Delivery to Jumping Branch and the Surrounding Area

You order online and choose a quantity by the ton or by the yard. Each product page has a calculator if you want to size the load before checkout.

Pick a delivery date at checkout and a dump truck tips the material in one pile at the site. Bulk loads go to addresses in Jumping Branch and across Summers County, including Hinton, Forest Hill, Meadow Creek, Nimitz and Pence Springs.

Narrow hollow roads and long gravel drives are common here, so it helps to know where the pile can sit before the truck arrives. The load is tipped where the truck can reach, and the rest is your call.

Materials for Jumping Branch Projects

Decorative rock and ground cover do a lot of work on sloped yards here. Rounded stone stays put on a bank better than angular stone, and it reads as a bed edge or a dry creek bed rather than a pile of fill.

River Rock is the rounded stone for beds, borders and dry creek beds. Large River Rock is the bigger rounded stone for dry creek beds, swale bottoms and heavier decorative work.

3/8" Natural Pea Gravel is small rounded stone for walkways, play areas, patio infill and light drainage. Shredded Mulch knits together on a grade and stays put better than nuggets, which matters on a hillside bed.

For a driveway, start with Crusher Run, the local base and drive material. Crushed stone with the fines left in locks up tight and holds a grade on a hillside drive.

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

For a patio, Stone Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and brick and fill the joints. Washed Sand is the coarser washed sand for levelling and bedding under slabs and pavers.

For a drain, #57 Limestone is washed one inch clean stone for French drains, pipe bedding and construction entrances. #8 Limestone is a small washed chip for paver joints, pipe bedding and fine drainage.

Ground and Conditions in Jumping Branch

Across the Allegheny Plateau coalfields the ground is steep hillsides of acid, stony residuum over sandstone, shale and coal measures. Deep colluvium sits in the hollows and flat ground is scarce.

Much of what is flat is fill, and fill that has not drained will not compact. Building a base on saturated hillside fill is how a pad or drive starts moving.

This is the most landslide-prone ground in the state. Mine regolith is the most slide-prone material, and shale and siltstone units are the most susceptible rock.

Creek banks scour hard in a flash rise.

Rain off long, steep slopes funnels into one creek and one road, so a drive takes runoff gathered from well uphill. Culverts and ditches decide where that water goes.

Old mine workings add their own discharges, and acid mine drainage has left hundreds of miles of stream running acid. That is hard on metal pipe and on anything set in the water.

Work runs most of the year here, held up by long wet spells rather than by cold. Repeated freeze-thaw all winter means the worst damage to a drive shows up during the spring thaw.

Order Crusher Run and Decorative Stone in Jumping Branch

Crusher run is the local base and drive material for this ground, and it holds a grade where thinner material will not. Rounded decorative stone handles the beds and dry creek beds on the same slope.
