Decomposed Granite
Known for its natural look, this compact, durable material drains well and holds up in high-traffic areas.

Why Eagle Lake Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Eagle Lake is a small but steadily growing West Texas community with a city population of 3,950 and ties to a broader metro area of 2.5+ million. With a growth rate of 0.40% annually and a climate that averages 228 sunny days per year and 34.25 inches of rain annually, homeowners here are balancing arid, sun‑forward conditions with occasional heavy storms. That mix drives steady demand for reliable aggregates: driveways and access roads need durable surfaces, yards require erosion control and effective drainage, and landscape beds benefit from low‑maintenance materials that hold up under strong sun and periodic runoff. For many Eagle Lake projects, homeowners choose gravel because it provides immediate stability, helps channel water away from structures, and offers an attractive, low‑upkeep finish that fits the local landscape.Popular Projects in Eagle Lake This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Eagle Lake gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Eagle Lake.
Prices vary by material and supplier, but expect roughly $25 to $60 per ton delivered for common gravels in the Eagle Lake area. That translates to about $33 to $78 per cubic yard using a rough conversion of 1.3 tons per cubic yard. Exact pricing depends on the type (crushed limestone, river rock, decomposed granite), delivery distance, and order size; use our checkout or request a quote for a firm price.
Yes. Regional quarries and landscape suppliers around Colorado County and nearby counties supply crushed limestone, river rock, and sometimes decomposed granite, and many offer delivery to Eagle Lake. Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers and contracted dump truck haulers so you can see which materials and delivery options are available for your zip code. Availability of specific materials like decomposed granite can be limited, so check the product page or request a quote.
For Eagle Lake's hot summers and common clay soils, use a compactable base like crusher run or 3/4" minus (stone with fines) for the bottom layer, topped with 3/4" crushed stone or crushed limestone for wearing surface. The fines help lock the base into the clay and improve resistance to rutting and washouts, and adding geotextile fabric can reduce mixing with clay. Proper grading and drainage are also critical because heavy rains and poor drainage cause failures on clay.
Quantities depend on depth. For a 2-car driveway (about 20'x24'), expect roughly 6 to 12 tons depending on whether you plan 3" total depth (about 6 tons) or a 6" base (about 12 tons). For a 1-car driveway (about 12'x20') plan roughly 3 to 7 tons, and for a 20'x30' patio (600 ft2) plan about 7 to 10 tons at typical 3" to 4" depths. Remember Hello Gravel minimum order is 3 tons, and our material calculator can give a tailored estimate for your exact dimensions and desired depth.
Labor and contractor costs vary with access, site prep, and drainage work, but expect total installed prices for a standard 2-car gravel driveway in the Eagle Lake area to commonly fall between $1,200 and $4,500. This range covers grading, base material, compaction, and spreading; difficult access, significant excavation, or drainage fixes can push costs higher. Get at least two local bids and ask each contractor to itemize mobilization, base prep, and compaction charges.
Plan for light maintenance once a year—regrading and adding 1 to 2 inches of new gravel—plus spot repairs after heavy rain events. Routine DIY topping for a small driveway often costs $50 to $300 in materials; contractor grading or repair after washouts can run $150 to $700 or more depending on damage and access. If your property sees frequent flooding, investing in proper base, edging, and drainage upfront will reduce long-term maintenance costs.
Gravel has the lowest upfront cost and is easy to repair, but it requires regular maintenance and can wash out in heavy rain. Asphalt offers a smoother surface and lower maintenance than gravel but has a higher initial cost and will need resurfacing every 15 to 25 years. Concrete is the most durable with the highest upfront cost and minimal regular maintenance, but it can be more prone to cracking on poorly prepared or clay-heavy soils unless a proper engineered base and drainage are installed.
For heavy farm equipment and trucks, build a strong base: 8" to 12" of compacted crusher run or crushed rock over geotextile fabric, topped with 2" to 3" of durable surface stone such as 3/4" crushed rock. Make sure each layer is compacted with a plate or roller and provide positive drainage so water does not saturate the clay subgrade. Thicker base and wider driveway sections reduce rutting and extend service life under heavy loads.
Yes. Check with Colorado County (or your municipality if inside city limits) for driveway permits, right-of-way and culvert requirements, and any rules affecting road access. If you are in an HOA, review covenants because some associations restrict surface materials or require approval for changes. When in doubt, contact your county office and your HOA before ordering materials or scheduling delivery.
Standard delivery is usually 2 or more business days, but deliveries to rural or farm addresses around Eagle Lake can take 3 to 7 business days depending on supplier availability and road access. Hello Gravel offers next-day delivery for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee when available, but drivers may restrict tailgate spreading or access on narrow, soft, or unsafe sites. Add site notes at checkout and contact our team if you have narrow driveways, low-hanging lines, or other access concerns.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. 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.
