Bulk Aggregates near Mount Storm, WV, 26739

Material Selection by Project Type

• Driveways: Crusher run compacts well and forms a solid base. A double lift process with base and wearing course can extend driveway life.
• Drainage: Crushed Stone, like our #57, allows water to move freely. Do not use material with fines near foundations or in French drains.
• Patios and walkways: Use compacted crushed stone as a base layer, then add Natural Pea Gravel or sand as a setting bed. This prevents shifting and drainage issues.
• Landscape beds and soil work: Decorative stone or mulch works well for top coverage. Top soil or garden soil provides nutrients for new plantings.

Local Conditions That Affect Material Choice

Mount Storm sits in a mountainous region of Grant County. Many properties have steep slopes and rocky soils that drain quickly.

Freeze-thaw cycles are common in winter. This can cause unsealed driveways to soften. Crusher run or angular stone handles this better than rounded gravel.

In lower, flatter areas, soil may hold moisture longer. Using clean stone for drainage and a compacted base for driveways helps prevent settling.

Delivery and Access in ZIP 26739 of Mount Storm

We deliver bulk materials directly to your site. Our trucks can access most long rural driveways, but tight urban lots may require advance planning.

Soft ground after rain can limit truck access. We recommend a firm, level drop area near the driveway. Avoid overhead branches or wires that might interfere with the truck.

Turnaround space is important for larger deliveries. If your driveway is narrow, let us know so we can arrange a suitable drop location.
