Cadiz gets about 42 inches of precipitation a year, which makes drainage planning important for any stone project. The right base layer keeps the surface stable through rainy seasons.

Crushed Stone Sizes Available in Cadiz

Not every crushed stone product suits every job. Using the wrong size can lead to poor compaction, drainage problems, or a shifting surface. The table below matches each size to its best use and a caution about where it falls short.

ProductBest ForNote
3/8" Crushed StonePaver setting bed and tight fillToo fine for a base layer; it lacks the load-bearing strength needed under driveways.
3/4" Crushed StoneAll-purpose size for base and drainageAvoid using it as a surface for walkways if you want a smooth, stable step.
1"-1 1/2" Crushed StoneHeavy base and erosion controlNot suitable for a final surface; the large gaps make it hard to walk on.
2"-3" Crushed StoneRip rap style edging and deep fillDoes not compact well, so it is not a good choice for a level driveway.
#57 Crushed StoneConcrete aggregate, French drains, driveway baseNot ideal for a decorative top layer because the tan gray color varies by quarry.
#67 StoneConcrete mix and drainage backfillToo angular for a play area surface; consider a finer gravel instead.
#8 StonePaver joints and pipe beddingNot a base material; use it only as a top dressing or fill between larger stone.
#10 Rock ScreeningsLeveling course under paversDoes not drain well, so avoid using it in wet areas or under permeable pavers.

Which Crushed Stone for Your Project in Cadiz

The right material depends on what you are building. The table below pairs common projects with the crushed stone size that works best and a note on depth or application.

Local Conditions That Affect Your Crushed Stone Project

Ground around Cadiz is in hydrologic group D, which means it takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. That makes drainage and a deeper base more critical here than in areas with faster-draining soil. The soils mapped in the Cadiz area are commonly moderately well drained, but the slow intake still causes runoff.

About 42 inches of rain and 17 inches of snow fall each year. Runoff from rain can wash out a shallow stone layer if the base is not deep enough. Snow adds weight and plowing can scrape a loose surface, so a well-compacted top layer matters. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.

With about 111 days a year below freezing, the ground moves as it freezes and thaws. That shifting can heave a thin base. Building a deeper crushed stone layer from the start reduces the risk of uneven settling after winter.

How Much Crushed Stone You Need

Tonnage depends on the project area, the depth of the stone, and the type of crushed stone you choose. The best way to find the right amount is to use Gravel Monkey's crushed stone calculator. Enter your dimensions and the calculator shows you the estimated tons for the size you selected.

Other Materials That Pair with Crushed Stone

Crushed stone works well with other bulk materials. The list below shows materials that often go under, over, or alongside it.

  • Crushed Gravel, Use crushed gravel as a surface layer over a crushed stone base for a more finished look.
  • Driveway Gravel, Driveway gravel is often a blend that sits well on top of a crushed stone base.
  • Crushed Concrete, Crushed concrete can substitute for crushed stone in some base applications but has different compaction characteristics.
  • Walkway Gravel, Walkway gravel is a finer, more polished surface that goes well over a compacted crushed stone sub-base.
  • Topsoil, Order topsoil to cover areas adjacent to your stone project for planting or finished grading.
  • Gravel & Rock, Browse the full gravel and rock selection for other decorative or functional options.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time of year to order crushed stone in Cadiz?

The best time is typically from spring through fall when the ground is not frozen. Cadiz averages about 111 freezing days a year, so winter orders can face frozen ground that makes spreading and compaction harder. Spring and fall also have fewer heavy rain days, which helps with drainage during installation.

Does the soil around Cadiz change how much crushed stone I need?

Yes, because the soil around Cadiz (hydrologic group D) takes water in very slowly, most rain runs off the surface. That means you often need a deeper base of crushed stone to handle the runoff and prevent washout compared to faster-draining soils. The exact amount depends on your project and the stone size you choose.

Is there a discount on a first order?

Yes, first-time customers can use the code FIRSTTIMER50 at checkout to get $50 off their first order. The code applies to the initial order only. There is no limit to how much you save beyond that discount.

Do I need to be home when the truck arrives?

Yes, you or someone you nominate must be present during the delivery window. If no one is there to accept the load, a missed delivery or redelivery fee may apply, and the order is not refunded. Gravel Monkey sends a confirmation email before delivery, and you approve the time before the truck rolls.
