Landscaping Material Delivered in Marble Falls, AR

Arkansas Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Marble Falls, AR to the job site. SB-2 base is the standard Arkansas base material here: a dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in so it locks up under a roller.

On the thin, stony ground across the Boston Mountains, a pad or drive that starts with SB-2 base holds up far better than one built on bare soil.

Materials for Marble Falls Projects

Decorative rock does the heavy lifting on sloped Ozark ground. Arkansas River Rock, also called river gravel or creek gravel, is rounded and washed out of river deposits, and it works for decorative beds, borders, dry creek beds and splash pads.

Large River Rock takes the same jobs where a heavier stone is wanted, including dry creek beds and light bank protection. Both are rounded stone, so they sit as decorative cover rather than as a compacted base.

For a driveway or a building pad, start with SB-2 base. Cities and engineers write the same material into street, sidewalk and parking standards as Class 7 base, so use that name when you are working to a written spec.

For a patio or a walkway, Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and brick and fill the joints. 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel gives walkways, play areas and dog runs a finer, walkable surface.

For drainage, #57 Limestone and 3/4" Crushed Stone are washed sizes with no fines. They suit French drains, foundation and pipe drainage and construction entrances.

Ground and Conditions in Marble Falls

Across the Boston Mountains the soil is stony, acid silt loam and clay over flat-lying sandstone and shale. Rock benches and ledges sit close to the surface, and the slopes carry loose colluvium.

Ridge soils are thin, and only the foot of a slope carries any depth. An under-built base on that ground moves, because there is little soil to hold it.

Shale beds perch water above the rock, so slopes stay wet and slick while the sandstone above sheds rain straight down the hollow. A steep gravel drive takes water arriving from uphill, not just the rain that falls on it.

Slope length and gradient drive erosion here. Runoff on a steep hollow drive cuts ruts and carries surfacing to the bottom, and saturated shale slopes slump after long rain.

Winter ice and mud on steep drives set the limits on the working season. Grading and compaction go best from late spring through fall, once the slopes have dried out.

Cold by Arkansas standards, with ice storms and repeated freeze-thaw on shaded north-facing slopes. Frost depth is set by the local building official, so ask the county or city official for the number that applies.
