Mason Sand for Patios in Middle Point, OH

Order gravel and aggregate delivery in Middle Point, OH online. Pick your ton or yard, pick your date, and a dump truck drops it at your site. Ohio Rock Supply stocks 304 limestone, the base stone Ohio crews specify by name.

Flat clay ground here holds water late into spring. That changes what goes under a patio, a pad, or a driveway. Start with the right base and the surface stays put.

Ground and Conditions in Middle Point

This is old lake plain ground: heavy, sticky clay and silt, with low sandy ridges breaking it up. Rain and snowmelt sit on the clay until ditches and field tile move them along. The sandy strips drain faster.

A thin base shows its weakness fast. The clay under it stays wet, the stone pumps, and the pavers or slab settle out of line. Freeze-thaw makes it worse, because wet clay holds water close to the surface and heaves anything set too shallow.

Fix it with depth and drainage, not with a thicker surface layer. Excavate until you hit firm ground, put down a compacted 304 limestone base, and give the water somewhere to go. Set footing depth to whatever your local building department requires and confirm that figure with them.

Timing matters too. Clay flats stay saturated well into spring, so base and driveway work waits until the ground drains and firms. The season then runs into late fall.

Materials for Middle Point Projects

Patio and flatwork jobs live or fail on bedding. Get the layers right and the surface holds its lines for years.

Start with 304 Aggregate Base, the standard Ohio base stone, called 304 limestone or #304 stone. Compact it in lifts under pavers, pads, and asphalt. It carries the load so the bedding above it does not have to.

Bed the pavers in Screenings, also called limestone screenings or stone dust. Fine crushed limestone from about 1/4 inch down to dust packs tight and levels clean. For a slab or a patio base, Washed Sand levels and beds under concrete.

Move water away from the edges. #57 Limestone is the clean stone Ohio suppliers stock most widely, and it suits French drains, downspout runs, and drainage behind a wall. #8 Crushed Stone handles finer drainage, pipe bedding, and paver joints.

Finish the surrounding ground with Top Soil for lawn and bed prep, or Shredded Mulch for beds and tree rings.

Delivery to Middle Point and the Surrounding Area

Order online and choose tons or yards, whichever your numbers are already in. The calculator sizes the load for you, so you order the quantity your project needs instead of guessing at the pile.

Pick a delivery date at checkout and a dump truck brings the material to your site. Middle Point sits in Van Wert County, and delivery reaches Van Wert, Convoy, Ohio City, Willshire, and Venedocia as well.

Have the drop spot clear and reachable before the truck arrives. Bulk stone and sand come off the bed in one pass, so a firm, open area near the work saves you moving material twice.

Size Your Load and Place Your Order

Run your numbers through the calculator first. It converts your area and depth into tons or yards, so the load that arrives matches the job. Then order 304 limestone, screenings, or sand for delivery in Middle Point and the rest of Van Wert County, and pick your date at checkout.
