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

Can range in color from light brown and tan to reddish and gray, depending on the natural stone color in the region.
Walkway Gravel
A smaller ⅜” crushed stone that is great for paths, patios, and garden walkways. Comfortable under foot thanks to its smaller size, and creates a beautiful garden-like atmosphere.
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 North Houston Gardens Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
North Houston Gardens is a growing neighborhood of 25,000 residents within the Houston-The Woodlands metro, expanding at about 2.00% annually in a subtropical setting. With an average annual rainfall of 49.00 inches, roughly 205 sunny days per year, and a USDA hardiness zone of 9b, local yards and infrastructure face both heavy wet seasons and long stretches of sun. That mix drives steady demand for durable, well-draining aggregates for driveways, French drains, garden paths, and erosion control on sloped lots. Homeowners and local contractors alike look for reliable information on particle size, compaction behavior, and local sourcing so they can pick the gravel that will resist washout, support warm-climate plantings, and require minimal upkeep under Houston-area conditions.Popular Projects in North Houston Gardens This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - North Houston Gardens gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in North Houston Gardens.
Hello Gravel has a 3-ton minimum for typical bulk deliveries, so 1-2 ton bulk orders are generally not available through our truck deliveries. For small projects, consider buying bagged gravel from local landscape supply yards or ask Hello Gravel for suppliers that offer smaller loads; pricing for bagged material in the Houston area typically runs higher per ton than bulk (expect a premium for convenience). For an exact cost and any local small-load options, enter your zip code on our site or contact our team for a tailored quote.
For the Houston area, well-graded crushed stone (3/4" minus) or crushed limestone are common choices because they compact well and resist rutting in wet conditions. Crushed granite and crusher-run mixes are also good for a stable base and surface; pea gravel generally performs poorly on driveways because it shifts under vehicle traffic. Layering a compacted base with a smaller wearing stone gives the best long-term result in North Houston Gardens' wet, clay-prone soils.
A 20x20 driveway is 400 sq ft. To calculate: area (sq ft) x depth (ft) / 27 = cubic yards, then multiply cubic yards by about 1.4 tons per cubic yard to get tons. Example: for a 3" wearing layer (0.25 ft) you need ~3.7 cu yd (~5.2 tons); for a 4" base you need ~4.9 cu yd (~6.9 tons); order 10-15% extra to allow for compaction and grading. Note Hello Gravel minimum order is 3 tons, so check that against your calculated need.
Yes. North Houston Gardens commonly has clayey soils and heavy rains, so a properly prepared base is important: a compacted, well-graded crushed-stone base (4" to 6" or more depending on traffic), geotextile fabric for separation, and good surface drainage are recommended. Without a stable base, gravel will sink, wash away, and develop ruts quickly in our climate. Consider hiring a contractor for grading and compaction to ensure longevity.
Hello Gravel connects you with local landscape suppliers and regional quarries that serve the North Houston Gardens area—enter your zip code to see nearby options and get quotes. Common sources in the greater Houston area include landscape supply yards, stone yards, and quarries located around the metro; delivery availability and material variety vary by supplier. If you want decorative colors or specific stone types, ask for photos and specify 'decorative gravel' and the intended use in Order Notes.
Costs vary with access, existing grade, thickness, and truck access, but typical full installation (site prep, geotextile, base, compaction, and top stone) for a gravel driveway in the Houston area runs roughly $4 to $8 per sq ft. For a 20x20 (400 sq ft) driveway that translates to about $1,600 to $3,200 as a rough range, excluding material costs. Get local site-specific quotes because clay soils, drainage fixes, and heavy equipment needs can raise the price.
Permeable gravel, such as open-graded stone or larger angular stone over an engineered base, can help infiltration and reduce surface pooling, especially for small areas and driveways. However, Houston's clay-rich soils often limit how quickly water soaks in, so permeable installations may need additional design elements like underdrains, larger storage layers, or directing overflow to rain gardens. Talk with a local installer or Hello Gravel about engineered permeable options if stormwater control is a priority.
In Houston's humid, rainy climate, high-traffic gravel driveways typically need topping every 2 to 5 years, while decorative beds may need a light refresh every 1 to 3 years. Coarser, angular crushed stone and crushed limestone generally lock together and resist movement better than rounded pea gravel, so they tend to last longer before replacement. Proper base preparation and good drainage have a bigger impact on longevity than stone type alone.
Using a geotextile separation fabric under the gravel is often recommended in North Houston Gardens to prevent mixing of clay subsoil and gravel while allowing drainage; it helps stabilize the base and keeps weeds from penetrating from below. However, fabric is not a cure-all—weeds can still grow from windblown seeds on the surface, so combine fabric with a sufficient gravel depth (3"+ for decorative areas, 4"-6" for driveways) and edging to reduce migration. For driveways, prioritize a compacted base plus fabric rather than relying on fabric alone.
Gravel is usually the least expensive up front, offers excellent drainage, and is easy to install, but it requires more ongoing maintenance (periodic topping, grading, and controlling ruts). Asphalt provides a smoother, low-maintenance surface but is less permeable and can be more expensive up front; pavers are the most costly initially but offer long life and curb appeal with low maintenance. In North Houston Gardens, gravel is a practical choice if drainage and initial budget are priorities, while asphalt or pavers may be better where a stable, low-maintenance surface is required.
