Materials for Eureka Springs Projects

Drainage is the first question on a lot of ground here. Water leaves through the rock rather than across it, so a French drain, a drywell or a downspout run has to move water down and away before it sits against a foundation.

Washed stone does that work. #57 Limestone is the workhorse size for French drains, foundation and pipe drainage, and a clean top over a compacted base.

3/4" Crushed Stone handles drainage beds, construction entrances and drive surfacing where a washed stone with no fines is wanted.

For finer runs, Drain Rock covers French drains, dry wells, foundation drains and downspout runs. #4 Crushed Stone is the heavy end: trench bottoms, heavy drainage and stabilizing soft ground.

Under all of it sits the base. SB-2 base is the standard Arkansas material, a dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in so it locks up under a roller.

It goes under driveways, parking pads, shed and building pads and pipe bedding. When you are working to a written standard, the same material is written as Class 7 base or Class 7 aggregate base course.

Above the base, Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and brick, fill joints and leave a tight walking surface. Washed Sand beds and levels under slabs and pools, and Top Soil finishes lawns and beds over the cherty ground.

Delivery to Eureka Springs and the Surrounding Area

You order online, choose a quantity by the ton or by the yard, and pick a delivery date at checkout. A dump truck then tips the load on site in one pile.

Arkansas Rock Supply delivers across Eureka Springs and the rest of Carroll County, including Berryville, Green Forest, Oak Grove and Alpena. If your site sits on a county road or a steep hollow drive, that is worth knowing before the truck arrives, because the load is tipped where the truck can safely stop.

Material comes in bulk, so the pile lands where the truck can reach. Plan the drop point with that in mind, then work from the pile.

Ground and Conditions in Eureka Springs

Base, drive and patio work runs almost all year on 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.

The ground itself is cherty, acid clay loam over limestone and dolostone, with chert gravel right through the profile and rock or rubble close to the surface on side slopes. That is why an unbound surface can lift and shift through a run of freezes before spring.

Water is the other half of it. Sinkholes, fractured limestone and losing streams take runoff underground fast, while the residual clay filling the joints holds water at the surface after a long rain.

A drainage layer and a properly built base matter more here than on flat, well-drained ground.

Steep hollow slopes and flashy streams scour drive shoulders and culvert outlets in heavy spring rain. Rip rap armors banks, slopes and culvert outlets where a rounded stone will not hold.
