Selecting the Right Aggregates for Common Projects
From paving a new access road to finishing a xeriscape front yard, selecting the right aggregate helps your project perform in Deschutes County's semi-arid climate. Below are common projects and the materials we recommend.
Driveways and Access Roads
For long-lasting driveways in the Bend area and surrounding neighborhoods, choose materials that compact and shed water properly.
- Base layer: Crusher run or road base for load-bearing capacity
- Surface: 3/4 inch crushed stone or driveway gravel for wear resistance
- Edge drainage: Drain rock to manage runoff and prevent washouts
Walkways, Patios, and Paths
Walkway Gravel and decomposed granite are great for paths that must be permeable and blend with the natural landscape.
- Decomposed Granite for compacted natural paths
- Walkway Gravel or pea gravel for softer, decorative edges
- Mason sand for paver bedding and leveling
Drainage and Erosion Control
Steep slopes around the Cascades foothills and near the Deschutes River need robust drainage solutions. Our drain rock and #57 stone are standard choices for French drains, culverts and footing drains.
| Gravel Type | Best For | Size | Drainage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | Recycled base, driveways | Varies | Good |
| 3/4 inch Crushed Stone | Driveways, base layers | 3/4 inch | Moderate |
| #57 Stone | Drainage, concrete aggregate | 1/2" - 1" | Excellent |
| Pea Gravel | Walkways, play areas | 3/8 inch | Good |
| Decomposed Granite | Paths, xeriscape | Fine to medium | Moderate |
Local Soil, Climate, and Construction Notes for Deschutes County
Deschutes County sits in a high desert zone with volcanic geology. Soils often contain pumice, volcanic ash, and weathered basalt, producing sandy loams with rapid drainage. Summers are hot and dry while winters bring cold temperatures and snow in higher elevations around Mount Bachelor.
Soil and Geology Considerations
Volcanic pumice layers can cause shifting if not properly compacted. We recommend a stable base of crusher run or road base beneath any driveway or heavy-use surface. For garden beds, screened topsoil blended with organic matter helps retain moisture in the porous native soils.
Climate and Weather Impact
Hot dry summers increase evaporation and reduce soil moisture. During winter freeze-thaw cycles, properly compacted aggregates reduce frost heave risk. Using angular crushed stone in base layers reduces movement compared with rounded gravels.
Nearby Counties and Regional Context
We serve the greater Central Oregon region and coordinate deliveries that may cross county lines into Jefferson County and Crook County. Understanding regional trends helps us recommend aggregates that perform well across county roads and rural properties.

Below are real-world applications where our aggregates improve performance and cut long-term maintenance for Deschutes County properties.
Residential Driveway Replacement in Bend
