Bulk Aggregates for Pathways in Los Gatos, CA

Start with Class 2 base, the standard California base material. It goes under driveways, parking pads, pavers and slab edges. Clay soils that swell when wet are common in the Coast Range valleys, so the base carries the load.

Ground and Conditions in Los Gatos

A thin base fails first at the edges. The material ravels, the surface ruts, and the pavers rock underfoot. That is what a base laid too shallow looks like after one wet winter.

Soils here change over short distances. Heavy clay that cracks when dry and swells when wet is extensive in the valleys and hills. Rain arrives in a few large winter storms, and it sits on clay instead of soaking in.

Fix it with depth and clean drainage. Compact Class 2 base in lifts, then keep water out of the section. On slopes, hillside runoff and winter slides are the real driver. The dry season from late spring into fall is the window for base, driveway and paver work.

Materials for Los Gatos Projects

Paths and walkways set the tone here. A firm, fine surface packs tight and stays walkable, and it needs a compacted base under it to hold.

Stone Screenings, also called DG, is the fine, firm-packing path material. Lay it over a compacted base for paths, patios and low-water ground cover. Walkway Gravel gives paths and garden beds a finer, walkable surface.

Under both, Class 2 Base does the structural work. Caltrans specifies it as Class 2 aggregate base. Recycled base rock and crushed miscellaneous base are the same idea, made from Road Base or asphalt.

Where water needs to move, Drain Rock handles French drains, drywells, downspout runs and drainage behind retaining walls. Clean stone with no fines lets water pass. 3/4" Drain Rock works the same way in drainage trenches and layers.
