Materials for Glenwood Projects

Coarse stone does the heavy work on slope, swale and bank protection around Glenwood. On the steep hillsides behind the valley floor, water comes down fast and takes soil with it.

Riprap is bank and slope armour. It goes on creek and hollow banks, culvert outlets, the toe of a slipping fill, and channel work after a washout.

West Virginia yards sell it by stone size and by weight class, so state which you need when you order. Riprap weight class is not the same as an aggregate base class.

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

It has no fines, so it stays open and water moves through it.

#57 limestone is washed 1 inch clean stone for French drains, pipe bedding, and construction entrances. #67 stone is the 3/4 inch clean washed size for drainage beds and bedding where #57 runs a shade too big.

#8 limestone runs roughly 3/8 inch down to 1/4 inch. It beds pipe, fills paver joints, and dresses a compacted base.

Drain rock covers French drains, drywells, foundation drains, and downspout runs on ground that sheds water fast.

When a swale or pad needs to lock up tight, crusher run is the material. It is crushed stone with the fines left in, so it holds a grade on a hillside drive.

Class 1 base is the heavier base course under drives, parking pads, shop floors and slabs, and the layer to build up when the subgrade is soft ground or old fill.

Finer sizes finish the work near the house. #8 Limestone beds pipe and fills joints, and Stone Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and brick.

For beds and borders, River Rock and Large River Rock handle decorative work, including dry creek beds.

Delivery to Glenwood and the Surrounding Area

West Virginia Rock Supply delivers bulk material across Glenwood and the rest of Cabell County, including Huntington, Barboursville, Milton, Culloden and Lesage. You order online, choose a quantity by the ton or by the yard, and pick a delivery date at checkout.

A dump truck tips the load in one pile where it can reach on your site. Have the spot clear and firm enough for a loaded truck before that date.

If a slope, soft ground or an overhead line limits access, plan the drop point with that in mind.

Ground and Conditions in Glenwood

This part of the state works a long season. The wet ground and high water of late winter and spring are what hold a delivery up, so timing matters more than temperature.

Across the Ohio Valley and Northern Panhandle, the ground runs from terrace sand, gravel and silt on the flats to steep shale and sandstone hillsides right behind them. The terrace gravel drains well.

The silt and clay above it and the hillside soils do not.

That split drives material choice. On ground that sheds water fast, clean stone like drain rock carries the water away.

On soft or filled ground, Class 1 base builds up the grade before a finer crusher run surface goes on top.

Slides and slumps on valley walls and on cut and fill are the other constant here, along with river bank scour during high water. Coarse stone at a bank toe or in a swale is the practical answer.

Frost depth is set by the county or municipal building official, so confirm the figure locally before you plan footings.
