Bulk Gravel Delivery to Summersville, WV

West Virginia Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Summersville, WV, from crusher run for a drive to the fines that finish a path. This is Nicholas County ground, steep hillsides over sandstone and shale with narrow creek bottoms.

Flat ground is scarce here and a lot of what looks flat is fill, so the base under a path matters as much as the stone on top.

Ground and Conditions in Summersville

Across the Allegheny Plateau coalfields, a thin base is the failure that shows first. The stone punches down into soft fill, the surface ruts, and every load of fines you add rides on top of a problem instead of fixing it.

Hillside fill that stays saturated will not compact, so wet spells hold work up far more than cold does. Wait for the ground to drain before you build on it.

Rain off long, steep slopes funnels into one creek and one road. A drive takes runoff gathered from well uphill, which puts the weight on culverts and ditches.

This part of the state is landslide country, and the usual triggers are road cuts, sidecast fill and unreclaimed workings. Creek banks scour hard in a flash rise, so bank armour is a real line item here.

Winter brings repeated freeze-thaw, and the worst damage to a drive turns up during the spring thaw. Frost depth is set by the county or municipal building official, so confirm the local figure before you set a footing.

Materials for Summersville Projects

Paths and walkways are where the fines earn their place. Stone Screenings, sold locally as screenings or stone dust, bed pavers and flagstone and pack hard into the joints between them.

Walkway Gravel gives a garden walk or side yard a finer, walkable surface than a drive mix, and it holds up under a wheelbarrow.

For anything built on this ground, the base comes first. Crusher Run, called crush and run around here, is the everyday West Virginia base and drive material.

It is crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up under a roller and holds a grade on a hillside drive. Local quarries sell it by top size, 3/4 inch, 1-1/2 inch and coarser.

Where a subgrade is soft ground or old fill, Class 1 Base is the heavier base course to build up with. Class 1 is the coarser of the two crusher run classes sold in the state, and it carries drives, parking pads and shop floors.

Top Soil finishes the job on lawns and beds over the thin, stony hillside soil, where little grows on its own.

• Screenings: bedding and joints under pavers, flagstone and brick
• Crusher run: compacted base and drive surface that holds a grade
• Class 1 base: heavier base course over soft ground or old fill
• Walkway gravel: paths, garden walks and side yards
• Top soil: lawns, grading and bed prep
