Large River Rock and Bulk Aggregates for Havana, FL

Start with the math. Measure your length, width and depth, then enter them in the calculator to turn them into tons or yards of stone. That number is what you order for gravel and aggregate delivery in Havana, FL. Florida Rock Supply sells by the ton, so a wrong figure costs you either a short load or a pile you cannot use.

Most jobs here start with limerock base. This is North Florida clay hill country, and clay holds water, so the stone under your drive or pad has to move it away.

Materials for Havana Projects

Rain on bare slopes and road cuts washes clayey soil downhill fast. The fix is coarse stone, sized for the job. Work from the biggest rock down.

Coarse stone for banks and slopes

RipRap is the armor. Use it on pond banks, canal edges and culvert outfalls where runoff hits moving water.

Large River Rock does the same work in dry creek beds and heavier decorative beds, where riprap would look too rough.

#4 Crushed Stone goes in trench bottoms and at construction entrances. Railroad Ballast is the hardest grade for track beds and severe drainage.

Mid-size stone for drainage and drives

#57 Limestone is the workhorse for French drains and drainage around foundations. #67 Stone is one size smaller for topping and concrete work. Drain Rock covers downspout runs and patios.

Fine stone and base

Limerock Base is crushed limestone graded down to fines. It compacts hard over sand and carries driveways, parking pads and private roads.

Limestone Screenings bed pavers and flagstone and make a firm path. #8 Crushed Stone and #89 Crushed Stone fill paver joints and tight bedding.

Ground and Conditions in Havana

You can work year round here, but timing matters. Winter fronts bring soaking rain, and summer thunderstorms drop water fast. Clay ground is slow to dry after a heavy rain, so a base course placed wet will not compact.

Sandy or loamy topsoil sits over clayey subsoil, red or orange, on rolling hills. That clayey layer slows water soaking in, so heavy rain runs off slopes and sits on flat ground. On a driveway, that means a crowned surface and a real drainage layer, not just packed dirt.

Hurricane season runs June through November, which is when slope and bank work earns its keep. A bare cut bank will wash. RipRap or Large River Rock on the face stops it before the gully starts.
