Sand

Washed concrete sand has been processed and cleaned to remove impurities, dirt and dust. The washing process helps to improve the quality of the sand and ensures that it is consistent in size and shape.

This type of sand is commonly used in concrete mixes because it provides better workability and consistency, but it can be used in other applications, such as using it as a base for laying bricks or pavers.

Washed concrete sand has several key uses, especially in construction and other applications where clean, high-quality sand is necessary.

Some of its most common uses include:
1. Concrete mixes. It is a vital ingredient in making concrete, providing strength and workability to the mix.
2. Paver base. Washed sand is often used as a base material for laying pavers or flagstones. It provides a stable foundation and helps with drainage, preventing the pavers from shifting over time.
3. Sand for pool construction. It’s used particularly for filling around pool liners.
4. Sandy soil amendment. Washed sand is sometimes used in soil to improve drainage. It can be added to gardens or landscape beds to help water flow more efficiently through the soil.
5. Backfill material. It’s used as a backfill material in trenches or around pipes.
6. Sporting facilities. Washed sand is used for constructing sand volleyball courts, horse arenas and other sports facilities.

These are just a few examples of how washed concrete sand is used across various applications. Its clean, uniform particles make it a versatile and valuable material in construction and landscaping. The Dirt Guy has washed concrete sand available for $78/cubic yard.
