Material benefits for local projects
- Driveway stability: Use Driveway Gravel over compacted road base for better rut resistance.
- Drainage solutions: Use Drain Rock or #57 Stone around pipes to improve water movement in saturated soils.
- Erosion control: Rounded River Rock for shoreline stabilization and splash zones.
Site Preparation: Soil, Fill, and Topsoil
Terrebonne County’s coastal plain features alluvial deposits, organic-rich silty clays, and a high water table. These soils compress and hold moisture, so correct site prep is essential before placing aggregates.
Topsoil and fill options
- Fill Dirt - for raising low areas, filling utility trenches, and creating building pads
- Topsoil - screened and blended for lawns, planting beds, and erosion control seeding
Best practices
- Assess existing soil with geotechnical or contractor guidance for heavy structures.
- Use compactable Road Base under driveways and access roads.
- Include subsurface drainage with Drain Rock where groundwater is near the surface.
Sands and Bedding Materials
Fine sands support masonry, pavers, and play areas. We carry multiple sand grades to match project needs across the parish.
Sands we deliver
- Mason Sand - for mortar bedding and stonework
- Washed Sand - clean sand for concrete and bedding
- Playground Sand - safety-grade sand for play areas
When to use which sand
Mason sand works best under pavers and in mortar joints. Washed sand is the choice when you need low fines for concrete mixes. Playground sand is screened and free of debris for safe play surfaces.
Specialty Aggregates & Decorative Options
For aesthetic and functional areas, choose materials that match regional styles and maintenance expectations.
