Bulk Aggregates for Patios in Hebron, OH

If you are planning a patio, a driveway, or a drainage run, you need gravel and aggregate delivery in Hebron, OH that shows up ready to work. Ohio Rock Supply sells bulk material for exactly those jobs. For most patio and flatwork projects, that starts with 304 limestone. It is the standard base stone in this part of Ohio, and it is what goes under the paver bedding.

Hebron sits on glaciated ground in Licking County, where silty clay loam till drains slowly and water perches on a dense subsoil layer. That changes what you order and how deep you set the base.

Ground and Conditions in Hebron

The failure mode you see on flatwork here is a base that looked fine in dry weather and then moved. Water sits on the dense subsoil under Hebron, so a thin base layer stays wet and soft. Pavers rock, joints open, and the edges settle first.

The fix is a compacted 304 limestone base built in lifts, with a clean stone drainage layer where water has nowhere to go. On sand and gravel knolls and valley outwash, the ground drains freely and the base behaves differently than it does on the till.

Cold, snowy winters bring repeated freeze-thaw that heaves wet till under drives and walks and lifts anything set above the frost line. Frost depth is set by each local building department, so check with yours before you set footings or posts.

Wet spring ground holds back base work until the soil drains, and the season then runs into late fall. Plan your patio pour or paver install around that window.

Materials for Hebron Projects

Patio bedding is the job that decides how a paver or slab surface performs. Order the layers in the right order and the surface stays flat.

304 Aggregate Base, sold here as 304 limestone or #304 stone, is the structural layer.

411 Stone, also called 411 limestone, is the topping and bedding material. Stone up to about 1 inch mixed with fines packs tight over a 304 base, which makes it the right choice under pavers and on a gravel drive surface.

Screenings, or limestone screenings, are the leveling layer. Fine crushed limestone from about 1/4 inch down to dust gives you a firm, dead-flat bed for pavers, patio slabs, and paths.

For drainage and edge work, #57 Limestone is the clean stone Ohio suppliers stock most widely. It handles French drains, downspout runs, and the gravel border behind a retaining wall. #8 Crushed Stone is the smaller clean stone for pipe bedding and paver joints.

Questions About Gravel and Aggregate in Hebron

What gravel is best for a driveway in Hebron?

Start with 304 limestone as the base, since it is the standard Ohio base stone and it compacts into a stable layer over the local clay till. Top it with 411 limestone, which packs tight and holds the surface. If the drive stays wet, add a clean stone drainage layer such as #57 limestone along the low edge.

How much material will my project need?

Use the calculator on the site to size the load. Enter your project area and the depth you plan to build, and it returns the quantity in tons or yards. That saves you from guessing and from a second delivery. Order the figure it gives you at checkout.
