Bulk Aggregates near Los Altos, CA, 94023

Material Selection by Project Type

• Driveways: Use a compactable base material like crushed stone 3/4" with fines. It locks together under weight and resists rutting.
• Drainage: Choose Crushed Stone or Natural Pea Gravel without fines. These allow water to flow freely and prevent clogging.
• Patios and walkways: Start with a compacted crushed stone base, then top with Stone Screenings or Natural Pea Gravel for the surface.
• Landscape beds and soil work: Apply river rock or Natural Pea Gravel for decorative cover, and use top soil to build healthy planting areas.

Local Conditions That Affect Material Choice

ZIP 94023 in Los Altos includes older built-up neighborhoods with smaller lots and some newer subdivisions with more space.

Many properties have clay-rich soil that drains slowly. This makes drainage material like Natural Pea Gravel or Crushed Stone important for patios and foundations.

The area sees mild winters and dry summers. Freeze-thaw cycles are rare, so base materials do not need extreme frost protection. Focus on compaction and water movement instead.
