Order gravel, stone and aggregate delivery in Pike County, OH. Ohio Rock Supply sells bulk material online by the ton or the yard. Build your load with the calculator, pick a delivery date, and a dump truck brings it to your site. Start with 304 limestone, the standard Ohio base stone for drives, pads and shed floors. The ground here is mostly unglaciated hills with thin to moderately deep soils, so a solid compacted base matters.

Materials Delivered in Pike County

We stock the Ohio base, washed stone, sand, soil and decorative families.

304 limestone and 411 limestone

304 limestone, also called #304 limestone or #304 stone, is the base course for drives, pads and pavement. It is the first load on most jobs here. 411 limestone, or #411 stone, tops a drive or beds pavers.

Order 304 limestone first. Then cap it with driveway gravel or 411 limestone once it compacts.

Washed stone, sand and soil

Clean stone goes by number here: #67 stone, #89 stone and 3/8 inch stone for fine work. 3/4 inch crushed stone covers drainage beds and entrances.

For sand, use mason sand for brick and block work and paver joints. Washed sand levels and beds under slabs. Soil and mulch round out a build: garden soil for raised beds, fill dirt for grading and low spots, and shredded mulch for beds and tree rings.

Decorative stone finishes the yard. River rock and large river rock build dry creek beds and borders. Natural Pea Gravel suits play areas and walkways.

Choosing the Right Material

Pick by what the ground does, not by looks. A drive needs a compacted base before any surface stone. Wet spots need clean stone, not more fines. Bedding work needs the fine end.

Neighbours differ from Pike County in useful ways. Highland County and Adams County sit in Southwest Ohio river hills and old till uplands. Their uplands carry old, deeply weathered silty glacial soils with a dense, slow-draining subsoil.

Ross County shares the Southeast and southern Ohio hill country zone. Its ground is much like Pike County's: unglaciated hills, thin to moderately deep soils, clayey slope debris, and sand and gravel in the flat river bottoms. Compare typical projects there instead of soil.

Ground Conditions Across Pike County

Start with water. Steep slopes shed heavy rain fast into narrow valleys. That runoff scours ditches and culverts, and low bottoms flood.

Soils here are mostly unglaciated hills with thin to moderately deep soils weathered from sandstone, shale and coal-bearing rock. Hillsides carry clayey slope debris. The flat river bottoms hold sand, gravel and silt.

Erosion follows the same pattern. Landslides and slumps happen on steep hillsides of clayey slope debris and soft red shale after heavy or prolonged rain. Stream banks scour in the narrow valleys.

Timing matters. Long wet spells saturate hillsides and set off slips. Cutting, filling and driveway work on slopes goes best in drier weather. The season runs from spring into late fall.

Winters bring repeated freeze-thaw, which pries weathered rock apart and heaves wet clayey soil on cut slopes and on drives built into hillsides. Frost depth is set by each local building department. Confirm the local figure before digging footings or posts. Then plan base depth and drainage around it.
