Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Timbo, AR

If you are planning gravel and aggregate delivery in Timbo, AR, the job usually starts with the ground under it. Arkansas Rock Supply sells bulk material for grading, bed prep and drive work, and SB-2 base is the Arkansas name for the compacted base those jobs sit on.

This part of Stone County sits on cherty, acid clay loam over limestone and dolostone, so what you put down top matters as much as what you put under it.

Materials for Timbo Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most lots here, and that means soil before stone. Screened topsoil goes down where a lawn or a graded slope needs a growing layer over clay and chert.

Garden soil is the richer mix for raised beds, vegetable plots and planting areas. Fill dirt handles the bulk work: raising low ground and building a pad up out of the wet before any base course goes on.

Order Top Soil, Garden Soil or Fill Dirt by the ton or the yard.

Once the grade is right, the base goes in. 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 their standards as Class 7 base. Use SB-2 Base for driveways, parking pads, shed pads and pipe bedding.

Washed stone handles everything that has to move water. #57 limestone is the workhorse size for french drains, foundation and pipe drainage, and a clean top over a compacted base.

It links to #57 Limestone. 3/4 inch clean limestone covers drainage beds, construction entrances and drive surfacing where no fines are wanted.

Sand and decorative stone round out the list. Washed sand beds and levels under slabs and pools, and mason sand serves brick, block, stone work and paver joints.

Natural Pea Gravel and river gravel finish walkways, play areas and dry creek beds.

Ground and Conditions in Timbo

Water here leaves through the rock rather than across it. Across the Ozark Plateaus, sinkholes, fractured limestone and losing streams take runoff underground fast, while the clay filling the joints holds water at the surface after a long rain.

That split matters when you build. A pad that sheds water into a low corner will sit wet long after the rest of the lot has dried.

Steep hollow slopes and flashy streams add the other half of the problem. Heavy spring rain scours drive shoulders, culvert outlets and creek banks, so a drive that carries water off the surface holds up better than one that lets it pond.

Rip rap armors banks, slopes and culvert outlets where a rounded or angular stone has to take that hit.

Base, drive and patio work runs almost all year, with winter cold snaps and a wet spring as the interruptions. The late-summer dry spell is the easiest window to get real compaction.

Freezes come in runs from December into February and shallow freeze-thaw lifts loose gravel and heaves unbound surfaces before spring.
