Crushed Concrete in Laplace
When your project calls for a strong, compacted base or a budget-friendly surface, crushed concrete handles the job. Many driveway and parking pad builds use 3/4" Crushed Concrete for the main base, and 2"-3" Crushed Concrete for deep fill in soft spots.
Laplace gets about 66 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter from the start.
Crushed Concrete Sizes Available in Laplace
Crushed concrete is a recycled aggregate that compacts well. Finer sizes like 3/8" work as a top dressing, while the standard 3/4" size handles the compacting base. Larger sizes are for deep fill and mud control under heavy traffic.
| Product | Use | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base | Good for many applications where compaction is needed. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Works as a finished surface for pathways. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Standard compacting base size | The go-to for driveways and parking areas. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Handles heavier loads than the 3/4 inch. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Best for filling soft spots. |
Which Crushed Concrete Size for Your Project
For most projects, the choice comes down to how much compaction you need and the surface traffic. The table below matches project types to the right size.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Grade raising under a slab | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Compact in lifts of 4 to 6 inches |
| Driveway base on a budget | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches after compaction |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches on stable subgrade |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 8 to 12 inches for mud control |
| Backfill behind a wall | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Drainage layer, 12 inches minimum |
Crushed Concrete in Laplace's Climate
St. John the Baptist Parish permitted about 62 single-family homes in 2024, many on rural lanes or new lots. For those builds, crushed concrete offers a budget-friendly base that holds up under vehicles.
Laplace gets about 66 inches of precipitation a year and has about 75 days with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That means you need to plan the delivery onto firm ground and account for washout. Soils mapped in the area are commonly somewhat poorly drained, so more base stone may be needed under the surface layer.
The ground around Laplace is in hydrologic group C, which takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. That makes a deeper drainage layer sensible. Without a hard freeze to lift the surface, drainage and washout are what decide how long the material lasts.
Estimating How Much Crushed Concrete You Need
To figure out the tonnage, measure the area in square feet and multiply by the depth in inches, then use our material calculators to get the right number.
