Gravel: Built For West Texas Drainage • Next-Day Gravel Delivered To Fairview
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 Fairview Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Fairview is a growing West Texas community with a city population of 993,588 and a steady annual growth rate of 0.40%. With 228 sunny days per year, 34.25 inches of annual rainfall, and a USDA Hardiness Zone of 8b, homeowners here balance bright, dry summers with enough seasonal rain to create drainage needs. That steady growth is driving more residential projects—from new driveways and patios to front-yard landscaping and erosion control—and those projects depend on reliable, properly graded aggregates. Homeowners choose quality gravel because it improves drainage, reduces maintenance in high-sun conditions, and provides a durable, low-upkeep surface that fits the regional aesthetic and construction patterns.Popular Projects in Fairview This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Fairview gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Fairview.
Delivered gravel costs vary, but most Fairview residential deliveries fall in a broad range because price depends on material type, distance, and driveway access. Expect material prices roughly $25-$60 per ton depending on type (recycled concrete at the low end, decorative river rock at the high end), plus a delivery/haul fee that can be $0-$150 for nearby loads; remote or difficult access deliveries can cost more. Hello Gravel shows transparent quotes for your zip code and the platform’s 3-ton minimum applies to most orders.
For Fairview’s hot summers and clay-prone soils, crushed limestone or crushed aggregate (with some fines) is a top choice for driveways because it compacts well and resists rutting. Pea gravel is good for walkways and drainage areas but tends to shift on slopes, while river rock is decorative and heavy but not ideal for compacted driveways. Recycled concrete can be cost-effective and performs reasonably if properly graded and compacted, but quality varies by supplier.
Use these common estimates for 100 sq ft: for 1" depth about 0.31 cubic yards (roughly 0.4 tons); for 2" about 0.62 cubic yards (roughly 0.8 tons); for 3" about 0.93 cubic yards (roughly 1.25 tons). Remember 1 cubic yard of typical crushed gravel is roughly 1.35 tons, so exact numbers vary by material density. Note that Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum, so small projects often require ordering extra or sharing a load.
Rules vary widely: the Town of Fairview and Collin County generally regulate drainage and driveway encroachments, but many specific appearance rules come from HOAs. If you live in an HOA-controlled neighborhood, check your covenants for allowed materials, colors, and front-yard use before ordering. For municipal questions about driveway permits or drainage, contact Fairview town offices or Collin County permitting to confirm requirements.
Labor-only costs for spreading and compacting in Fairview typically range from about $0.50 to $2.00 per sq ft for simple jobs, while full installs that include base preparation and edging often run $2.00 to $6.00 per sq ft depending on scope and site difficulty. Contractors may charge hourly (often $30-$60 per hour per laborer) or a per-square-foot price. Ask for an itemized quote that separates material, delivery, and labor so you can compare bids accurately.
Gravel is usually the most affordable up-front option and is quick to install, but it requires regular maintenance (regrading, topping off) and can shift under heavy rain. Asphalt and concrete cost more initially and require less frequent topping work, with longer lifespans (15-30+ years) if installed properly, while pavers offer durability and appearance at a higher cost and more labor. For Fairview properties with clay soils and storm runoff, a well-prepared gravel driveway can be economical, but proper base prep and drainage are essential to avoid ongoing repair costs.
In Fairview’s climate you should plan for light maintenance once a year (raking and minor regrading) and a small top-up of material every 2-5 years depending on traffic and storm events. Typical small top-up amounts for a driveway might be 1-3 tons and cost $50-$300 delivered plus any spreading labor; more extensive regrading or full resurfacing will cost more. Heavy summer rains can create washouts after major storms, so inspect and address low spots promptly to avoid larger repairs.
Yes. Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and contracted haulers that serve Fairview and nearby Collin County towns like McKinney and Allen. While we arrange delivery of materials, installation services vary by supplier; request installation or spreading at checkout and ask the supplier for referrals to local installers if you need a full-service contractor. Always check reviews, ask for references, and confirm insurance before hiring a contractor.
Best practice is to excavate to the depth needed and install a compacted base of angular crushed rock or class II road base (commonly 4" to 6" compacted), with geotextile fabric underneath on steep or soft areas to improve stability. Install edge restraints (timber, concrete, or metal) to hold gravel in place, and provide positive drainage away from the driveway to reduce washout. Expect base materials to cost roughly $20-$40 per ton plus compaction labor or equipment rental; investing in a good base pays off with far lower maintenance.
Estimate initial install costs (material, delivery, base prep, labor) and then add periodic maintenance: annual light upkeep and a 2- to 5-year small top-up of gravel. As a rough example, a modest gravel driveway might cost $1,000-$4,000 to install initially for smaller properties, with $100-$600 in maintenance/top-up every few years; over 10-15 years expect total lifecycle costs typically lower than concrete but higher in ongoing maintenance than sealed asphalt. Get a local quote from Hello Gravel for a delivered-material price and combine that with contractor bids for base prep to build a more accurate 10- to 15-year estimate.
As of today, we require 2 business days for delivery.

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.
