Materials for Tecate Projects

Most work here is landscape work: beds, paths, dry creek beds and ground cover. Decorative rock carries those projects, but each layer under it matters just as much.

For paths and patios, Stone Screenings, also called DG, packs firm and fine. It goes over a compacted base and gives you a surface that walks clean.

For beds and borders, river rock, also called river cobble, holds shape and color season after season. Cobble, also called large river rock, is the heavier option for dry creek beds and swales where runoff needs slowing down.

Natural Pea Gravel works for play areas, walkways and bedding. It is small, rounded and easy underfoot.

Under all of it, Class 2 base, also called Class II base rock, is the standard California base material. Caltrans specifies it as Class 2 aggregate base, and it carries driveways, parking pads and the base under pavers and slabs. Recycled base rock does the same job when it is made from Road Base or asphalt.

Ground and Conditions in Tecate

Start with the soil and what it does to an under-built base. Much of this ground is expansive clay. It swells when wet and shrinks and cracks when dry, and that movement travels straight up through anything sitting on it.

Rain here arrives in a few winter storms and atmospheric rivers after a long dry season. Water runs off hardscape and hard dry ground fast, and wetting that clay makes it swell under slabs and paving. A compacted Class 2 base spread wide and watered in as you compact it is what keeps a drive or patio from shifting.

Where water needs to move, use clean stone. Three-quarter inch drain rock, also called #57 stone, has no fines, so water passes through it. It suits French drains, drainage trenches and drainage layers.

The long, warm, dry season suits base and paver work for most of the year. Winter storm days are the main interruption, so plan the grading work around them.

Can I order material by the ton for delivery in Tecate?

Yes. Every bulk material, from Class 2 base to river cobble, is ordered by the ton or by the yard. Set the quantity at checkout, pick your delivery date, and a dump truck brings it to your site. If you are unsure of the amount, run the calculator first and order from that number.
