How a drainage gravel project goes

1. Plan the areaMeasure the drainage area and stake the perimeter. Plan for 3-4 inches of compacted gravel for most Orlando residential projects.
2. Excavate & prepDig 4-6 inches below grade. For Orlando clay soil add a layer of geotextile fabric to prevent the gravel from sinking.
3. Lay base courseSpread 2-3 inches of crushed stone base. Compact with a plate compactor in passes.

5. Edge & finishInstall steel or stone edging to keep the material from migrating. Walk the surface to settle any high spots.

Drainage gravel in Orlando's climate

Picking the right material for a drainage gravel project in Orlando comes down to how the climate treats it. Subtropical humidity with heavy seasonal rain. Drainage capacity matters more than freeze tolerance, and limestone-based aggregates are widely available. For drainage gravel work specifically, that means choosing material that handles local moisture and traffic loads without re-dressing every season.

The small market profile of Orlando also shapes how a project runs. Most jobs are residential, with the occasional school or municipal project. Truck access is usually wide and turnarounds run fast.
