Delivered Gravel and Base Stone for Sandpoint
Sandpoint is in Bonner County, with ZIP code 83864. New gravel drives and worn driveways both need a firm, shaped base before the top layer goes down. Idaho Rock Supply lists bulk stone, sand and soil for online ordering with a selected delivery date.
Sandpoint materials for drives, pads and finish work
For a driveway rebuild, start with 3/4 Road Mix, also called 3/4 minus or road mix. This material includes fines that lock together under compaction. It is listed as ITD Section 703 3/4 inch aggregate base and works for driveway sections, shed pads and paver base layers. Pit Run is useful where a project needs bulk fill and grading material before a finished base course is placed.
Snake River Rock gives beds and borders a rounded finish. Mason sand is a fine material for leveling and masonry work, while washed sand fits jobs calling for clean sand. Natural Pea Gravel works as a loose finished surface, but it does not replace a compacted base under vehicle traffic.
Ground, frost and drainage checks for Bonner County
Idaho's statewide frost-depth guide is 30 inches. Confirm frost requirements with the local building department before sizing a footing, post base or other structural work. A gravel driveway does not need to match footing depth, but its base must be thick enough for the traffic and ground conditions at the site.
For light vehicle use, a compacted base commonly runs 4 to 6 inches. Heavier traffic, soft ground or repeated turning calls for more depth after the subgrade is shaped and compacted. Place 3/4 Road Mix in manageable lifts, compact each lift, and crown or slope the surface so water has a route away from the drive.
Idaho's Panhandle has clay soils that hold water, unlike freely draining alluvial gravel in the Treasure Valley. Check the soil before setting base depth. Where water collects, use Drain Rock, also known as 3/4 clean or washed rock, around a drain line or outlet, and provide an outlet for the water rather than trapping it below the base.
