“Finished our first paver patio project outside Winfield this fall and used mason sand from West Virginia Rock Supply to fill the joints between the pavers. Swept in easy with a push broom and a little water set it right where it needed to be. Half a ton was more than enough for a patio that size, with plenty left over for touch ups.”

Hillside springs and steep hollows call for drainage work that catches seepage before it reaches a finished area. Mason Sand belongs after that site work, providing a fine washed material for mortar, stucco, and grouting. It has a smooth feel that also works well in sand boxes or on volleyball courts.
Keep the path of water separate from the paver installation, particularly where rain moves across shale slopes. A properly prepared base goes beneath the paver work before Mason Sand is placed as the fine bedding material. It may also be used in interlocking paver joints. This approach keeps the sand in the role it is made for while drainage piping and supporting materials handle the conditions above a hollow driveway or along a hillside.

Common Uses
Mortar & Stucco Mixing
For mortar, stucco, and grout, mason sand provides a fine aggregate with uniform particles. It makes a smooth mix that spreads evenly and helps masonry materials adhere.
Setting Pavers
Mason sand can form the bedding layer under pavers and fill the gaps between interlocking units. Fine grains create a level surface and settle throughout the joints.
Sandboxes & Play Areas
Washed mason sand has a soft, fine texture for children's sandbox and play-area use. Washing removes sharp material and impurities, leaving sand that feels comfortable on hands and feet.
Volleyball Courts & Recreation
For volleyball court surfacing, mason sand creates a soft, uniform layer for barefoot play. Its fine texture provides a consistent court surface for recreation.
Why Choose Mason Sand
Fine, Even Feel
Thorough washing and fine grading give mason sand a smooth, uniform texture. It feels comfortable to handle and is useful for mortar and finish applications.
Washed Material
Washing takes clay, silt, and organic debris out of mason sand. The resulting material is suited to mortar work and recreation surfaces.
Even Grain Gradation
Mason sand is graded with consistent particle sizing for mortar, leveling work, and recreation surfaces. This helps mixes and surface layers handle predictably.
Recreation Areas
Mason sand provides a clean, soft layer for sandboxes, playgrounds, and sports courts. Its fine texture suits areas intended for play.

Grandkids' sandbox needed a bit more
Filled a sandbox for the grandkids in the backyard in Poca with mason sand, figured a half ton would be plenty. Ended up needing another few hundred pounds to get it deep enough. Soft and clean, no rocks at all.

Half a ton was plenty for joints

Chimney repointed before winter sets in
Needed a fine sand for repointing a stone chimney on my in-laws' house outside Sissonville, so I grabbed a ton and a half of mason sand from West Virginia Rock Supply. Mixed clean with no clumps or debris, and the mortar troweled on smooth. Chimney looks solid heading into another Kanawha Valley winter.

No clumping even on humid days
Mix mortar for stone veneer jobs all over the Chapmanville area and mason sand quality matters more than people think, too many fines and it won't hold right. This batch was clean and consistent, three tons for a fireplace surround job that took most of a week. Workability was good the whole time, no clumping even on the humid days.
