We don't run a pugmill. We run a fleet. T&C Materials sources cement stabilized sand from every major Houston producer and gets it on your jobsite — same-day or scheduled, any spec, any volume, anywhere from Conroe to Sugar Land.
The big producers run plants. We run trucks. That difference is why we can match any spec, source from the closest plant to your jobsite, and get a load moving while a competitor is still pulling up your file.
Active relationships with every major Houston stabilized sand producer — we pull from whichever plant is closest, fastest, and best priced for your spec.
Order by 11 AM for same-day delivery on most loads. Scheduled multi-truck jobs dispatched continuously to keep your crew moving.
Tandem trucks haul up to 15 tons, end dumps up to 24 tons. Right-sized loads for tight residential lots or open commercial jobsites.
From Montgomery County south to Pearland, west to Katy, east to Baytown. If your jobsite is inside the Houston metro, we cover it.
Stabilized sand isn't one product. It's a family of mix designs, each engineered for a different job condition. Tell us what your engineer or municipality requires — we'll source it.
1.0 sack of cement per ton of bank sand. Cost-efficient choice for utility bedding, trench backfill, and non-structural fill where some stabilization is required but full strength isn't critical.
1.5 sacks per ton. The most common Houston-area spec. Balances strength and cost for utility work, paver bases, residential foundations, and light commercial site prep over weak or expansive soils.
2.0 sacks per ton. Stiffer, higher-strength mix used for structural backfill, commercial foundations, and most City of Houston water and sewer projects with strict mix-design requirements.
TxDOT Item 400 / Item 402, City of Houston Standard Specification 02317, ASTM-compliant blends, and any custom engineer-specified design. Send us the spec sheet — we'll match it from the closest qualified plant.
Our trucks move through every corner of Greater Houston. We pull from producer plants positioned across the metro, so haul times stay short and material stays fresh — whether your jobsite is inside the loop or 60 miles out.
Don't see your city? Call or text 936-279-2959 with your ZIP. If a truck can reach you, we'll quote you. Our fleet routinely covers areas not listed here, including outlying Brazoria, Galveston, Liberty, Waller, and Chambers County jobsites.
Stabilized sand is a working material on a working jobsite. The buyers we serve don't have time to track down a producer, juggle credit accounts, and wait three days for a delivery window. They have a crew on site and a clock running.
Water, sewer, storm drain, and gas line bedding and backfill. Spec-matched mix designs for City of Houston, MUD districts, and county utility work.
Building pad prep, parking lot sub-base, structural backfill, and stabilized base over soft Gulf Coast subgrades. From small commercial pads to large multi-truck pours.
Paver base, sub-base for concrete slabs, sidewalk and walkway prep, and stabilized base for hardscape installations needing a firm, non-pumping foundation.
Pipe bedding, manhole and structure encasement, sign post setting, fence post setting, and any application calling for a cement-stabilized matrix instead of loose fill.
No portal accounts, no credit applications before we'll talk to you, no three-day callback windows. Direct phone-to-dispatch flow.
936-279-2959 with your spec, tonnage, ZIP, and target window. Two minutes is enough.
We quote material and haul together — the number you get is the number on the invoice.
We load at the producer plant closest to your jobsite to keep haul time short and material fresh.
Same-day on most metro loads. For continuous pours we run trucks back-to-back until the job is done.
If you have a question that isn't here, call or text 936-279-2959. We'd rather answer one question on the phone than have you guess.
Cement stabilized sand is bank sand pre-mixed with portland cement and water at a controlled ratio, typically expressed in sacks of cement per ton of sand. It hardens over time to create a firm, durable base used for utility bedding, pipe backfill, paver bases, foundation prep, and structural fill in areas with weak or expansive soils. It's a workhorse material throughout the Gulf Coast because of the region's clay-heavy subgrades.
The number refers to sacks of cement per ton of bank sand. A 1-sack mix is a lighter blend used for general bedding and backfill. 1.5-sack is the most common Gulf Coast spec, balancing strength and cost for utility work and paver bases. 2-sack is a stiffer mix used where higher compressive strength is required, such as structural backfill or municipal water and sewer projects with strict specs. Always confirm the mix design required by your engineer or municipality.
Cement stabilized sand begins setting within hours of placement once compacted and exposed to moisture, but reaches usable strength in 24 to 72 hours depending on mix design, ambient temperature, and humidity. Full design strength is typically achieved within 7 to 28 days, similar to concrete. Plan delivery so the material is placed and compacted before initial set, ideally within 90 minutes of dispatch in warm weather.
Yes. Orders confirmed by 11:00 AM are typically loaded and dispatched same-day, subject to producer plant availability and traffic. We coordinate pickup at the closest producer plant to your jobsite to keep haul time short and material fresh. For tight schedules, call or text 936-279-2959 and we'll give you a real dispatch window before you commit.
We deliver partial and full loads. Tandem trucks haul up to 15 tons and end dumps haul up to 24 tons per trip. Smaller orders carry a minimum delivery charge to cover truck and operator time. For ongoing or multi-truck jobs, we set up dedicated dispatch so material flows to the jobsite continuously.
Yes. Because we pull from every major Houston stabilized sand producer rather than running a single pugmill, we can source mixes that meet TxDOT Item 400 and Item 402 specifications, City of Houston Standard Specification 02317, and ASTM-compliant blends. Send us your spec sheet or referenced standard and we'll match it from the closest qualified plant.
Delivered price depends on three variables: the mix design, the producer plant nearest your jobsite, and your delivery ZIP. Producer base prices fluctuate with cement and fuel markets. We quote firm delivered pricing — material plus haul — within minutes by phone or text. Call or text 936-279-2959 with your spec, ZIP, and tonnage for a live quote.
