For Yacolt’s wet climate, angular crushed rock (3/4" to 1") is often best because it compacts well and resists rutting. Pea gravel drains well but shifts and can rut on driveways, so it’s better for walkways or decorative areas; using a compactable base and a top layer of crushed 3/8" minus or crusher run gives good stability and drainage in wet soils.

Many contractors around Yacolt do use geotextile (separation) fabric, especially on clay or silty soils and on slopes, because it helps prevent mixing of gravel with native soil and improves drainage. It adds a modest cost but increases longevity and reduces maintenance, so it’s a good idea when soils are soft or you expect heavy traffic.

Common recommendations for Yacolt: driveways—4" compacted base plus 2" topstone (total 6" recommended for heavy use), walkways—3" to 4" compacted, patios—3" to 4" depending on use. As a rule of thumb, one cubic yard (27 cu ft) covers about 324 sq ft at 1" depth and weighs roughly 1.3–1.5 tons; for example, a 1,000 sq ft driveway at 4" depth needs about 12.3 cubic yards or roughly 16–18 tons.

Gravel is usually the lowest upfront cost and flexible in wet climates, but it needs regular maintenance (regrading, adding material) and can rut in heavy rain. Asphalt has higher initial cost and requires periodic sealing and repairs but offers a smooth surface; pavers are the most expensive upfront but give long-term durability and easy spot repairs. Your best choice depends on budget, desired look, drainage needs, and how much maintenance you want to do in West Washington’s rainy seasons.

Labor and equipment costs vary by job size and site conditions; for typical local installs, expect total installed costs (grading, fabric, base, compaction) to often fall in the range of several hundred to a few thousand dollars for small residential driveways. Exact pricing depends on access, slope, soil type, and whether you need additional work like drainage or retaining features—get local quotes through Hello Gravel for precise estimates.

For slopes and erosion control near Yacolt, use larger angular rock (1" to 3" or riprap for steeper channels) combined with geotextile fabric to keep soil in place and allow water to pass. Layering coarse drainage rock below finer topstone and adding swales or catch basins is common practice in wet West Washington to reduce runoff and washouts.

Expect routine maintenance in Yacolt: light regrading with a rake or box blade after heavy rains, filling potholes as they appear, and adding 1/2" to 1" of new topstone every 1–3 years depending on traffic. Heavier repairs or adding more material may be needed every 3–5 years to keep the surface even and well-draining in the rainy season.
