Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Amagon, AR

Arkansas Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Amagon, AR, and the timing that matters here is ground water, not frost. This part of the Delta sits flat on heavy clay, and winter and spring rain stands where it falls.

Plan base work for the midsummer dry spell, when the clay shrinks and cracks. If you are prepping beds, grading a lawn or building a pad up out of the wet, screened topsoil, garden soil and fill are the loads to start with.

SB-2 base goes under anything that takes traffic.

Materials for Amagon Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most lots here, so the soil products lead. Top Soil is screened, which is what buyers around here ask for, and it goes down over graded ground before seed or sod.

Garden Soil is blended for raised beds and vegetable plots, where you are building planting depth rather than covering a lawn. Fill Dirt is the bulk material for raising low ground and building a pad up before any base course goes on top.

Once the pad is set, base and drainage take over. SB-2 base is the standard Arkansas base: a dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up under a roller.

Cities and engineers write the same material into their standards as Class 7 base when you are working to a written spec.

For water, #57 Limestone is the washed size for French drains, foundation and pipe drainage and a clean top over compacted base. Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and brick, and fill the joints.

Ground and Conditions in Amagon

Amagon sits in Jackson County on the Mississippi Alluvial Plain, where the ground is deep alluvial silt loam and heavy clay. Across the Delta, rain stands where it falls because the clay barely takes water.

Field ditches and bayous drain slowly, and backwater can hold water for days. On a building pad or a drive, that means the base has to shed water rather than sit in it, so a clean washed layer under the surface makes the difference.

Erosion shows up as sheet loss off bare ground and sloughing on ditch and bayou banks. Bare soil left through a Delta thunderstorm will move, so mulch beds and seed graded ground instead of leaving it open.

Work runs all year here. Wet winter and spring ground is the real constraint, since saturated clay ruts deeply under a loaded truck with no frost involved at all.

The dry spell that cracks the clay is the window for base work.
