Gravel and Aggregate Delivery in El Dorado, AR

Arkansas Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in El Dorado, AR to driveways, pads and drainage work. SB-2 base leads what we haul here, with washed stone, sand, soil and decorative rock alongside it.

This part of the state sits on sandy loam over clay, so water soaks in, perches and then moves sideways. That shapes what you order for a driveway or a building pad.

Materials for El Dorado Projects

Start with the base. SB-2 base is the dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone that Arkansas crews use under drives, parking pads, shed floors and building pads.

The fines stay in the mix so it locks up under a roller. Class 7 base is the same material under the name engineers and cities write into street, sidewalk and parking standards, so ask for it that way when you are working to a written spec.

SB-2 Base covers both names.

For surfacing, Driveway Gravel tops a compacted base on rural and county-road properties, and Walkway Gravel gives paths and side yards a finer, walkable surface. Crusher Run works the same jobs in a finer dense-graded size.

Washed stone handles everything that has to drain. #57 Limestone is the workhorse size for french drains, foundation and pipe drainage, concrete aggregate and a clean top over a compacted base.

3/4" Crushed Stone goes into drainage beds, construction entrances and drive surfacing where no fines are wanted.

Sand and soil round out a job. Washed Sand beds and levels under slabs and pools, while Mason Sand goes into brick, block and stone work, paver joints and play areas.

Top Soil comes screened for lawns and bed prep, and Garden Soil fills raised beds and vegetable plots.

For decorative work, Arkansas River Rock handles beds, borders and dry creek beds. 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel suits walkways, dog runs and play areas, and Large River Rock takes the heavier decorative and light bank work.

Ground and Conditions in El Dorado

Across the West Gulf Coastal Plain, sandy topsoil sits on a dense clay subsoil. Water soaks through the sand, hits the clay and runs sideways instead of draining away.

Flat ground and slow bayous hold the water table high for days after heavy rain. That is the reason a drive or pad needs a real base course before any surfacing goes down.

Bare sand cuts and gullies quickly under intense Gulf rainfall. Thunderstorm runoff scours drive shoulders and pipe outlets, so a clean washed stone at the outlet matters as much as the pipe itself.

Work runs all year here. Winter and spring rain on sandy clay is the limit, and a long wet spell keeps hauling ground soft, so plan the pad and the base around the wet season rather than against it.

Freezes are short and shallow in south Arkansas, and an ice storm matters far more than frost depth ever will. No statewide frost figure is published; each jurisdiction sets its own frost line, and exterior footings go at least 12 inches below undisturbed ground.
