When to Use Specific Aggregates
Driveways, Road Approaches, and Farm Lanes
The combination of heavy rainfall in wet seasons and clay-rich soils in parts of San Augustine County makes selecting the right aggregates critical. For long-lasting driveways we recommend layered material systems:
- Base: Road Base or Crushed Concrete
- Surface: Driveway Gravel or Crusher Run
- Drainage: #57 Stone or Drain Rock in culverts and low spots
These combinations help combat rutting and washouts common after heavy storms and spring runoff from the Angelina River basin.
Paths, Patios, and Decorative Areas
For walkways and decorative yards, choose materials that match the aesthetic and functional needs:
- Walkway Gravel for firm, compactable paths
- Pea Gravel for informal patios and play zones
- River Rock for beds, water features, and erosion control
- Decomposed Granite for rustic pathways that blend with East Texas woods
Planting Beds and Soil Work
Garden success in San Augustine County often depends on improving native soils. Use:
- Topsoil to establish lawns and planting beds
- Fill Dirt for grading, leveling, and structural fills
- Washed Sand for soil amendments in areas with heavy clay

Local Soil, Geology, and Climate Considerations
Soil Types and Drainage in San Augustine County
San Augustine County lies within East Texas with predominantly Ultisols and Alfisols—acidic, clay-rich soils common across the Piney Woods. These soils hold moisture and can lead to poor drainage in low-lying areas.
Using angular aggregates like Drain Rock and #57 stone improves subsurface drainage. For surfacing, compactable mixes such as Crusher Run and Road Base form stable layers that resist rutting on clay subgrades.
Climate and Seasonal Considerations
San Augustine County experiences hot, humid summers and mild winters with significant rainfall in spring and fall. Heavy rains can wash out poorly graded driveways and saturate clay soils. Proper aggregate selection and grading are essential to avoid erosion and pooling.
Use coarse drainage layers and adequate crown on drives to shed water toward ditches or French drains lined with #57 Stone and Drain Rock.
