Aggregate & Gravel Supply in Martin County, Texas

Drainage, Footings, and Erosion Control

Martin County’s soils can be clayey in places and prone to slow drainage. Proper aggregates help move water away from foundations and prevent erosion on slopes.

Drainage solutions

• Drain Rock for French drains and footing drains
• #57 Stone for drain line backfill and concrete mixes
• Geotextile fabric recommendations for separation from local soils

Erosion control and riverbeds

For bank stabilization or decorative dry creek beds, River Rock works well. Its rounded stones reduce velocity and slow erosion while providing an attractive finish.

Decorative Aggregates and Walkways

From formal garden beds to low-maintenance paths, decorative aggregates add curb appeal and function in Martin County's landscape.

Walkways and patios

Use Walkway Gravel or Pea Gravel for comfortable walking surfaces. For compacted, firm paths, Decomposed Granite compacts to a stable surface with a natural look.

Decorative beds and rockscapes

• River Rock for dry beds and accents
• Pea Gravel for seating areas and decorative fill
• Decomposed Granite for low-water, native plant landscapes

Soils, Fill, and Sand

Successful planting, grading, and construction in Martin County rely on the right soils and sands. We stock multiple sand types and soil products for local conditions.

Soil and fill

Use Topsoil for gardens and lawns where organic matter is needed. For structural fills and grading, Fill Dirt provides stable mass fill without organic contaminants.

Sands for masonry and play

• Mason Sand for mortar and paver work
• Washed Sand for clean concrete mixes and paver joints
• Playground Sand for safe, clean play surfaces

Recycled & Specialty Aggregates

Recycled materials lower cost and carbon footprint while offering solid structural performance when placed and compacted correctly.

Crushed concrete and alternatives

Crushed Concrete is a durable, economical option for bases and driveways. It compacts well and often outperforms untreated aggregates when compacted and graded.

When to use crusher run and road base

Choose Crusher Run where a compacted, interlocking base is required. For engineered projects and municipal roads, Road Base provides predictable performance.

Project Types Suited to Each Material

Whether you're repairing an oilfield access road, installing a ranch gate, or creating a xeriscape garden, the right aggregate matters.

• Ranch and farm roads — Road Base, Crusher Run, 3/4 inch Crushed Stone
• Driveway resurfacing — Driveway Gravel and 3/4 inch Crushed Stone

Local Conditions and Why They Matter

Martin County sits in West Texas, where the climate is semi-arid with hot summers and modest rainfall. Soils include calcareous loam, pockets of clay, and stony layers that affect compaction and drainage.

Soil and geology notes for Martin County

Local soils often contain limestone fragments, which influences pH and drainage. Aggregates that promote infiltration and reduce surface runoff are ideal for erosion control and foundation protection.

Climate considerations

• Hot summers that dry soils quickly — choose materials that minimize dust and rutting.
• Intense, short storms — good drainage design reduces washouts on roads and slopes.
• Freeze is rare, but temperature swings can affect compacted surfaces over time.
