Bulk Aggregates for Patios in Cibolo, TX

If you are planning patio or flatwork in Cibolo, you need gravel and aggregate delivery in Cibolo, TX that shows up on time and speced right. Texas Rock Supply delivers the base and bedding materials that keep a paver patio level through the seasons. The local workhorse is Flex Base, and getting the layer under your pavers right is what stops a patio from settling into a mess.

Materials for Cibolo Patio Projects

The layer under your pavers does the real work. In Cibolo, a patio starts with a compacted base, then a bedding course that gives each paver a flat seat. Choose the wrong material and you get shifting, pooling water, or a surface that rocks underfoot.

Start with Flex Base as your compacted sub-base. This crushed limestone blend locks up tight when compacted, giving you a stable platform that resists the movement of the clay beneath it. For the bedding layer that sits directly under the pavers, use stone screenings. These fine, angular particles screed level and lock the pavers in place without washing out.

For the sand between paver joints, mason sand sweeps into the gaps and holds pavers firm. If you need drainage behind a retaining wall or under a patio edge, #57 limestone moves water quickly and stays put.

Ground and Conditions in Cibolo

Expansive clay across the Blackland Prairie and much of north and central Texas shrinks and swells with the season, which is why base depth and drainage carry the job. When clay gets wet, it swells and pushes up. When it dries, it shrinks and leaves voids. A thin base will crack and settle as the ground moves beneath it.

Heavy downpours, flash flooding, and tropical rainfall on the Gulf Coast add another layer of stress. Water that pools under a patio softens the base and accelerates the damage. A minimum depth of 4 to 6 inches of compacted Flex Base, on top of a proper drainage slope, is what keeps your patio flat through wet and dry cycles.

Work runs year round in most of Texas; wet spells, not cold, are what stop a base job. You do not need to race a frost deadline here. Frost depth is minimal in most of the state, so base failures come from water and clay movement, not freeze and thaw. The practical takeaway is simple: compact in lifts, slope for drainage, and do not skimp on base depth.

Delivery to Cibolo and the Surrounding Area

Ordering bulk material starts with figuring out how much you need. Material is sold by the ton, which is how the truck scales it, and by the cubic yard, which is how you measure the hole you are filling. A 10 by 12 foot patio with 4 inches of base needs roughly 1.5 cubic yards of Flex Base. When in doubt, round up slightly. It is easier to spread a little extra than to stop mid-job for a second delivery.

Texas Rock Supply delivers across Guadalupe County, including Cibolo and the surrounding communities of Schertz, Marion, and Mc Queeney. When your load arrives, make sure the driver can reach the drop point. Bulk delivery needs enough room for a heavy truck to maneuver and dump. We deliver by the truckload, and the material is dumped in a pile on your site for you to spread.

You can order everything online and schedule your delivery around your build. No need to rent a trailer or make multiple trips to a yard. The material comes to you, sized for the job you described.

What gravel is best for a driveway in Cibolo?

For a driveway in Cibolo, Flex Base is the standard choice. It compacts into a dense, hard surface that holds up to vehicle traffic and resists the clay movement underneath. For an existing drive, you can top it with driveway gravel for a cleaner look. Lay the base at least 4 inches deep and compact it in layers for the best result.

How much material will my project need?

Measure your project area in square feet and multiply by the depth in inches, then divide by 324 to get cubic yards. A 10 by 20 foot patio at 4 inches deep comes to about 2.5 cubic yards. For Flex Base, figure roughly 1.4 tons per cubic yard. Our online calculator helps you convert between tons and yards so you order the right amount the first time.
