Bulk Material Delivery in Hardy, AR

Need gravel and aggregate delivery in Hardy, AR for a drive, a pad or a drainage run? Arkansas Rock Supply sells bulk material by the ton and delivers it across Sharp County.

Start with SB-2 base if you are building something that has to hold up. If water is the problem, washed stone is where you look first.

Materials for Hardy Projects

Water that disappears into the rock instead of running off it is the whole story on drainage here. That is why washed stone does so much of the work on Hardy jobs, and why the sizes you want are the ones with the fines washed out.

For French drains, drywells and downspout runs, #57 Limestone is the size to start with. It is a clean washed stone, so water moves through the void space instead of sitting in it.

3/4" Crushed Stone does the same job one size down, and it works well for a drainage bed or a construction entrance. It carries no fines, so it will not bind up and hold water.

Where a drain needs a finer stone, Drain Rock covers drywells, foundation drains and downspout runs. If you want a tight, close-bedded fill instead, #89 Crushed Stone is the small washed size for it.

Once the water is handled and you are ready to build up, SB-2 Base is the Arkansas base material. It is a dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in, and it compacts hard.

Engineers and city standards in Arkansas usually write the same material as Class 7 base, so if you are working to a written spec, that is the name to match.

Arkansas River Rock and Large River Rock handle dry creek beds, borders and splash pads. For a walking surface, Walkway Gravel is a finer choice than a drive takes.

Ground and Conditions in Hardy

Base, drive and patio work runs almost all year in this part of the state. Winter cold snaps and a wet spring are the interruptions, and the late-summer dry spell is the easiest time to get real compaction on an unbound surface.

The ground here is cherty, acid clay loam over limestone and dolostone, with chert gravel through the profile and rock close to the surface on side slopes. This is karst country, so sinkholes, springs and losing streams sit under the plateau tops.

Water leaves through the rock rather than across it, and that changes what you order. Runoff drops underground fast through fractured limestone, while the residual clay filling the joints holds water at the surface after a long rain.

A fines-bearing base sitting on that clay will stay soft, which is why SB-2 base goes down over a properly drained subgrade.

Steep hollow slopes and flashy streams scour drive shoulders and culvert outlets in heavy spring rain. Washed stone at the outlet and rip rap on the bank take that energy without washing out.
