Who Orders Road Base From Us

Flex Base for Road Contractors, Commercial Paving, Residential & Civil Projects

If you’re building a road, a pad, a parking lot, or a construction entrance in Texas, you need flex base. We source the right spec and coordinate delivery to your jobsite — no matter how many loads, no matter the timeline.

Road & Highway Contractors

TxDOT-spec flex base for state highways, county roads, and municipal street projects. Type A and Type D both available with documentation. High-volume, schedule-driven delivery.

Sitework & Commercial Paving

Sub-base for parking lots, commercial pads, and building foundations. Flex base provides the compacted foundation layer that asphalt and concrete pour over. Gets your pad weatherproofed fast.

Residential & Subdivision

Driveways, subdivision streets, and private roads. ¾” down flex base is the standard for residential applications — compacts tight, holds under vehicle loads, and resists washout in Texas clay soils.

Civil & Infrastructure

Construction entrances, laydown yards, temporary haul roads, and staging areas. Flex base is frequently used to weatherproof a project — a cap on building pads or staging areas that reduces lost time from rain delays.
Material Types

Three Flex Base Materials — Limestone, Crushed Concrete & Caliche

All three flex base materials meet TxDOT Item 247. The difference is source material — choose based on your project spec requirements and budget.

Type A

Limestone Flex Base —
TxDOT Item 247 Type A

Crushed limestone produced and graded from a single quarry source. The premium specification for TxDOT-funded roads, county projects, and contracts requiring documented single-source aggregate. Consistent gradation, high compressive strength, and excellent drainage.

Best For

State highways · County roads · Commercial pads · Driveways · DOT-funded projects

Type A

Crushed Concrete Flex Base —
TxDOT Item 247 Type D

Recycled crushed concrete meeting TxDOT Item 247 Type D specification. Performs comparably to limestone flex base at 20–30% lower cost. Ideal for projects where budget matters and single-source documentation is not required.

Best For

Parking lots · Construction pads · Driveways · Haul roads · Cost-sensitive projects

Caliche Road Base —
Central & West Texas

Naturally occurring calcium carbonate material sourced from Central & West Texas deposits. A cost-effective base option for projects in areas where caliche is the local aggregate. Good compaction properties for light to moderate traffic applications.

Best For

Rural roads · Private driveways · Agricultural applications · Low-traffic surfaces
TxDOT Spec

Item 247 Flexible Base — Type A and Type D, Grade 1 or 2

Flexible base is a granular, unbound material placed as a base course in the pavement structure. Txdot TxDOT Item 247 covers the specification for flexible base aggregate used on Texas state highways and DOT-funded projects. Type A is crushed stone from a single natural source. Type D is Type A material or crushed concrete. Grade 1 and Grade 2 available. Gradation reports and documentation available on request.

Common Questions

Road Base & Flex Base FAQ — Common Questions From Texas Contractors

What's the difference between road base and flex base?

In Texas, they’re the same thing. Contractors use both terms for the same product — a compacted crushed aggregate base material meeting TxDOT Item 247. “Flex base” is the TxDOT spec name. “Road base” is the common contractor term. We carry both Type A and Type D to meet either reference.

Which type do I need — Type A or Type D?

If your project is TxDOT-funded or requires documented single-source aggregate, specify Type A limestone. If your project is commercial or private and budget matters, Type D crushed concrete delivers equivalent performance at lower cost. Not sure — call us and we’ll help you read your spec sheet.

Do you carry TxDOT-certified material?

Yes. Both our Type A and Type D flex base meet TxDOT Item 247 specifications. Grade 1 and Grade 2 available. Not everyone sells a testable flex base to TxDOT Item 247 specifications — without proper testing, you could be purchasing stone that is too soft and will break down within a few years. Ask us for gradation reports when you quote.

How deep should flex base be installed?

For roads and heavy-traffic applications, 6–8 inches compacted is standard. For driveways and light commercial, 4–6 inches. For construction entrances and temporary haul roads, 6 inches minimum. Depth depends on subgrade condition and load requirements — call us if you need help estimating.

Minimum Order for Flex Base Delivery in Texas

One full truckload. We don’t deliver partial loads. Use our Aggregate Materials Calculator to estimate how many loads your project needs, or call us — we help contractors calculate quantities for road base projects daily.
