Construction Sand
Some of the many construction aggregate and sand materials we offer.
Typically fine, clean, and free of pebbles, providing a soft surface for players to dive and play on.
Designed for golf-course bunkers, with ideal drainage properties that compact well into a playable surface.
Weathered granite rock fragments used for pathways, driveways, and decorative ground cover — compacts to a firm, stable surface.
Cleaned to remove impurities and used in concrete production for a strong, stable mixture.
Washed to remove clay, silt, and contaminants — applied to plastering and rendering for a smooth, clean finish.
Dried to eliminate moisture, giving better adhesion and a smoother finish than wet sand for plastering.
Filtered to remove larger particles and debris — perfect for leveling beneath pavers, stepping stones, and flagstone.
Common base material in patio construction, providing a level, compact foundation for paving stones or slabs.
A base material that provides adequate compaction and support for numerous construction projects.
A filtered mixture of soil and sand; mixed with sand it improves soil conditions for landscaping and gardening.
Rich in organic matter and nutrients for gardening and landscaping — a fertile layer that improves soil structure.
Sand brought in from other regions when local sources are insufficient or unsuitable for specific projects.
Imported fill used to create a stable base or foundation when local material is unavailable or inadequate.
A specific grade for construction and industrial applications, known for its particular grain size, color, and quality.
A specific grade used in projects requiring precise sand quality and characteristics.
Naturally occurring sand from riverbanks and quarries — used for general fill, backfill, and as a base material.
Fine, high-purity sand for glassmaking, water filtration, and use as a filler in manufacturing.
A coarser grade used in concrete mixes, asphalt, and as bedding material for laying pipes and cables.
A medium-grain sand used in concrete mixes, mortar, and as a leveling base for pavers.
A finer grade for finishing concrete surfaces, sandblasting, and manufacturing mortar and stucco.
Clean, fine sand for playgrounds — a soft, safe surface for children, free of contaminants and debris.
Used in gas-well drilling and fracking to hold fractures open, allowing gas to flow from the well.
We deliver by the truckload across Southern California and into Nevada — same- or next-day windows on most stocked materials.

Many of our sands meet gradation and cleanliness requirements set by ASTM, the Greenbook public-works specs, and Caltrans. Tell us the spec your job calls for and we’ll match it.
Bedding depth varies by application, with recommendations typically ranging from 2 to 6 inches. We can advise based on what you’re setting and the load it carries.
Fine sand (e.g. plaster and playground sand) gives smooth finishes and soft surfaces; coarse sand (e.g. concrete and #16 sand) adds strength and drainage to mixes and bedding.
Yes. We deliver by the truckload or split load, measured in cubic yards, across Southern California — large or small volume.
