Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Erbacon, WV

West Virginia Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Erbacon, WV. Crusher run is the base this ground asks for, and the working season here is short.

Base and drive work waits for the ground to thaw and drain in late spring.

Erbacon sits in Webster County, on the Allegheny highlands and the Allegheny Front, where soil is thin and stony and bedrock sits close to the surface on the benches.

Materials for Erbacon Projects

Base and driveway surfacing come first on this ground. Crusher run, also called crush and run, is crushed stone with the fines left in.

It locks up under a roller and holds a grade on a hillside drive. Local quarries sell it by top size, 3/4 inch and coarser.

Class 1 Base is the heavier base course, for drives, parking pads, shop floors and slabs. Build it up when the subgrade is soft ground or old fill.

West Virginia yards sell it as the coarser of the two crusher run classes.

Crusher Run also covers the finer class, sold as Class 2 base. Use it where a drive or pad wants a tighter surface than the coarse base gives, or as a top course over a Class 1 base.

Washed stone handles water. #57 Limestone is 1 inch clean stone for drainage, French drains, pipe bedding and construction entrances.

#8 Limestone is a small washed chip for paver joints, pipe bedding and fine drainage.

For bank and slope armour, Riprap protects creek and hollow banks, culvert outlets and channel work after a washout. Yards sell it by stone size and by weight class.

Sand and soil round out a project. Mason Sand is fine sand for brick and block work, paver joints and play boxes.

Top Soil rebuilds lawns and beds over thin, stony hillside ground.

Ground and Conditions in Erbacon

Rain and deep snowmelt on steep, shallow soil over rock define this part of the state. Water cannot soak in, so it runs.

The Allegheny highlands and the Allegheny Front take more than 60 inches of precipitation a year.

Springs and seeps break out partway down a slope. They will run straight through an undrained base, so a clean stone drainage layer matters as much as the base itself.

Slides and slumps work on slopes over about 17 degrees, in shale and siltstone residuum and in colluvium. Old timber roads and skidder trails add to it.

Mountain streams rise hard and fast and scour banks, culvert outlets and gravel road shoulders.

The working season here is the shortest in West Virginia. Base, drive and paver work waits for the ground to thaw and drain in late spring, and stops earlier in the fall than it does downstate.

Snow cover lasts for weeks at a time on the high benches.

Ground here also freezes early, thaws late and cycles through freeze-thaw well into spring. That cycle is what tears up a thin gravel drive.

Frost depth is set by the county building official, so confirm it locally.
