The type matters. We see jobs go sideways when people use the wrong dirt. Here's how to call it correctly.
The most common dirt we sell. Clean, unscreened fill for backfilling foundations, raising elevation, grading yards, and filling holes. Heavy demand after Hurricanes Laura and Delta.
Heavy clay that compacts tight and stays nearly impermeable. Use it for pond liners, levee cores, and any project where you need to keep water out or hold it in place.
River batture material from Southwest Louisiana. Used for levee work, general grading, and lot elevation. It's a workhorse fill product we move a lot of around Calcasieu Parish.
Dense fill that compacts firm and holds grade under load. We use it for foundation support, heavy compaction work, and road base. Engineers spec it for FEMA elevation projects in the parish.
Sand and loam mix that drains well but holds enough moisture for grass and plants. We recommend it for lawn establishment, fill-and-grade jobs, and any project where you want both drainage and root support.
Screened dark soil with organic matter. Good structure, no rocks or debris. Use it for sod prep, garden beds, and lawn repairs. Our screened topsoil goes down cleaner than unscreened fill.
| Type | Composition | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Fill Dirt | Unscreened | Backfill, grading, elevation |
| Clay Dirt | Heavy clay | Pond lining, structural pads, moisture barriers |
| Batture Dirt | River sediment | Garden beds, landscaping, topdressing |
| Spillway Dirt | Mixed sand/silt/clay | General fill, yard work, budget option |
| Sandy Loam | Native mix | Lawn establishment, garden beds |
