Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas. Made from crushed and weathered granite down to a mix of fine gravel and sand—best for patios, paths, driveways, and landscape projects. Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Road Base
(Class 5 | ABC | Crusher Run) A mixture of crushed limestone or granite, gravel, and sand, ranging from 1 ½” in size down to fines (small particles). Commonly used for constructing roads, driveway bases, parking lots, and other paved and unpaved surfaces. Intended to be compacted, hence the inclusion of fines within the material to provide support and be resistant to erosion and shifting.

Why Bay Point Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Bay Point is a growing West California community of 520,000 residents. With a steady growth rate of 0.40% annually and a moderate climate—about 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of rain annually (hardiness zone 8b)—the area supports steady residential improvement and outdoor projects. The broader metro area of 2.5+ million people adds to ongoing construction and renovation demand. Homeowners and contractors in Bay Point often need reliable aggregates for driveways, drainage upgrades, walkways, and planting beds. Quality gravel helps manage runoff during rainy periods, improves surface stability under extended sun, and reduces maintenance on paths and driveways. Because local geology affects color and texture, sourcing regionally appropriate gravel is important for both performance and curb appeal.Popular Projects in Bay Point This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Bay Point gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Bay Point.
Local gravel prices typically range from about $30 to $80 per ton depending on type (pea gravel, crushed rock, decomposed granite). Delivery fees for nearby suppliers are often $0 to $150, but costs rise with distance or tight access; Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and standard delivery is 2+ business days, with next-day available before noon CST for an extra fee. Request a quote in checkout to see an exact price for your address.
For Bay Point’s mild, wet winters and alluvial soils, angular crushed rock (3/4" minus or 3/4" clean crushed rock) is best for driveways because it compacts and interlocks for vehicle loads. For walkways and patios, decomposed granite or pea gravel can work well; decomposed granite offers a firmer walking surface while pea gravel is decorative but can shift unless stabilized. In coastal or seasonal runoff areas choose materials that drain well and pair with proper base and edging.
Estimate using area times depth: area (ft2) x depth (ft) / 27 = cubic yards, then multiply cubic yards by about 1.3 to get tons (1 yd3 ≈ 1.3 tons). Example: a 20 ft x 10 ft area at 3 inches deep is 200 ft2 x 0.25 ft / 27 ≈ 1.85 yd3, or ≈ 2.4 tons; note Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum so you would order 3 tons. Always round up for compaction and driveway edges and ask Hello Gravel if you need help with the calculation.
Materials alone typically run $30 to $80 per ton depending on type. Installed costs vary by scope: a basic regrade and delivery for a small driveway might run about $2 to $6 per square foot, while a full install with excavation, base rock, geotextile, and compaction can be $4 to $10 per square foot. Get a local contractor estimate for accurate installed pricing, since access, slope, and drainage greatly affect labor costs.
Yes, Hello Gravel partners with local suppliers and contracted trucking fleets that serve Bay Point; availability depends on your zip code. For installation, local landscaping and paving contractors in Contra Costa County provide base prep, grading, and compaction—ask Hello Gravel for recommended partners or check local listings and reviews. We coordinate delivery and can provide material quotes so you can share them with installers.
Yes. Winter rains can cause fines and loose stone to migrate, so choose angular, well-graded material and install a compacted base with proper slopes to handle runoff. Use geotextile fabric to reduce mixing with native soils, add edge restraints to stop lateral movement, and plan for swales or drains if your site has concentrated runoff. Avoid very fine materials in high-runoff spots because they can wash out.
Many simple driveway resurfacing jobs do not require a county permit, but changes that widen a driveway, alter curb cuts, or impact public right of way often do. Bay Point falls under Contra Costa County jurisdiction and some neighborhoods have HOAs with rules on driveway materials and appearance, so check the Contra Costa County Planning Department and your HOA before starting. If you are unsure, contact Hello Gravel or the county planning office to confirm requirements.
A properly installed gravel driveway with a compacted base can last many years, though surface replenishment and regrading are common maintenance tasks. Expect to add 1 to 2 inches of gravel every 1 to 5 years depending on traffic and winter erosion, and perform periodic raking, weed control, and re-compaction. Routine maintenance is simple and inexpensive compared with replacing hard surfaces, but high-traffic or poor-drainage areas require more frequent attention.
Gravel is generally the most cost-effective upfront option and provides excellent drainage, which helps in Bay Point’s wet season. Asphalt and concrete cost more to install and offer smoother, low-maintenance surfaces but are less permeable and more expensive to repair. Pavers are durable and attractive but are the priciest; choose gravel if budget and drainage are priorities, and consider harder surfaces if you want minimal routine maintenance.
Contractors commonly recommend a compacted base layer of crushed rock or road base 4 to 6 inches thick, covered with a 2 to 3 inch wearing course of 3/4" crushed rock or 3/4" minus for driveways. Use geotextile fabric over soft soils, edge restraints to keep material contained, and proper slope or drainage channels to prevent erosion. For steep or high-traffic areas consider a thicker base or stabilization products to reduce washout and rutting.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
