Sand products for delivery in Maryland

Not every sand works for every job. Mason sand is too fine for concrete work. Washed sand is not ideal for playgrounds because it can compact. Playground sand is not meant for mortar mixes. Choose the right type for your project from the table below.

Choosing sand for your project in Maryland

Different jobs call for different sand. Use this table to match your project to the right product and the typical depth needed.

Maryland weather and soil conditions for sand

Annual rainfall across the cities we deliver to in Maryland runs from 44 to 50 inches. This moisture means sand should be placed on a well-draining base to avoid shifting over time.

Freezing temperatures occur about 64 to 130 days a year across the state, depending on location. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. A thicker initial lift helps anchor the sand against frost heave.

The most common soil hydrologic groups in Maryland are B and C, which have moderate to slow drainage. When installing sand for a base, a deeper base depth helps compensate for the slower percolation. Most of the state sits in the moderate band for ground freezing, so base depth guidance applies statewide.
