3/4 Inch Clean Limestone and Bulk Aggregates for Mount Pleasant, AR

Arkansas Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Mount Pleasant, AR, and the first thing worth doing is sizing the load. Each product page has a calculator, and quantities are ordered by the ton or by the yard.

SB-2 base is the local name for the dense-graded crushed stone that goes under drives and pads here. From there you pick the washed sizes, sand or soil that finish the job.

Materials for Mount Pleasant Projects

Water moves through the rock in this part of the state rather than across it. That makes washed stone the practical starting point for drainage work, French drains, drywells and downspout runs.

Washed sizes carry no fines, so water passes straight through instead of sitting in the stone. #57 Limestone is the workhorse washed size, and it goes into French drains, foundation and pipe drainage, and concrete aggregate.

3/4" Crushed Stone is the same clean idea one size up. It suits drainage beds, construction entrances and drive surfacing where a washed stone with no fines is wanted.

For tighter work, 3/8" Crushed Stone handles fine drainage, pipe bedding and paver joints. Drain Rock covers French drains, dry wells and downspout runs in one clean product.

Where a written standard applies, the same base material is specified as Class 7 base or Class 7 aggregate base course. SB-2 Base is the material behind that name, and it beds pipe as well as it builds a pad.

Above the drainage layer, Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and brick and fill the joints. Washed Sand levels under slabs and pools, and Mason Sand serves brick, block and stone work.

Delivery to Mount Pleasant 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.

Mount Pleasant sits in Izard County, and delivery covers the town and the surrounding area. That includes Melbourne, Horseshoe Bend, Calico Rock, Oxford and Franklin.

Bulk loads are heavy, so it helps to have the drop spot clear before the truck arrives. The driver tips the material and leaves it where it lands.

Ground and Conditions in Mount Pleasant

Across the Ozark Plateaus, the ground is cherty, acid clay loam over limestone and dolostone, with chert gravel through the profile. Rock and rubble sit close to the surface on side slopes.

This is karst country. Sinkholes, springs, losing streams and caves sit under the plateau tops, and water leaves through the rock rather than across it.

The residual clay filling the joints still holds water at the surface after a long rain. That is the reason a proper base matters more here than a deep one, and SB-2 base locks up under a roller once the fines are left in.

Base, drive and patio work runs almost all year. Winter cold snaps and a wet spring are the interruptions, and the late-summer dry spell is the easiest time to get real compaction.

Freezes come in runs from December into February and shallow freeze-thaw lifts loose gravel before spring. No statewide frost figure is published, so confirm the local number before footings go in.
