Bulk Aggregates for Erosion Control in Bomont, WV

West Virginia Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Bomont, WV, by the ton. Crusher run is the local base and drive material, crushed stone with the fines left in so it locks up tight and holds a grade.

Ground here is steep and stony, and flat ground is scarce. A drive in a hollow takes runoff gathered from well uphill, so drainage matters as much as the stone itself.

Materials for Bomont Projects

Coarse stone does the heavy work on slope, swale and bank protection around Bomont. Riprap is bank and slope armour for creek and hollow banks, culvert outlets and channel work after a washout.

West Virginia yards sell it by stone size and by weight class. One note: Class 2 is both an aggregate base class and a riprap weight class, so be clear which you mean.

Below that, #4 Crushed Stone is coarse 1-1/2 inch clean stone. It suits trench bottoms, construction entrances, heavy drainage and the first lift over very soft ground.

#57 Limestone is washed 1 inch clean stone for French drains, pipe bedding and concrete work.

For a drive or pad, Crusher Run is the everyday base, sold locally by top size at 3/4 inch, 1-1/2 inch and coarser. Class 1 Base is the heavier base course for soft ground or old fill, and the finer Class 2 crusher run works as a top course over it.

Finer material finishes the job. #8 Limestone is a small washed chip for paver joints and fine drainage.

Stone Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and brick, and fill joints.

Delivery to Bomont and the Surrounding Area

West Virginia Rock Supply delivers bulk aggregate across Bomont and the rest of Clay County, including Clay, Bickmore, Dille, Glen and Indore. You order online, choose a quantity by the ton or by the yard, and pick a delivery date at checkout.

Each product page has a calculator if you want to size the load.

A dump truck tips the load on site in one pile, so the delivery point needs room for the truck to reach it. Steep hollow roads and tight turnaround space are the two things to check before the date you choose.

Ground and Conditions in Bomont

Work around here runs most of the year, held up by long wet spells rather than by cold. Saturated hillside fill will not compact, so it should not be built on until it drains.

That timing decides more of a project than the calendar does. Repeated freeze and thaw all winter shows up worst as spring thaw damage on a drive.

Across the Allegheny Plateau coalfields, this is landslide-prone ground. Mine regolith is the most slide-prone material, and unreclaimed workings, road cuts and sidecast fill are the usual triggers.

Shale and siltstone units are the most susceptible rock. Creek banks also scour hard in a flash rise.

Rain off long, steep slopes funnels into one creek and one road. That means a drive takes runoff gathered from well uphill, and culverts and ditches decide where it goes.

Old mine workings add their own discharges, and acid mine drainage has left streams in this part of the state running acid, which is hard on metal pipe and on anything set in the water.
