Rip Rap and Bulk Aggregates for Bella Vista, AR

Arkansas Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Bella Vista, AR, by the ton. If you are building a driveway or a pad, SB-2 base is the material this market builds on.

It packs down hard and stays put.

Much of Bella Vista sits on cherty clay loam over limestone, with rock close to the surface on side slopes. That shapes what material you need and where it can go.

Materials for Bella Vista Projects

Coarse stone does the heavy work on slopes, swales and creek banks here. Rounded or angular, the right size decides whether a bank holds through a hard spring rain.

Start with the biggest stone and work down.

RipRap is the armor for bank and slope work. It goes on creek banks, culvert outlets and ditch checks where moving water would otherwise cut the ground out from under you.

#4 Crushed Stone handles heavy drainage and trench bottoms. It also stabilizes soft ground where a truck or trailer has to cross.

#57 Limestone is the washed size for French drains, foundation and pipe drainage, and a clean top over a compacted base. It carries water instead of holding it.

3/4" Crushed Stone is a washed stone with no fines. Use it in drainage beds, on construction entrances and anywhere you want water to move.

For a compacted surface, SB-2 Base is the dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in. It locks up under a roller.

Local street and parking standards usually write the same material as Class 7 base.

Ground and Conditions in Bella Vista

Base, drive and patio work runs almost all year across the Ozark Plateaus. Winter cold snaps and a wet spring are the interruptions, and the late-summer dry spell is the easiest time to get real compaction.

Water leaves this ground through the rock rather than across it. Sinkholes, fractured limestone and losing streams take runoff underground fast, while clay filling the joints holds water at the surface after a long rain.

That is why SB-2 base goes on ground built up out of the wet, not just on top of it. On the steep hollow slopes, heavy spring rain scours drive shoulders, culvert outlets and creek banks.

RipRap on those banks and culvert outlets absorbs the hit. Freezes come in runs from December into February, and shallow freeze-thaw lifts loose gravel before spring, so an unbound surface needs attention after a hard winter.
