Crushed Gravel we deliver in La Feria
Crushed Gravel in La Feria
La Feria gets about 26 inches of precipitation a year. That means drainage and washout planning matter when you lay crushed gravel. Picking the right base and surface size keeps your project stable.
Crushed gravel is the angular, compactable material that locks together under weight. It is not the same as rounded gravel. The sharp edges make it hold its position under vehicles and foot traffic.
Crushed gravel sizes for La Feria projects
For most work, 3/4" crushed gravel is the common choice. It works as a base under drives and as a top layer on well-drained soil. Below are the sizes we deliver by the ton.
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" Crushed Gravel | Fine compacting layer | Used as a final surface for patios and walkways. |
| 3/4" Crushed Gravel | The workhorse size for base and drives | Compacts firmly and handles repeated traffic well. |
| 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | Structural base under heavy loads | Used under concrete slabs and commercial lots. |
| 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | First lift over soft subgrade | Provides a stable platform on weaker ground. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Mud control and deep fill | Improves drainage in wet areas and deep fills. |
Which crushed gravel to use for five common jobs
Each job calls for a different size and depth. The table below matches the project to the best product.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Farm and site access road | 3/4" Crushed Gravel | 4 to 6 inch compacted lift |
| Shed or slab pad | 3/8" Crushed Gravel | 2 to 3 inch compacted layer |
| Soft or muddy subgrade | 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 6 to 8 inch first lift |
| Trench backfill | 2"-3" Crushed Gravel | Fills and drains around utilities |
| Compacted base | 1" - 1 1/2" Crushed Gravel | 3 to 4 inch compacted course |
What La Feria conditions mean for your crushed gravel
La Feria sees only about 2 freezing days a year, so frost heave is not a major concern. That means you do not need an extra-thick base to handle ground movement. The subgrade stays relatively stable.
About 36 days a year bring measurable rain. Plan your delivery for when the ground is firm. Wet soil can shift under the truck and make the base soft. Choose a window with a dry spell.
Soils mapped in the La Feria area are commonly well drained. That works in your favor because less base stone is needed under the surface layer. Standard depth usually does the job. Order once the site is ready, because material sitting in the wrong spot gets moved twice.
How much crushed gravel you need
To figure out the tonnage, measure the length and width of your area and decide on the depth. Our material calculators do the math for you. Enter the dimensions and it returns the tons required.
