I needed 3 yards of top soil and that's what I got! Right on time and right where I asked it to be placed (Order# 2041).

One cubic yard of this sand covers about 324 square feet at a 1 inch depth, and most mortar or joint work only needs 1 to 2 inches. For a small patio or paver project, figure your square footage, decide your depth, and order in full cubic yard increments since partial yards are rarely worth the delivery trip.

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.

Complete Your Outdoor Project

Sand pairs naturally with crushed gravel as a base layer under pavers, though many Pullman builders now use clean chip stone over sand for bedding since it drains better and does not pump under freeze thaw cycles. If you are mixing mortar for stonework, you will also want cement on hand before the load arrives.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Pullman's silt loam subsoil holds moisture longer than sandy soils, so if you're setting pavers, do not skip a compacted base layer under your sand bedding, the sand alone will not stop settling in wet spring months. Many builders here are switching to chip stone under pavers instead of sand because it does not pump moisture up through joints during freeze thaw, which matters given the region's spring runoff and May frost dates.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Time hardscape and mortar work for the window between last frost around May 5 and first frost around Oct 5. Mortar cures poorly in cold soil, and sand bedding laid too early in spring can shift once ground thaw finishes settling. Waiting a couple extra weeks after the official last frost date gives soil temperatures time to stabilize before you set stone.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

If your project uses both mortar sand and a paver base, order them as separate calculated quantities rather than one blended guess, since mortar sand and bedding material serve different jobs and mixing the two wastes material. Buying both in one delivery trip saves a second trip charge and keeps your project timeline tighter, especially with Pullman's limited hardscape season.

Working With Sand in Pullman

Pullman sits at 2,513 feet with silt loam soils that hold water and turn heavy when wet, which is exactly why sand matters for drainage in joints and bedding here. With a last frost around May 5 and first frost by Oct 5, most hardscape and mortar work happens in that window before ground temperatures work against you. People building patios or walkways near the WSU campus and Martin Stadium area often need a clean, uniform sand base rather than the native silt loam, which does not compact predictably. This sand's fine, consistent grain is what makes mortar workable in that climate swing.

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

What is this sand actually used for in a home project here?

It is mainly used for mixing mortar, filling paver joints, and as a pool base. It is finer and more uniform than concrete sand, which is what makes mortar workable and gives paver joints a clean, tight fill instead of a gritty, uneven one.

Answer

How many cubic yards do I need for my patio joints?

One cubic yard covers about 324 square feet at a 1 inch depth, but joint filling uses far less volume than your total patio area, since you are only filling gaps between pavers, not covering the whole surface. Measure joint width and depth to get an accurate estimate.

Answer

When is the best time to do mortar or paver work in Pullman?

Spring through fall, after the last frost around May 5 and before the first frost around Oct 5. Working outside that window risks poor mortar cure and sand bedding that shifts once the ground fully thaws or refreezes.

Answer

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

The truck places your load on a hard, accessible surface like a driveway, scheduled at checkout with no need to be home for a specific window. Just make sure the drop spot is clear and reachable for a delivery truck ahead of time.

Answer

Should I use sand or chip stone under my pavers?

Sand has traditionally been used as paver bedding, but many builders are shifting to clean chip stone because it drains better and does not pump moisture through joints during freeze thaw cycles. Sand still works well for mortar mixing and joint filling where its fine, uniform texture matters most.
