Bulk Aggregates for Drainage in Newton, WV

For gravel and aggregate delivery in Newton, WV, West Virginia Rock Supply keeps the order simple: you buy by the ton, you pick a delivery date, and a truck tips the load. Crusher run is the base this ground asks for.

So is washed stone, because water moves fast off the slopes here.

Newton sits in Roane County, on ground that sheds rain hard and holds it poorly. Washed stone, French drains, drywells and downspout runs are how you get that water away from a drive, a pad or a foundation.

Materials for Newton Projects

Start with the clean, washed stone. Water runs through it instead of sitting in it, which is what a French drain, a drywell or a downspout run needs to work at all.

#57 Limestone is a washed 1 inch clean stone. Use it for French drains, pipe bedding, concrete work and a construction entrance that has to stay firm in wet weather.

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

Down at the fine end, #8 Limestone is a small washed chip, roughly 3/8 inch down to 1/4 inch. It beds pipe, fills paver joints and dresses over a compacted base.

#89 Crushed Stone goes tighter still, for thin bedding and narrow joints.

Where a trench bottom is soft or a slope needs armouring, go coarse. #4 Crushed Stone is 1-1/2 inch clean stone for construction entrances, trench bottoms and heavy drainage.

Then the base material. Crusher run, also called crush and run, is crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up tight under a roller and holds a grade on a hillside drive.

Crusher Run takes a drive, a parking pad or a shop floor. Where the subgrade is soft ground or old fill, start with Class 1 Base, the heavier base course.

Ground and Conditions in Newton

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

Hollows collect colluvium, and the narrow bottoms stay wet longer than the ground above them.

Plan around a long wet spell rather than frost. Work runs from spring into late fall, and saturated clay-rich soil will not compact while it holds water.

Build the base on ground that has drained.

That is why drainage material goes in before surfacing. Clean washed stone under a downspout run or a French drain moves water off the slope instead of letting it sit against a base.
