1 Ton Covers 100 to 150 Square Feet

Detailed Spec sheet for the blend is given below.



The recreational use of an Italian Bocce Ball Court provides an excellent way to spend afternoons and evenings having back yard fun with family and friends.
This Wet Climate Rain Country blend is made up of Decomposed Granite 1/4"" Minus is blended with premium quality marine composted crushed oyster shell flour and washed concrete sand. We use a higher percentage of oyster flour in this blend than in our Dry Climate Blends.
This produces a good draining but still results in the typical traditionally Italian bocce ball court. This mixture is installed over a layer standard 3/8"" minus decomposed granite to a depth of 1-1/2 to 3 inches, which equals 1 ton of blended material per 100 to 150 square feet.
The role that oyster flour plays in bocce court surface mixtures is to keep the decomposed granite from becoming extremely hard and un-workable for grooming. The oyster flour keep the decomposed granite from completely binding together. Through the normal course of play; ruts, troughs and material displacement takes place. Our decomposed granite oyster flour blend is in traditional Italian bocce ball court surface formula. When groomed out it makes a smooth solid surface to play on. When play is completed it makes for an easy surface to quickly renovate.
We are also able to ship all of the other materials needed for installation and maintenance to you.
Installation and maintenance services are available. Our staff is available with free rental tools to assist you or your contractor with an installation.
Oyster Shell Flour
Oyster shell flour is applied over the top of the finished court surface at the rate of 1/4 to 1/2 pound per square foot resulting in a thin layer of finely crushed oyster shell flour for a very smooth playing surface. However this should not be done during periods of seasonal rain fall since it will be quickly washed into the oyster shell and decomposed granite mixture.
