Buy Fill Dirt in Troy, WV

West Virginia Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Troy, WV, from crusher run for a drive to fill dirt for a grade that needs lifting. If you are building up ground for a lawn, a garden bed or a slab pad, the soil products are where the job starts.

This is hill country, and thin stony ground on the slopes will not grow much on its own. Fill and topsoil fix that before anything else goes down.

Materials for Troy Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most Troy jobs. Fill dirt raises a low spot, backfills behind a wall or closes a washout, and it goes down before any base course sits on top.

Topsoil covers that fill where grass or beds will go, and garden soil fills raised beds and planting holes.

For a drive or a parking pad, crusher run is the local base 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.

Class 1 base is the heavier course under drives, pads and slabs, and the layer to build up when the subgrade is soft ground or old fill.

Washed stone handles water. #57 limestone is a 1 inch clean stone for drainage, French drains, pipe bedding and construction entrances.

#8 limestone is a small washed chip for paver joints, pipe bedding and fine drainage. Riprap is bank and slope armour for a creek bank or a culvert outlet.

Screenings bed pavers and flagstone and fill the joints.

Sand and decorative stone round out a load. Mason Sand works brick and block, paver joints and play boxes, and Washed Sand levels and beds under slabs and pavers.

Ground and Conditions in Troy

Start with where the water goes. Rain and snowmelt run off these hills into narrow bottoms, and the ground holds it because the soil is clay rich.

A base job stops when the ground is saturated, not when it freezes.

Across the North central plateau and western hills, the slopes are shale, siltstone and sandstone with acid stony residuum on top. That is why a lawn or bed over bare hillside ground struggles.

Fill and topsoil give roots something to work in.

Slope work carries the erosion risk here. The region sees some of the highest landslide rates in the state, mostly on slopes over about 14 degrees, and creek bank scour after heavy rain does the rest.

Riprap protects a bank or a culvert outlet, and clean stone moves water instead of holding it.

Work runs from spring into late fall. Winter brings repeated freeze and thaw, and spring thaw is when a gravel drive shows what its base is worth.
