Terrace ground along the Ohio Valley drains well, while the silt and clay above it and the hillside soils behind it hold water. That difference decides what you put under a drive, a pad or a slab.

Ground and Conditions in Pine Grove

Across the Ohio Valley and Northern Panhandle, the ground splits into two habits. Terrace sand and gravel shed water quickly, and the silt, clay and hillside soils behind them do not.

A thin base over that ground shows up the same way every time. The surface pumps, ruts form along the wheel paths, and the edges break away after a wet spell.

The fix is a base course built to carry the load, with a clean drainage layer where water has nowhere to go. Class 1 base is the heavier course for drives, parking pads, shop floors and slabs, and the layer to build up when the subgrade is soft ground or old fill.

Class 2 base is the finer crusher run class. It gives a tighter surface than the coarse base and works as a top course over a Class 1 base.

Note that Class 2 also names a riprap weight class, so say which one you mean when you specify it.

Slides and slumps on the valley walls and on cut and fill are a real part of the picture here, along with bank scour during high water. Where a slope is moving, drainage stone and bank armour do work that a base course cannot.

The working season is long, held up mainly by wet ground and high water on the river flats in late winter and spring. Frost depth is set by the county or municipal building official, and the nearest published West Virginia figures run about 24 to 30 inches for northern jurisdictions.

Confirm the figure for your own jurisdiction rather than carrying one across a county line.

Materials for Pine Grove Projects

Bedding under pavers and flatwork is where the material choice shows fastest. A paver or a slab sits on what you bed it in, and the wrong bedding stone leaves the surface rocking within a season.

For bedding, Stone Screenings are the crusher fines that set pavers, flagstone and brick and fill the joints between them. Local yards sell them as screenings or stone dust, so ask by those names rather than by a spec number.

Where you want a washed chip instead, #8 Limestone is a small washed stone, roughly 3/8 inch down to 1/4 inch, for paver joints, pipe bedding and a dressing over a compacted base. #89 Crushed Stone covers the same tight-joint and thin-bedding work at a smaller size.

Under the bedding, the base carries everything above it. Crusher 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.

It comes by top size, 3/4 inch, 1-1/2 inch and coarser.

For a heavier base course, Class 1 Base is the coarser of the two crusher run classes and the layer to build up over soft ground or old fill.

Washed Sand is the coarser washed sand for levelling and bedding under slabs and pavers, while Mason Sand is the finer sand for brick and block work and paver joints.

Around the flatwork, #57 Limestone is washed 1 inch clean stone for drainage, French drains, pipe bedding and construction entrances. #4 Crushed Stone is the coarse 1-1/2 inch clean stone for trench bottoms and the first lift over very soft ground.

Delivery to Pine Grove and the Surrounding Area

Quantities are ordered by the ton or by the yard, so the first decision is which one your project is measured in. Each product page has a calculator, and it is the place to size a load before you check out.

You pick a delivery date at checkout, and a dump truck tips the material in one pile at the site. West Virginia Rock Supply delivers across Wetzel County, including New Martinsville, Paden City, Hundred, Smithfield and Reader.

For a drive or a pad, order the base course and the bedding material you need in the same order and have both tipped where the work is. Bulk delivery suits a project that needs a full truckload rather than a few bags.
