Why Buda Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Buda is a growing West Texas city of 45,990, part of a metro area of 2.5+ million and expanding at about 1.26% annually. With 152 sunny days each year, a mild Hardiness Zone of 8b, and 38.15 inches of annual rainfall, Buda combines regular sun with periodic heavy showers—conditions that keep landscaping and drainage projects in steady demand. Homeowners here are investing in longer-lasting driveways, better stormwater management, and low-maintenance yards as new construction and infill continue. That steady growth and active outdoor lifestyle mean people want reliable, locally sourced aggregates that match Buda’s geology and weather, so paving, edging, and erosion-control solutions perform well over time.Popular Projects in Buda This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Buda gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Buda.
Delivered gravel prices in the Buda area commonly fall in a range because material type and distance matter; expect roughly $30 to $75 per ton delivered for common landscape and driveway gravels. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum order; some suppliers add a small delivery fee for short runs or next-day requests. For an exact price for your property, check your zip code on our site or request a quote.
Hello Gravel connects you with local quarries and landscape suppliers that serve Buda and nearby cities like Austin and San Marcos. We handle sourcing and delivery logistics so you can compare materials and prices in one place; enter your zip code or contact our team for supplier options in your neighborhood. If you prefer direct calling, ask about quarry stone, crusher run, and screened landscape gravel when you speak to a rep.
For driveways in Buda’s clay soils, 3/4" crusher run or road base (a mix of fines and angular stone) are best because they compact and resist rutting. Crushed limestone is also common locally and bonds well when compacted. Use pea gravel or washed decorative gravel for patios (comfortable underfoot but poor for vehicle traffic), and river rock or larger washed stone for drainage areas to reduce washout.
Using a 1.4-ton per cubic yard assumption, plan on about 1 ton covering 116 sq ft at 2" depth, 77 sq ft at 3", and 58 sq ft at 4". For a quick estimate: divide the project area in square feet by those coverage numbers to find tons needed, then add 5-10% for compaction and waste. If you want a precise amount, use our material calculator or enter your dimensions at checkout.
Heat itself doesn’t damage rock, but the hot, dry spells increase dust on finer materials and can dry out compacted fines, reducing binding over time. During heavy summer storms or flash rains, loose or improperly graded gravel can wash out on slopes; proper grading, edge restraints, and a compacted base reduce washout. Choosing coarser, angular crushed stone and installing good drainage will reduce rutting and erosion in storm events.
Maintenance depends on traffic: most residential gravel driveways need light regrading and pothole repair every 1 to 3 years and additional topping (1"-2" of new material) every 3 to 5 years. Small maintenance jobs (rake, fill potholes, light regrade) can be DIY for under $200 in material, while contractor regrades with fresh gravel typically run from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on size and prep needs. Expect higher costs when heavy equipment or major reshaping is required.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost and is quick to install, but it requires periodic maintenance (regrading and topping) and can need more attention after storms. Asphalt and concrete cost more up front and generally need less frequent surface maintenance, but repairs and replacements are more expensive when they are required. Pavers offer a longer lifespan and easier spot repairs but have a higher installation cost; weigh initial budget, maintenance willingness, drainage needs, and local soil conditions when choosing.
Regulations vary by neighborhood: some Buda and Hays County areas allow gravel driveways, while certain city codes or HOA covenants may have restrictions on types of front-yard surfacing or visible driveway materials. Before you order, check City of Buda permitting requirements and your HOA covenants; if in doubt, call Hello Gravel for guidance and confirm with your local planning or HOA office. We recommend getting approvals before scheduling delivery.
To minimize dust and rutting, choose angular crushed stone or road base (3/4" crusher run) and install a well-compacted base layer of larger stone beneath the finish surface. Adding a layer of fines that bind when compacted, keeping the surface at 3"-4" depth, and using geotextile fabric to stabilize subgrade will reduce rutting. For dust control, consider washed rock or periodic light watering, a dust-control polymer, or a top layer of larger crushed stone that generates less fine dust.
Standard installation includes clearing and grading the area, installing geotextile fabric on soft subgrade if needed, placing and compacting a 4"-6" base of larger stone or road base, and topping with 2"-4" of finish gravel with edge restraints. Contractor pricing varies by project complexity; simple installs for small driveways may average roughly $8 to $20 per ton installed (including material and labor), while full rebuilds with significant grading or drainage work cost more. Get multiple local quotes and ask contractors to outline base depth, compaction method, and edge restraint details.

This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
