3/4 Inch Clean Limestone Delivery for Lake Village, AR

Arkansas Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Lake Village, AR. The ground here is flat Delta clay that holds water, so a pad or drive starts with fill and sub-base before any surface stone goes down.

SB-2 base is the Arkansas name for that base course. Order it by the ton or the yard and a dump truck tips it on your site.

Delivery to Lake Village and the Surrounding Area

Order online and pick your quantity by the ton or by the yard. Each product page has a calculator if you want to size the load before checkout.

Choose a delivery date at checkout and a dump truck tips the material in one pile at your site. Lake Village sits in Chicot County, and delivery covers the surrounding area, including Dermott and Eudora.

Have the drop spot clear before the truck arrives. Bulk loads are heavy, and soft ground will not hold a truck any better than it holds a drive.

Materials for Lake Village Projects

Raising grade is the first job on most Delta lots. Fill dirt builds a pad up out of wet ground, and SB-2 base goes on top of it as the compacted layer under a drive, a parking pad, or a shed floor.

SB-2 base is a dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up under a roller. Engineers and Arkansas cities write the same material into street and parking standards as Class 7 base.

Ask for it by that name when you are working to a written spec.

For a driveway, start with Fill Dirt to build the grade, then cap it with SB-2 Base. Driveway Gravel surfaces an existing drive or tops a compacted base on a county-road property.

For drainage, #57 Limestone is a washed stone for French drains, foundation and pipe drainage, and a clean top over a compacted base. 3/4" Crushed Stone has no fines and suits drainage beds and construction entrances.

For flatwork, Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and brick, and fill the joints. Washed Sand beds and levels under slabs and pools.

Ground and Conditions in Lake Village

Across the Mississippi Alluvial Plain the ground is deep alluvial silt loam, silty clay and heavy clay, the buckshot and gumbo the Delta is known for. Sandier natural levee ridges and older terraces sit above it.

Flat ground, a high water table and clay that barely takes water mean rain stands where it falls. Field ditches and bayous drain slowly, and backwater can hold water for days.

That is why an under-built base fails here. A thin layer of base stone over wet clay pumps and ruts, and no surface stone fixes it.

Build the pad up with fill first, then compact SB-2 base over dry ground.

Work runs all year. Wet winter and spring ground is the real constraint, and the midsummer dry spell that shrinks and cracks the clay is the best window for base work.

Winters are short and mild, and frost is shallow, but saturated clay will rut a drive deeply with no frost involved at all.

Erosion follows the same pattern. Bare cropland silt sheets off in a storm, ditch and bayou banks slough, and a slope that loses its cover keeps losing it.

Rip rap armors banks, slopes, culvert outlets and ditch checks where a rounded stone will not hold.

Questions from Lake Village Buyers

What is the best base under pavers in Lake Village?

Screenings bed the pavers and fill the joints, but they need something under them. SB-2 base is the compacted layer beneath, and it holds up on Delta clay because the fines let it lock together.

Build the grade up with fill first if the ground is low or wet, then compact the base before the bedding sand or screenings go down.
