Gravel: Built For Heavy Rain Drainage • Next-Day Gravel Delivery Before Noon CST
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 Katy Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Katy has a city population of 403,281 and sits within a metro area population of 7.1+ million. With an annual growth rate of 2.50%, the area is seeing steady residential and commercial development that drives demand for durable exterior materials. Katy's climate — about 215 sunny days annually and roughly 50.00 inches of annual rainfall in USDA hardiness zone 9a — supports year-round outdoor projects but also means heavy downpours can challenge drainage and erosion control. Homeowners are choosing quality aggregates to protect driveways, reduce standing water, stabilize slopes, and improve curb appeal. The right gravel helps channel water away from foundations, resists rutting under frequent use, and stays looking tidy under strong sun and storm cycles. Gravel is a practical choice for many local projects because it promotes fast drainage, reduces erosion on sloped yards, and performs well under Katy's mix of sun and heavy rain. For patios, pathways, driveways, French drains, and base layers under pavers, properly graded gravel balances compaction and permeability for long-lasting results. Hello Gravel connects Katy homeowners with local suppliers and professional haulers, offers clear pricing and delivery scheduling (minimum orders apply), and provides material calculators and expert guidance so you get the right gravel delivered by dump truck on a timeline that fits your project needs.Popular Projects in Katy This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Katy gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Katy.
Costs vary by material, amount, and distance from the supplier. In Katy, material prices commonly range from about $25 to $70 per ton depending on type, with delivery fees that can be free in some areas or commonly $50 to $150 for short hauls; larger orders usually lower the per-ton price. Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum and will show transparent pricing for your zip code at checkout.
For driveways, angular crushed stone (for example #57 or 3/4" crushed limestone) is preferred because it compacts and resists rutting while allowing drainage. For pathways and patios, decomposed granite, pea gravel, or small crushed stone provide a stable, comfortable surface; choose materials that drain well and match local color preferences because Katy tends to source lighter limestone and mixed aggregates.
Hello Gravel connects you with trusted local suppliers and trucking partners serving the Katy area, and our online quote tool will show available materials and pricing for your zip code. The platform enforces a 3-ton minimum order; bulk discounts and lower per-ton delivery rates usually apply for larger loads, and final pricing depends on material type, distance, and availability.
Regulations vary across Katy, since parts of the area fall under city, Harris County, or Fort Bend County jurisdiction, and many neighborhoods have HOAs with their own rules. Check with your HOA first for material and color restrictions, then contact your local building or public works department if you plan curb cuts, driveway widening, or work affecting drainage to confirm any permit requirements.
First calculate cubic yards: (area in square feet x depth in inches) / 324 equals cubic yards. Multiply cubic yards by about 1.3 to convert to tons (density varies by material). Example: a 12' x 40' driveway at 3" depth is 12 x 40 x 3 / 324 = 4.44 cubic yards, or roughly 5.8 tons; always round up and allow extra for compaction and spreading, and remember our 3-ton minimum.
A well-installed gravel driveway or path in Katy can last 5 to 15 years before needing major rebuilding, depending on traffic and drainage. Expect light maintenance like annual raking, spot regrading after heavy rains, and adding a 1/2" to 1" top-up of gravel every 1 to 3 years; good drainage and a proper base significantly extend service life.
Start with a compacted base of larger rock or crush (4" to 6" for driveways), consider a geotextile fabric to separate soil and stone, and finish with a well-graded top layer of angular crushed stone. Provide positive drainage away from structures and use edging to keep material confined; compacting and periodic regrading after storms will help prevent ruts and washouts.
Hello Gravel coordinates delivery via local dump truck fleets; standard delivery is typically 2+ business days and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an extra fee. Drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion, so request it at checkout, but spreading is not guaranteed; minimum orders are 3 tons and deliveries come from contracted haulers rather than Hello Gravel-branded trucks.
Because Hello Gravel sources materials from local suppliers, gravel in Katy often reflects regional geology—commonly lighter-colored limestone and mixed aggregates—which affects appearance and how the material compacts. Expect natural variation in color, texture, and particle mix; if color or texture is important, add notes to your order and ask our team for local samples or photos before delivery.
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.

No, because we are a national supplier, we utilize our existing network of suppliers across the country. Therefore, the materials will likely be delivered from a contracted trucking company.

We have a network of suppliers that we source the materials from where we have negotiated rates.
