Order Gravel, Stone and Soil in Fountain Hill, AR

For gravel and aggregate delivery in Fountain Hill, AR, start with the ground. Sandy loam sits over dense clay across the West Gulf Coastal Plain, so water soaks in, perches, then runs sideways.

Materials for Fountain Hill Projects

Decorative rock carries a lot of yards here. Beds, borders, dry creek beds and ground cover all want a rounded stone that stays put and reads well against sandy ground.

Arkansas River Rock is the standard choice for beds and dry creek beds. It comes washed out of river deposits, so it is rounded and smooth underfoot.

Large River Rock suits heavier decorative work and light bank protection where a bigger rounded stone is wanted.

3/8" Natural Pea Gravel covers walkways, play areas and dog runs. Arkansas yards usually get it in brown or beige.

For a drive or a pad, the base comes first. SB-2 Base is the dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up under a roller.

Engineers write the same material as Class 7 base.

Finish a drive with Driveway Gravel, or top a compacted base with #57 Limestone for a clean, washed surface that drains.

For drainage, Drain Rock handles French drains, dry wells and downspout runs. Screenings bed pavers and flagstone and fill the joints.

Soil and sand round out a project. Top Soil takes lawns and bed prep, Washed Sand beds and levels, and Shredded Mulch holds moisture through a summer.

Ground and Conditions in Fountain Hill

The soil here is deep, acid sandy loam and sandy clay over unconsolidated sand, gravel, clay and marl. Water moves through the sand quickly, then slows at the clay beneath it.

That perched water is what an under-built base has to survive. A pad or drive needs enough compacted base to spread the load before the subgrade softens.

Bare sand also cuts and gullies fast under Gulf rainfall. Thunderstorm runoff scours drive shoulders and pipe outlets, which is why rip rap and drainage stone earn their place on slopes and culvert ends.

Work runs all year in this part of Arkansas. Winter and spring rain on sandy clay is the real limit, and a long wet spell keeps hauling ground soft.

Freezes are short and shallow across south Arkansas, so wet ground matters far more than frost depth. The Arkansas residential code has each jurisdiction set its own frost line and requires exterior footings at least 12 inches below undisturbed ground.
