A good paver project starts before the first paver goes down.

J&R Paver Sand can be used as a 1-inch base beneath pavers and patio stones, or to stabilize and fill hardscape projects. It’s harvested from creek beds in the Missouri Ozarks and will not decay.

Planning a patio or walkway? Measure first, then use J&R’s calculator to estimate the bags you’ll need: https://zurl.co/3tZqC

Around here, “family-owned” isn’t a slogan. It’s how the work gets done.

John and Silvana Bryan founded J&R in Ava, Missouri, in 2014. Today, their family-owned and operated aggregate plant and bagging facility serves construction and landscaping projects big and small.

When you buy materials for a project, do you look first at the product, the people behind it—or both?

After a hard rain, water will always find the low spot. The right rock helps give it somewhere better to go.
