Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Edgerton, OH

Ohio Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Edgerton, OH for two kinds of buyers: contractors building drives and pads, and homeowners fixing a yard one load at a time. Both start in the same place, with the ground under the work. Around Edgerton the subsoil is clay loam and silty clay left by glacial till, so soil and fill decisions come before stone decisions.

For a drive or parking pad, 304 limestone is the base course that carries the load. The finish and the planting beds are where most Edgerton projects spend their attention, and that is where the right soil pays off.

Materials for Edgerton Projects

Most jobs here start with dirt, not stone. If a lawn is thin, or a yard was graded and left bare, the top layer is the problem, not the seed. Screened topsoil gives roots something to hold in above heavy clay, and garden soil goes into raised beds where drainage matters more than volume.

Fill dirt comes first on any lot that needs leveling. It raises low spots and fills old depressions so a base can go down flat. Doing that before you order stone saves you from reworking the same area twice.

Once grades are set, the stone layers stack. Each material below is named the way Ohio suppliers name it.

• 304 Aggregate Base, the 304 limestone that goes under drives, parking pads and shed floors.
• 411 Stone, the 411 limestone topping that packs tight over a 304 base.
• #57 Limestone, clean stone for French drains and drive surfacing.
• Screenings, the limestone screenings used under pavers and patio stone.
• Top Soil and Garden Soil for lawns, beds and planting areas.

Ground and Conditions in Edgerton

Start with water and where it goes. The clayey till under Edgerton drains slowly, so rain and snowmelt sit in the flat swales until ditches or tile carry them off. Sand and gravel in the river valleys drain fast, and the two behave nothing alike under a drive.

On slow ground, drainage is a material choice. A clean stone layer such as #57 limestone or #8 crushed stone moves water instead of holding it, and it belongs under the surface where the water collects. Rip rap along a ditch bank handles the scour that follows a heavy rain, and bare graded soil needs cover before the next storm.

Timing follows the same logic. Frozen or saturated clay will not compact, so base and paver work waits for the ground to thaw and the flats to dry in spring. Cold winters also bring freeze-thaw that heaves wet clay under drives and patios.

Delivery to Edgerton and the Surrounding Area

Bulk material arrives by dump truck. Before the drop, think about where the truck can reach and where you want the pile, because a full load is heavy and spread over a wide area is hard to move later. Clear the gate and mark anything the truck could catch.

Questions About Ordering in Edgerton

Can I order material by the ton for delivery in Edgerton?

Yes. You order by the ton or by the yard, whichever suits the material, and the calculator helps you convert your project area into a quantity. Choose your delivery date at checkout and a dump truck brings the load to your site in Edgerton.

What stone should I use for drainage in Edgerton?

Use clean stone, not a material with fines. #57 limestone is the usual choice for French drains and downspout runs, and #8 crushed stone works where the pipe or joint is tighter. Both let water move through instead of trapping it, which matters on the slow-draining clay around Edgerton.
