Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Windham, OH

Ohio Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Windham, OH, from 304 limestone for a new drive to garden soil for a raised bed. Base work here starts with the ground under it: the silty clay loam till across this part of Portage County drains slowly. Order online when you know the material and the quantity.

Materials for Windham Projects

Most orders in this area come down to soil, fill and grading before anything else. If you are leveling a low spot or building up a pad, start with Fill Dirt. It raises the grade so a base course has something firm to sit on.

For lawn and bed prep, Top Soil goes down screened and pulverized. It gives roots a layer to work in over heavy clay subsoil. Garden Soil suits raised beds and planting areas where you want a looser mix, and Shredded Mulch holds moisture in beds and tree rings through summer heat.

Underneath all of that, the base material is 304 limestone. It is the standard Ohio base stone for a driveway, parking pad, shed base and the base course under asphalt. Top a compacted 304 base with 411 limestone and it packs tight for a gravel drive or paver bedding.

Washed stone, sand and decorative rock round out a project. Clean stone is sold by number here rather than by inch size.

Ground and Conditions in Windham

Plan around water first. Rain, snowmelt and heavy storms perch on the dense subsoil layer here instead of draining away, and that water collects in low spots, wetlands and kettle hollows. The knolls and valley outwash nearby drain freely, so two properties a short distance apart can behave very differently.

On the wet ground, that means a drainage layer matters as much as the surface stone. #57 Limestone and #4 Crushed Stone are the clean stone sizes to run for French drains and foundation drains, with Drain Rock behind a wall. Clean stone lets water move instead of trapping it.

Freeze and thaw work against base work too. Cold, snowy winters heave wet till under drives and walks and lift anything set above the frost line. Frost depth runs 38 inches in Summit County and 36 inches or more in Cleveland, set by each local building department.

Timing is part of the job. Snow cover and wet spring ground hold back base work until the soil drains, and the season then runs into late fall. Steep valley sides and stream banks also scour and slip after heavy rain, so RipRap along a ditch bank or culvert outlet protects ground you would otherwise keep repairing.

Delivery to Windham and the Surrounding Area

Bulk material arrives by dump truck and is tipped where you want it. Have the drop spot cleared and reachable before the truck arrives, and keep the pile close to the work so you are not moving stone twice. Windham sits in Portage County, and we deliver here and to Kent, Streetsboro, Aurora, Ravenna and Rootstown.

Ordering is done online. Choose your material, pick a quantity by the ton or by the yard, and size the load with the calculator if you are unsure how much the area needs. Then choose a delivery date at checkout. Working out the quantity yourself is fine, and the calculator is there when you would rather not guess.

Questions from Windham Buyers

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

Yes. Every bulk material on the site can be ordered by the ton or by the yard, and the calculator converts between the two so you can match the quantity to the job. Set your quantity, choose a delivery date, and a dump truck brings it to your site in Windham. Base stone, washed stone, sand, soil and decorative rock all order the same way.

What stone should I use for drainage in Windham?

Clean stone is the answer for drainage, and #57 limestone covers most French drains, downspout runs and foundation drains here. Drop to #4 crushed stone for heavier drainage, trench bottoms and filter stone under rip rap. Use #8 crushed stone for fine work like pipe bedding and paver joints. On ground that drains slowly, keep the stone clean so water can move through it.
