Bulk Aggregates for Patios in Fayetteville, OH

Order gravel and aggregate delivery in Fayetteville, OH online. Ohio Rock Supply sells bulk material by the ton or yard, and a dump truck drops it at your site. Start with 304 limestone, the standard Ohio base stone. Around here the ground runs to old silty soils with a dense subsoil that holds water after rain.

Ground and Conditions in Fayetteville

A paver patio fails from the bottom up. A thin base moves, water sits, and the surface shifts within a season or two. The flat uplands around Fayetteville make that worse, because water perches on the dense subsoil and stays there.

Fix it with a deep, compacted base and a drainage layer that lets water escape. On the steep hillsides toward the Ohio River, clayey till and thin soils over soft shale shed runoff fast, so cuts there need care after long wet spells.

Winters bring repeated freeze-thaw that heaves wet, poorly drained pads. Frost depth runs 30 inches in this part of Ohio, set by each local building department. Schedule base and fill work once the ground has drained.

Materials for Fayetteville Projects

Bedding is where a patio is won or lost. Under pavers and flatwork, the bedding layer levels the surface and locks each unit in place. Get it right and the patio stays flat.

Use screenings for paver and patio bedding. Limestone screenings run from about 1/4 inch down to dust, so they pack tight and hold a screed. For a slab or a patio base, 304 Aggregate Base goes down first, then compacts hard under the bedding.

Set the base with 411 Stone, a topping that packs tight over 304. Under a wall or around a fire pit, Mason Sand beds brick and block and fills paver joints.

Drainage matters as much as bedding. #57 Limestone is the clean stone Ohio suppliers stock most widely, and it works in French drains and behind retaining walls. #8 Crushed Stone handles pipe bedding and paver joints where a finer clean stone fits better.

Finish the yard with Top Soil for lawn and bed prep, or Garden Soil for raised beds. Both sit well over the heavy clay subsoil here, and Shredded Mulch holds moisture through summer heat.

Delivery to Fayetteville and the Surrounding Area

Order online and choose your quantity by the ton or by the yard. Not sure which fits? Size the load with the calculator before you check out. Pick a delivery date at checkout and a dump truck brings the material to your site.

We deliver across Brown County, including Mount Orab, Georgetown, Ripley, Sardinia and Aberdeen. Fayetteville sits in Brown County, and the same ground rules apply across the county: wet uplands, fast-shedding hillsides.

Tell the driver where to drop. A driveway, a side lot or a cleared pad all work. Keep the pile close to the work so you move material once.

Questions About Gravel in Fayetteville

What gravel is best for a driveway in Fayetteville?

Start with 304 limestone as the base, then top it with 411 limestone. The 304 compacts into a hard, stable layer, and the 411 packs tight over it to shed water and hold the surface. Add #57 limestone along the edges where drainage matters most. On the flat uplands, a drained base keeps freeze-thaw from heaving the drive.

How much material will my project need?

Use the calculator on the product page. Enter your measurements and it returns the quantity in tons or yards, so you order the right amount the first time. Have your length, width and planned depth ready before you start. If your project has more than one layer, such as a 304 base under screenings, size each layer separately.
