If your project in Chula Vista needs to stand the test of time, whether it’s a new subdivision down by Otay Ranch, an expanded trail at Chula Vista Bayfront, or a backyard sanctuary in Eastlake, you’re not just pouring dreams onto the landscape. You’re shaping a foundation that can outlast history. That’s where FST Sand & Gravel comes in.
With over six decades of unwavering service to Southern California, FST Sand & Gravel is the trusted supplier for builders, contractors, developers, and homeowners across the Chula Vista area. We stand behind every load of stone, sand, gravel, and soil, each batch processed with exacting standards, local knowledge, and an eye for the sweeping growth happening right here in San Diego County.
Rock-Solid Foundations: Aggregate Expertise for Chula Vista Projects
Chula Vista is a city on the rise, a blend of rolling hill neighborhoods, urban resurgence, and waterfront growth. In a place where new construction rubs shoulders with treasured older properties, choosing the right aggregate isn’t just important; it’s mission-critical.
FST Sand & Gravel supplies a comprehensive catalog of rock products specifically engineered for the demands of Chula Vista’s diverse soil conditions, seismic requirements, and architectural ambitions. Picture the sturdy underlay beneath Eastlake’s homes, the reliable roadbeds of Third Avenue, or the drainage solutions for hillside homes above Bonita. The materials we deliver go beyond specification; they become part of Chula Vista’s bones.
Serving Chula Vista, CA
Rock Categories That Anchor the Community
From the enduring reliability of crushed rock, perfect for base layers under parking lots or driveways, to the decorative, smooth finish of pea gravel gracing public landscaping or walking paths, our range covers every imaginable application:
- Crushed Rock: Available in multiple sizes, ideal for foundational roadbed, structural base material, or drainage rock.
- Pea Gravel & Birds Eye: For both aesthetic flourishes and utility, used in pathways, play areas, and decorative zones.
- Specialty Aggregates: Materials like Class 2 Base and C-Mix, mastered for custom compaction and engineered fill.
When you see a Chula Vista development rise from the dust, its footings strong and true, there’s a good chance FST stone has provided the backbone.
Sand Solutions That Stand Up to the Elements
Anyone who has lived through a Chula Vista winter knows the role proper sand and aggregate play in battling erosion, managing runoff, or giving structure to concrete and masonry. No two applications are the same, and local climate matters.
FST Sand & Gravel doesn’t deliver generic sand: we dial in the right material for every job, from sharp, clean fill sand perfect for sub-base and fill applications in new housing tracts, to washed plaster sand tailored for smooth stucco finishes on sun-baked South Bay facades.
Sand Products for Every Chula Vista Need
- SE30 Fill Sand: Engineered for stability and compaction, common in subgrade support for streets and sidewalks near Chula Vista schools or commercial districts.
- Crusher Fines & Rock Dust: Excellent for specialty leveling, finishing, or as a component of blended soils and hardscape bases.
- Wash Con & Washed Plaster Sand: For masonry, stucco, or decorative applications, ensures a consistent, high-quality finish that withstands Chula Vista’s coastal breezes and sunny climate.
FST’s sand is not “one size fits all.” When you’re building for the future, you need a sand supplier who knows the local landscape and how to match the material to your exact challenge.
Rip-Rap for Coastal and Erosion Control
Are you a developer grappling with hillside slip in Rancho Del Rey, or a public agency managing shoreline stabilization near the Sweetwater Marsh? Rip-rap is more than just big stones; done right, it is the armor that protects Chula Vista from nature’s moods.
FST Sand & Gravel boasts a broad selection of rip-rap grades, ranging from 6” stones for drainage swales to massive 8-foot boulders that form living breakwaters. Our team understands the difference between rip-rap for a Sweetwater River restoration versus a rip-rap retaining wall above Main Street.
Rip-Rap Grades to Tame the Terrain
- Class III to Class XI: Spec’d for weight, size, and application, from channel lining to slope stabilization.
- Custom Boulder Selection: For landscape features and civil works that demand a dramatic anchor.
Our experience in coastal and inland slope protection is not theoretical; it’s born from decades of solving real South County erosion problems.
Soil That Cultivates Growth, Not Surprises
Clean Fill Dirt & Soil Media: For grading, leveling, and custom blends that meet Chula Vista’s unique building codes and landscaping aesthetics.
Our soil is the grounding that allows landscapes (and property values) to thrive.
Why FST Sand & Gravel Is the First Choice for Chula Vista
Local builders don’t choose FST Sand & Gravel because we’re just another supplier; they come to us because our reputation is baked into the foundations of the community. For more than sixty years, we’ve served Southern California with a level of integrity and knowledge that’s hard to duplicate.
Local Knowledge That Delivers Results
It’s no accident that our material moves seamlessly between a Bonita hillside, a modern Chula Vista municipal project, and a custom Lemon Grove backyard. FST’s team walks the ground, knows the requirements of local agencies, HOA guidelines, and even what the city inspector or local architect means when they call for a “stable, compactable aggregate” or a “clean masonry sand.”
We don’t just deliver; our material experts consult directly with you, helping select the aggregate that balances performance, aesthetics, and budget for Chula Vista’s microclimates and evolving ordinances.
A Legacy of Excellence
From Main Street revitalizations to never-ending home improvements, FST’s touch is quietly present all across the South Bay. We invest in meticulous processing, strict quality control, and green practices that protect both your project and the Chula Vista environment.
Partner with us, and every load delivered is a promise kept: competitive pricing, uncompromising consistency, and material that is, frankly, overbuilt for the job.
Unmatched Customer Service: From Dispatch to Jobsite
When your crews are on a tight schedule, maybe you need a rush order for site prep near East H Street or a series of morning drops in Otay Lakes, you want a supplier who responds like a member of your team, not a distant, faceless company. FST Sand & Gravel’s sales and dispatch experts are specialists in local logistics. We know the fastest routes to avoid that notorious Palomar Street traffic and can coordinate deliveries to align with the “Chula Vista sun-up” workday.
The FST team supports your project from takeoff to final completion, nailing down the right material specification and providing timely, reliable delivery.
