Gravel: Hardwearing Drainage For Sunny Climates • Next-Day Gravel Delivery In Horseshoe Bay
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 Horseshoe Bay Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Horseshoe Bay sits in West Texas with a city population of 6,700 and is part of a fast-growing metro area of 2.5+ million. With a growth rate of 2.28% annually, local construction and landscaping activity is rising as homeowners expand yards, add driveways, and update drainage. The climate—about 228 sunny days a year, an average of 34.16 inches of rainfall, and hardiness zone 8b—creates a need for materials that handle both bright sun and periodic heavy rain. Homeowners in Horseshoe Bay look for durable, well-draining aggregates that reduce erosion on slopes, prevent muddy patches after storms, and support low-maintenance, drought-tolerant landscaping. Regional sourcing means color and texture vary by supplier, so choosing the right gravel for appearance and performance matters for curb appeal and long-term durability.Popular Projects in Horseshoe Bay This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Horseshoe Bay gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Horseshoe Bay.
Avoid pea gravel on steep slopes, high-traffic driveways, wheelchair ramps, and playgrounds because it shifts and can be hard to walk on. In Horseshoe Bay's windy hill-country conditions pea gravel also tends to migrate and collect in low spots, so choose crushed or angular stone for stability.
River gravel is typically larger, rounded, and comes in a mix of sizes for decorative beds and dry creek features, while pea gravel is small, smooth, and uniform in size for pathways and seating areas. Local suppliers in West Texas may offer both, and river rock usually gives a more natural look while pea gravel packs looser and moves more easily.
You should prepare the base: remove vegetation, grade and compact the soil, and install an edge restraint and geotextile fabric for most installations. For walkways a 3-inch compacted layer may work; for driveways use a compacted base of 4-6 inches of crushed stone under the top gravel to avoid rutting on local clay soils.
A quick rule of thumb: 1 cubic yard of gravel covers about 100 square feet at a 3-inch depth, and 1 cubic yard is roughly 1.4 tons. Hello Gravel's material calculator can convert your area and desired depth into tons (minimum order is 3 tons), so use it or measure length x width x depth and convert to cubic yards.
Buying in bulk by the ton and scheduling a single delivery saves money versus multiple small bags; compare local supplier quotes and consider pickup at a nearby quarry if you have a truck. Hello Gravel connects you to local suppliers with transparent pricing so you can compare materials, delivery fees, and minimums easily.
Pea gravel is often not ideal for pool edges because it can be uncomfortable underfoot and migrates into the pool and filters. For pool surrounds in Horseshoe Bay, consider angular compacting stone, pavers, or a firm crushed-rock base that drains well and resists migration.
Remove existing vegetation, lay a permeable geotextile fabric, add a compacted base, and top with at least 2-3 inches of clean gravel. Because Horseshoe Bay's warm climate encourages weeds, combine fabric with regular maintenance and spot-use of approved herbicides as needed.
Tailgate spreading may be available; request it at checkout and the driver will assess safety and feasibility on arrival. Hello Gravel notes this service is at the driver's discretion and not guaranteed, so plan to rake or hire local help if you need precise spreading.
Yes. Summer heat can make installation harder and affect compaction, while heavy rains can wash fresh gravel into low areas. Schedule deliveries during drier weather when possible and plan for proper drainage to avoid washouts after storms common in the Hill Country.
Possibly. Many Horseshoe Bay neighborhoods and HOAs have rules about driveway material, color, and appearance, and the city may have ordinances on impervious surfaces or drainage. Check your HOA guidelines and contact the city or county building department before ordering to avoid rework.
Yes. Clean, angular drain rock and larger river rock work well for French drains, dry creek beds, and outlet areas to direct water away from structures. Use geotextile fabric, the proper rock size for the application, and slope the material to match local drainage patterns.
Prices vary by material, stone size, supplier, and distance, but residential buyers in the region often see ranges roughly between $25 and $70 per ton delivered. For an exact price, enter your zip code and material choice on Hello Gravel to get a real-time quote for your Horseshoe Bay address.

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.
