Bulk Material Delivery in Buckhannon, WV

Looking for gravel and aggregate delivery in Buckhannon, WV? West Virginia Rock Supply brings bulk stone, sand and soil to your site, and the answer to most driveway questions here starts with crusher run.

This is hill country, so a drive or a building pad has to shed water before it holds up. The material you put down matters as much as how the ground under it behaves.

Materials for Buckhannon Projects

Steep ground, swales and creek banks are what drive material choice around Buckhannon. Coarse, angular stone is what holds a slope and lets water move instead of cutting.

Start at the coarse end. Riprap is bank and slope armour, sized for creek banks, culvert outlets and toe protection under a slipping fill.

#4 Crushed Stone is a 1-1/2 inch clean stone, angular and open, for trench bottoms, heavy drainage and the first lift over very soft ground.

For a drainage run that needs a smaller clean stone, #57 Limestone is the 1 inch washed size West Virginia yards list for French drains, pipe bedding and construction entrances.

#67 Stone is the 3/4 inch clean washed stone, for drainage beds and bedding where #57 is a shade too big.

When a drive or pad needs a tight, compacted surface rather than open drainage, Crusher Run is the material to order. It is crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up and holds a grade on a hillside drive.

Under that, where the subgrade is soft ground or old fill, Class 1 Base is the heavier base course. Class 2 is the finer crusher run class, used as a top course over a Class 1 base.

For decorative work, Large River Rock suits dry creek beds and swale bottoms, and River Rock handles beds, borders and lighter dry creek work.

Ground and Conditions in Buckhannon

Across the North central plateau and western hills, this is rolling to steep dissected hill country on shale, siltstone and sandstone. Slopes carry acid, stony soil and the hollows collect colluvium.

That ground sheds water fast into narrow bottoms, and spring rain and snowmelt on saturated clay-rich soil is when a drive shows what its base is worth. Landslides run about 3.6 per square mile in this part of the state, mostly on slopes over about 14 degrees.

Creek bank scour after heavy rain does the rest, which is why coarse stone on banks and swales earns its place. Work runs from spring into late fall, and a long wet spell, not frost, is usually what stops a base job.

This ground holds water and cannot be compacted while it is saturated. Time a delivery for a dry stretch and the material goes down the way it should.
