Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Crossroads, NM

Order gravel and aggregate delivery in Crossroads, NM online, by the ton or by the yard, and New Mexico Rock Supply tips it on your site. Start with base course if you are building a drive or a pad.

Start with soil if you are fixing ground.

Sand ridges and caliche flats cover the Lea County oilfield country. That ground decides what you put down and in what order.

Materials for Crossroads Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most lots here. Fill dirt raises grade and backfills before anything else goes down.

Screened topsoil goes over thin alkaline ground and caliche for lawns, tree wells and beds.

Garden soil fills raised beds and planting areas. That is how most gardeners here get around a caliche layer instead of digging through it.

Then the structural materials. Base course, also called Type I or Type II base course, is the compacted base for driveways, parking pads and slab or shed bases.

It is what New Mexico calls road base.

For a long rural approach, Driveway Gravel surfaces an existing drive or tops a compacted base course. On softer ground, Base Course is the lift that carries the load.

Water has to go somewhere. Drain Rock handles French drains, dry wells, foundation drains and downspout splash runs.

RipRap armors arroyo banks, culvert outlets and slopes against flash flow.

Sand and decorative stone round out a yard. Mason Sand, also called plaster sand, serves block, brick and adobe work, stucco coats and paver joints.

Rio Grande River Rock covers decorative beds, borders and splash aprons under canales.

Ground and Conditions in Crossroads

Across the Pecos Valley and Permian Basin, caliche and gypsum hardpan stop water soaking away. Monsoon and autumn storms run down the draws instead.

Solution sinkholes and shallow karst make local drainage unpredictable.

So drainage gets planned, not assumed. A drainage bed of 3/4 crushed rock or #57 stone gives storm water a place to go before it reaches a foundation.

Rip rap holds the banks where a draw runs hard.

Erosion follows the same water. Arroyo and draw flash flooding, gypsum and caliche gullying, and wind driven sand across the oilfield and ranch country all move ground you paid to place.

Work runs year round here. Summer heat and the July to September storms are the interruptions, not cold.

Freezing nights are common from December into February, but the ground rarely freezes deep.
