size | Drainage |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3/4 inch Crushed Stone | Driveways, base layers | 3/4 inch | Excellent |
| #57 Stone | Concrete aggregate, drainage | 1/2" - 1" | Very good |
| Pea Gravel | Walkways, patios | 3/8 inch | Good |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths, desert style yards | Fine to small granules | Moderate |
| Drain Rock | French drains, subsurface | 1/2" - 2" | Excellent |
Choosing the right gravel
Select materials based on load, drainage needs, and appearance. For heavy equipment access or commercial lots, prioritize road base and crusher run. For garden beds and visual appeal, pea gravel or river rock may be the best fit.

Local Conditions: Soil, Climate, and Site Considerations
Orange County features sandy, well-draining soils with pockets of marl and limestone near the surface. The climate is humid subtropical with frequent summer showers and occasional heavy storms. These conditions make proper aggregate selection and drainage design essential.
Soil and geology
Most yards in Orange County sit on sandy subsoil with good permeability. However, coastal plain deposits and karst-influenced limestone can create localized areas with different drainage characteristics. Aggregates like drain rock, #57 stone, and crushed concrete perform well when layered correctly over sandy soils.
Climate and performance
High summer heat and seasonal rain can cause settling and erosion if the wrong material is used. Materials that lock together, such as crusher run and road base, resist washouts, while river rock and pea gravel allow rapid drainage and are ideal for low-maintenance beds.
Nearby counties and regional context
We also coordinate deliveries to bordering counties when projects span multiple jurisdictions. Nearby counties include Seminole, Osceola, and Lake, and we tailor our aggregates to match cross-county soil transitions.
Choosing Materials for Your Project
Questions to answer before ordering
