Gravel in siloam, GA

Prices vary by material, supplier, and season; expect typical per-ton ranges in West Georgia roughly $20 to $60 per ton as a general guideline, but get an exact quote for Siloam. Hello Gravel shows delivery availability and exact pricing after you enter your zip code; we require a 3-ton minimum and standard delivery is 2+ business days with next-day available for orders placed before noon CST (fee applies). Delivery fees or minimums can vary by supplier and distance from the quarry, so request a quote to see final costs.

On clay and in heavy rain, use a layered approach: compactable base material (screenings or crusher run) for a stable sub-base, topped with angular crushed stone or #57 for surface drainage. Washed gravel or pea gravel can be used as a finish in low-traffic areas, but they do not interlock as well as crushed stone, so combine them with a solid base and good drainage to avoid rutting and washouts. Consider geotextile fabric under the base to reduce mixing with the clay soil.

Estimate using width x length and desired depth: a 1-car driveway (about 10'x20') at 3" depth typically needs roughly 2.5 to 3.5 tons, while a 2-car driveway (about 20'x20') at 3" depth needs about 5 to 7 tons. Hello Gravel has a material calculator to convert your exact dimensions into tons; remember our minimum order is 3 tons, so small repairs may still require that minimum. If you want a stronger base for clay soil or heavier traffic, add material for a 4" base which increases tonnage by roughly one-third.

Installed costs depend on site prep, base material, compaction, edging, and site access; many West Georgia contractor installs fall in the approximate range of $1.50 to $4.00 per square foot. Higher costs occur when excavation, drainage work, geotextile fabric, culverts, or heavy compaction are required. Get written estimates from local contractors and include material costs from Hello Gravel to compare total project pricing.

With proper base, drainage, and periodic upkeep, a gravel driveway in Siloam can function well for 5 to 15 years before a major refresh is needed, though surfaces used by heavy trucks may need more frequent attention. Expect routine maintenance such as adding 1 to 2 inches of new gravel every few years, grading to remove ruts, and fixing washouts after heavy storms. Good drainage, edging, and proactive repairs significantly extend service life in humid, rainy conditions.

Gravel has the lowest upfront material cost and is quick to install, but it requires more frequent maintenance like regrading and topping up. Asphalt and concrete cost more initially and usually have longer service lives and lower regular upkeep, while pavers are often the most expensive but offer curb appeal and durability. Choose gravel for lower initial budget and rural appearance, but factor in recurring maintenance and drainage work in Siloam's rainy climate.

Permit requirements vary by county and subdivision; in many rural parts of Greene County a separate permit for a residential gravel driveway is uncommon, but road frontage improvements, culverts, or driveway widening may need county approval. If you belong to an HOA or a private subdivision, there may be design or material rules that restrict gravel driveways, so check your HOA covenants. We recommend contacting Greene County planning or your HOA before ordering materials.

Slope the driveway so water runs off, install culverts or swales at low spots, and use a compacted crushed-stone base with geotextile fabric to keep the base from mixing with clay subgrade. Add solid edging such as concrete curbing, metal or timber edging, or paver borders to retain gravel and reduce washouts. For persistent wet spots consider French drains or directing runoff to a stable outlet.

Yes. Spring and late-winter storms can cause washouts and heavy trucking on wet ground may rut the driveway, so try to schedule deliveries and major installs during drier periods if possible. Warm months encourage weed growth between stones, so plan for occasional weed control and edging maintenance, and order extra material after storm seasons to repair washouts. If you need quick service, Hello Gravel offers next-day delivery for orders placed before noon CST, but weather and site conditions may affect the driver's ability to spread material.

As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.
