West Virginia Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Lyburn, WV. Order online by the ton or by the yard, and a dump truck tips the load on your site.

Start with crusher run for a base, then bed the flatwork. Ground here is steep and stony, so the base carries the patio.

Ground and Conditions in Lyburn

Flat ground is scarce around Lyburn. Much of what is flat is fill, and fill on a hillside moves when it stays wet.

A thin base shows its failure fast on ground like that. The pavers rock, joints open, and water gets under the slab and stays there.

The fix is a thicker compacted base and a drainage layer, not a thicker paver. Build the base course first, then bed on top of it.

Rain off long, steep slopes funnels into one creek and one road. A patio cut into a bank takes runoff gathered from well uphill, so plan where that water leaves.

Work runs most of the year here, held up by long wet spells rather than by cold. Saturated hillside fill will not compact, so let it drain before you build on it.

Freeze and thaw repeat all winter, and the worst damage to flatwork shows up during the spring thaw. Footing depth is set by the county or municipal building official, so confirm the local figure.

Materials for Lyburn Projects

Bedding decides how a patio performs. The layer under the pavers spreads the load, holds the grade and lets water move.

Choose it for the surface going on top.

Stone screenings, also called stone dust, are the standard bedding for pavers, flagstone and brick. The fines pack tight and lock the units in place.

Joints get filled with the same material. Order Stone Screenings for the bedding layer.

Washed sand is the coarser sand, and it beds and levels under slabs and pavers. Mason sand is finer, for brick and block work and paver joints.

Both are sold by the yard. See Washed Sand and Mason Sand.

Below the bedding, you need crusher run. Crushed stone with the fines left in, it locks up tight under a roller and holds a grade.

West Virginia quarries sell it by top size: 3/4 inch, 1-1/2 inch and coarser.

Class 1 base is the heavier base course, and it is the layer to build up when the subgrade is soft ground or old fill. Class 2 is the finer crusher run class, used as a top course over a Class 1 base.

Order Class 1 Base for the lower layer and Crusher Run above it.

For drainage beside a patio, #8 limestone is the small washed chip, roughly 3/8 inch down to 1/4 inch. It suits tight spots, pipe bedding and a dressing over a compacted base.

#57 limestone is the 1 inch clean stone for French drains and pipe bedding. Order #8 Limestone or #57 Limestone.

Rounded stone finishes the edges. Natural Pea Gravel fills around patio edges and walkways, and river rock covers beds and borders.

Questions About Gravel and Stone in Lyburn

What gravel is best for a driveway in Lyburn?

Crusher run is the base for a driveway here. It is crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up tight and holds a grade on a hillside drive.

Where the subgrade is soft ground or old fill, start with Class 1 base and top it with the finer Class 2. For the wearing surface, driveway gravel works over a compacted base.
