3/8" PEA GRAVEL

This aggregate is regularly used for walkways, dog runs, playgrounds, and patios. Pea gravel can also be used for underground projects, such as drainage and pipe bedding and is a good choice when looking for fence post installation aggregate. Because it’s small, pea gravel will move easily if not edged properly. If using pea gravel for a walkway, have concrete blocks or landscape trim set up to keep the gravel in place.

ROCK DUST

Rock dust, also known as rock flour, is a fine, crushed stone material that offers a natural way to enhance soil fertility. Derived from high-quality rock sources, this rock dust is rich in minerals and trace elements that promote healthy plant growth. Its unique composition helps improve soil structure, provides essential nutrients, and boosts microbial activity, making it ideal for gardens, agricultural fields, and landscaping projects. Best used as a soil amendment, rock dust can improve water retention, enhance nutrient uptake, and create a more resilient growing environment for plants.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between base rock and drain rock?

Base rock contains fine particles so it compacts into a hard, stable foundation for patios, driveways and paver bases. Drain rock is washed clean of fines so water flows freely through it, making it right for French drains and behind retaining walls. They do opposite jobs.

Which sand do I use for concrete versus pavers?

Use coarse, washed concrete sand for mixing concrete and as a setting bed under pavers — its angular grains add strength and drainage. Use fine mason sand for mortar joints and a smooth finish. Fill sand is an economical, unwashed sand for backfill and raising grade.

How much base rock do I need for a project?

For patios and walkways, plan on about 4 inches of compacted base; driveways often need 4–6 inches. Calculate cubic yards as area (sq ft) × depth (inches) ÷ 324, and compact in 2–4 inch lifts for a stable result.

What size gravel is best for drainage?

3/4-inch clean (washed) drain rock is the most common all-purpose drainage choice. Use 1–1.5 inch for high-flow French drains and 3/8 inch where a finer fill is needed. Avoid rock with fines, which clogs and stops draining.

Do you deliver aggregates and sand in bulk?

Yes. We sell aggregates and sand by the cubic yard and deliver throughout Placer County. Because a yard of rock or sand can weigh over 2,500 lb, ask our team about delivery rather than overloading a vehicle. Call (916) 783-9177.
