Need a load of cement sand or aggragate?


This is a typical load of sand for your cement needs. This load delivered 20 miles = 900 p or about $90 US.

Some trucks will vary on yardage.

Where did you get the sand. In Santa Rosalia, I have seen good washed sand but can not seem to find who does it. We had a pad poured but they used arroyo sand which had way too much dirt for my liking and another person had one poured but they used beach sand and indicated that most of the salt came out.
I am building a patio with flat rock and would like to fine some quality sand to work with.

Pescador....a good local source here in Mulege are the Santana brothers. They provide us with good sand. Beach sand? Whoa...haven't heard of anybody using that stuff for many years.

I built a 500 m2 seaside patio with flagstone using sand supplied by the Santanas about 5 years ago and it is holding up quite well. They hauled many truckloads for that job. I don't have their number handy, but they are well known in the area and most all residents will know them.
