Ordered Dirt. Received Dirt. Would Buy Again.

One cubic yard of this sand covers about 324 square feet at a 1 inch depth, and most paver joint or bedding work only needs 1 to 2 inches. For a typical 200 to 300 square foot patio project, one cubic yard usually gets you through the bedding layer, with mortar mixing needing much less. Measure your square footage first, then decide your depth based on whether you are bedding pavers or mixing mortar.

A yard is approximately 27 cubic feet. As a general guideline, one yard of material can cover an area of about 100-160 square feet at a 2-3 inch depth.

Placing an order online was so easy. Delivery was on time. When the driver realized we had a newly poured driveway they erred on the side of caution and opted not ti drive in it. The company even sent me a message explaining that call. Would recommend!

Complete Your Outdoor Project

Most paver jobs pair this sand with a base layer of crushed rock or road base underneath it, and polymeric sand or edge restraints on top to lock everything in place. If you are doing mortar work, you will want portland cement on hand to mix with it. Pool base and joint sand jobs often order a small extra quantity to have on hand for touch ups after the first season of settling.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Mason sand is finer and more uniform than concrete sand, which is what makes it workable for mortar but also means it holds moisture longer after a rain. If you are working in OKC's clay soil areas, keep the sand pile off bare ground and on a tarp or hard surface, otherwise it will pick up clay fines and lose the clean, uniform texture that made you choose it in the first place.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

A common mistake with paver bedding is screeding the sand too deep, over 2 inches invites long term settling, especially once freeze and thaw cycles start working on it between November and April. Keep your bedding layer close to 1 inch and let a compacted base layer underneath do the structural work instead of asking the sand to do it.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Many OKC installers have shifted paver bedding jobs from mason sand to clean chip stone because chip stone does not pump moisture up through paver joints during heavy spring rains the way sand can. If pumping and joint sand loss have been a recurring issue on your patio, consider ordering chip stone for the bedding layer and saving mason sand for mortar mixing where it still performs best.

Working With Sand in Oklahoma City

Oklahoma City sits on clay soil, and clay does not drain the way sand does, which is exactly why mason sand shows up under patios, pool decks, and paver walkways here instead of being asked to do that soil's job. Freeze and thaw cycles between the November and April frost dates can heave a poorly bedded paver surface, and a properly screeded sand base helps absorb that movement. Homeowners near the Oklahoma City National Memorial and through the older clay-heavy neighborhoods often use it for mortar work on brick repairs too. It is a project material, not a soil amendment, and it behaves the same whether you are at 1,201 feet in OKC or anywhere else, the difference here is what it is being asked to sit on top of.

Masonry vs Fill Sand

Masonry sand is washed and finely screened, the right choice for mortar work, paver joints, and sandboxes. Fill sand is coarser and less processed, better suited to leveling, bedding pipe, and filling low spots.

Bedding and Leveling

For pavers, screed a 1 inch sand bed over a compacted base rather than using sand to fix deep grade problems. A thin, even bed locks pavers in place. A thick one shifts underfoot.

Working With Moisture

Slightly damp sand spreads, screeds, and compacts far more easily than bone dry sand, which just flows back into your screed lines. Lightly wetting the pile before you work it saves real effort.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to see the answer

Answer

Is this the same as regular sand from a hardware store bag?

No, this is washed and screened mason sand, finer and more consistent in grain size than the coarser sand sold in most bagged products. That consistency is what makes it workable for mortar and gives paver joints a clean, even fill. Bulk delivery also means you are not hauling dozens of bags for a full patio or pool deck job.

Answer

How much sand do I need for a 250 square foot patio?

At a 1 inch bedding depth, one cubic yard covers about 324 square feet, so a 250 square foot patio would use a bit less than one full cubic yard. Most people round up to a full yard to account for screeding loss and settling, and to have a little left for joint fill touch ups.

Answer

When is the best time to install a paver patio in Oklahoma City?

Spring through fall is the busiest and most practical window here, once you are clear of the last frost around April 1 and before the ground starts cooling toward the November frost date. Working in that window gives the base layers time to settle and compact properly before winter freeze and thaw cycles arrive.

Answer

Where will the sand be placed when it's delivered?

The load is placed wherever you have a clear, hard, and level surface, typically a driveway, since sand piles can shift or sink into grass or soft ground. Let us know at checkout if access is tight or if you need it placed in a specific spot, and have that area cleared before your scheduled delivery.

Answer

Should I use mason sand or chip stone under my pavers?

Mason sand is the traditional choice and still works well, but chip stone has become common for paver bedding because it does not pump or wash out through the joints during heavy rain the way sand can. Mason sand remains the better choice for mortar mixing and pool base work where its fine, uniform texture matters most.
