Material Guide

Not sure what
you need?

Start with your job, not the material name. Every material does one thing well — and other things poorly. Match the two before you order.

Building or fixing a driveway

A driveway done right has two layers: a compacted base that doesn't move, then a surface stone that drains and stays put under tires.

Crusher Run #57 Limestone Pea Gravel

Managing drainage or standing water

French drains, drainage swales, and downspout discharge all need washed, fines-free stone so water can move freely through the voids.

#57 Limestone #4 Clean Stone River Rock

Filling, raising grade, or backfill

Structural fill compacts solid under load. Garden areas need organic content. Foundation work needs different material than lawn prep.

Fill Dirt Bank Run Gravel Screened Topsoil

Patio, walkway, or landscape work

Pavers need a setting bed that levels flat and doesn't migrate. Decorative stone areas need something that drains well and looks clean.

What We Stock

Materials for every
stage of the job.

We stock what our crews use — screened right, graded right, available in the quantities you need. Call or text for current pricing and availability.

Screened Topsoil ½" screened · Fine organic By the Ton

Dark, fertile topsoil screened through ½" mesh — minimal stones, no clay clumps. Organic content supports immediate seed germination without amendment. Double-screened means what you get is clean and ready to spread.

  • Lawn establishment & overseeding
  • Garden beds & raised planters
  • Grading finish & low spot repair
  • Erosion control seeding prep
Not a fit for Under concrete, pavers, or structural fill — soft organic material settles under load. Always cap topsoil over structural fill, never replace it.
Fill Dirt Clay-loam · Unscreened By the Ton

Clean clay-loam fill — no organics, no topsoil, no debris. Compacts well with mechanical equipment and holds its grade under structural loads. This is what goes under foundations, slabs, and paved surfaces.

  • Foundation & basement backfill
  • Raising elevation & filling low spots
  • Embankment & building pad construction
  • Sub-base under concrete & asphalt
Not a fit for Within 6" of final grade where vegetation will grow — no organic content means nothing establishes without a topsoil cap.
Crusher Run ¾" minus · Stone fines By the Ton

Mixed crushed stone from ¾" angular pieces down to stone dust fines. When compacted in 4" lifts, the dust and angular edges bind together and lock up hard — harder than asphalt base in most applications. Won't rut, won't migrate.

  • Driveway base & sub-base (4–6" compacted)
  • Parking lot foundation
  • Equipment pads & staging areas
  • Walking paths & low-traffic access roads
Not a fit for French drains or drainage beds — the fines fill the voids and block water. Use #57 or #4 Clean Stone where drainage is the goal.
#57 Limestone ¾" angular · ASTM #57 By the Ton

Three-quarter inch washed angular limestone — the most-ordered material we stock. Sharp edges interlock and stay put under traffic without packing solid. Water moves freely through the stone-to-stone voids, useful for both drainage and surface applications.

  • Driveway surface & parking areas
  • French drains & drainage beds
  • Around foundations & downspouts
  • Septic system cover stone
Not a fit for Where you need material to compact solid or stay smooth underfoot — it's angular and loose by design, and won't give you a firm surface.
Mason Sand Fine washed · ASTM C144 By the Ton

Fine washed sand with consistent grain size, free of silt and organics. Meets ASTM C144 for mortar aggregate. Beds flat under pavers and stone with a ½–1" setting layer that lets you fine-tune level before locking everything in.

  • Paver & flagstone setting bed
  • Mortar & masonry mix aggregate
  • Pipe bedding & trench backfill
  • Sandbox & playground fill
Not a fit for Drainage fill (migrates through coarser stone over time) or load-bearing structural backfill (no compacted bearing capacity on its own).
River Rock 1"–3" smooth · Rounded By the Ton

Naturally tumbled stone in mixed 1–3" sizes — smooth, round, and water-worn. Heavy enough to stay in drainage swales under flow, light enough to move by hand. Looks good wet or dry, the standard for visible drainage features and landscape borders.

  • Landscape beds & borders
  • Dry creek beds & drainage swales
  • Around downspouts & catch basins
  • Decorative mulch alternative
Not a fit for Base or sub-base — rounded stones won't interlock or compact. They shift and roll under load, which is exactly what you don't want under pavers.
Rip Rap 6"–18" angular · Heavy By the Ton

Large angular stone — typically 6 to 18 inches — placed by machine where erosion forces are too strong for smaller material. The mass and angular contact points resist hydraulic force. Often engineer-specified for creek banks and culvert outfalls.

  • Creek & ditch bank stabilization
  • Culvert inlet & outlet protection
  • Steep slope erosion control
  • Retaining wall drainage backing
Not a fit for Decorative use or any area with foot traffic — this is a working material for working conditions. Not for residential landscape beds.
Pea Gravel ⅜" smooth · Rounded By the Ton

Small, smooth, naturally rounded stone — typically ⅜" diameter. Drains fast, stays cool underfoot, and has a visual cleanliness that crusher run doesn't. Comfortable for bare feet and pet paws on warm days.

  • Dog runs & pet areas
  • Patio surfaces & casual pathing
  • Driveway topping layer over packed base
  • Decorative groundcover in beds
Not a fit for Structural base or sub-base under pavers or slabs — round stones can't interlock and will shift under load or freeze-thaw cycles.
#4 Clean Stone 1½" angular · ASTM #4 By the Ton

Washed 1½" crushed stone with no fines — just clean angular rock. The larger stone size and absence of fines means the highest drainage rate we carry. Used where #57 would migrate under pressure or where drainage volume demands more open void space.

  • French drain & dry well fill
  • Leach field cover stone
  • Large-diameter pipe bedding
  • High-volume drainage trenches
Not a fit for Surface dressing or foot-traffic areas — 1½" angular stone is too large and rough for comfortable use, and too prominent for most landscape applications.
Bank Run Gravel Mixed ¾"–fines · As-dug By the Ton

Unprocessed pit-run material as it comes out of the bank — a natural mix of sand, small stones, and fines in varying proportions. The most economical sub-base and fill we carry. Performs well when precise drainage specification isn't required and you need volume at price.

  • Economy driveway base
  • Backfill around drainage pipe
  • Low-traffic road maintenance
  • Utility trench backfill
Not a fit for Tight drainage specifications — the fines will slow water flow. Gradation varies batch to batch since it's unscreened.
Limestone Screenings ¼" minus · Dust fines By the Ton

The fine material left after crushing limestone — powder to ¼" chips. When wet and compacted, screenings pack nearly as hard as concrete and stay that way. The standard setting bed for flagstone and pavers: levels clean, adjusts easily, and won't shift once it sets.

  • Paver & flagstone setting bed
  • Patio & walkway leveling course
  • Compacted path surfacing
  • Driveway dust-control topping layer
Not a fit for Any drainage application — fine particles seal tight under water and compaction. Don't use it where you need water to move through.
Boulders 50–400+ lbs · Natural limestone By the Ton

Natural limestone boulders, individually placed by hand or machine depending on size. No two are the same — the irregular shape and weathered surface are the point. Ranges from manageable accent stones around 50 lbs to statement pieces that need a machine to position.

  • Landscape accent stones & focal points
  • Natural retaining walls & slope stabilization
  • Dry stream beds & water feature edging
  • Property edge markers & driveway borders
Not a fit for Any application that requires material to be spread — boulders are placed individually. Specify approximate size range when ordering so we pull the right stock.

Common Questions

What people
actually ask.

Questions we hear from homeowners, landscapers, and contractors figuring out what they need and how to get it on-site.

Do you deliver to residential addresses?

Yes — we deliver to driveways, yards, and residential job sites throughout Jefferson County and the surrounding metro. We'll need reasonable access for a tri-axle, so give us a heads-up if the approach is tight or if you have a low-clearance entrance. For small residential orders where a full tri-axle isn't practical, call and we'll figure out the right truck size for your driveway.

What's the minimum order for delivery?

Minimum delivery is typically 5 yards or 5 tons depending on material and distance. Call dispatch to confirm — minimums can flex based on distance and what's on the haul schedule for the day.

Can you deliver to a residential driveway or backyard?

Yes — we deliver to driveways, yards, and residential job sites throughout Jefferson County and the metro. We'll need reasonable vehicle access for a tri-axle, so give us a heads-up if your approach is tight or has a low overhang. For small residential orders, call and we'll match the right truck size to your site.

Is material sold by the yard or by the ton? What's the difference?

It depends on the material. Screened topsoil, fill dirt, river rock, and mason sand sell by the cubic yard. Crusher run, #57 limestone, rip rap, and most stone products sell by the ton. The reason: soil-type materials have variable density depending on moisture content, so volume is more consistent. Crushed stone and aggregate have more stable density, so tonnage is more precise. When you call, we'll quote you both if it helps you compare.

How thick should I put down crusher run for a driveway?

For a new driveway, 4–6 inches compacted is the standard. Start with 4" if you have a solid sub-base, 6" if you're building over soft or disturbed ground. Compact in two layers: a 3" base lift, then a 2–3" top lift. Compacting one thick layer all at once doesn't consolidate properly from the bottom. If you're adding crusher run on top of an existing driveway to fix soft spots, 3–4" compacted is usually enough.

How much material do I need to add 10%?

The calculator gives you the base number. For most projects, add 10–15% to that for material lost to compaction, uneven spreading, and edge waste. So if the calculator says 10 tons, order 11–11.5 tons. For trench backfill where compaction is significant (fill dirt or crusher run), go closer to 15–20% over. Better to have a small pile left over than to come up short and pay a second delivery charge.

What's the difference between #57 limestone and #4 clean stone?

#57 is ¾" — smaller, more commonly available, and works for most drainage and driveway applications. #4 clean stone is 1½" — larger with bigger voids, so it drains significantly faster. Use #57 for driveways, French drains around foundations, and septic cover. Use #4 where you need high drainage volume: leach fields, dry wells, and large-diameter pipe bedding. #4 also handles freeze-thaw cycles better in drainage applications because the larger void space doesn't frost-heave the same way.

Can I order a mix of materials in one delivery?

Often yes, depending on what fits in the truck and how close the materials load to the same density. A split load of crusher run and #57 works fine. A split of topsoil and rip rap — less ideal. Call and describe what you need and we'll tell you if it makes sense as one run or two.

Do you do same-day or next-day delivery?

We often do. Call dispatch at (636) 331-5757 and tell us where you are and what you need. Jefferson County deliveries have the best shot at same-day. Further out into the metro, we'll give you an honest read on the schedule. We run 7 days, so weekend deliveries are on the table.

Can I use topsoil to raise my grade?

For a few inches of elevation change around a lawn or garden, yes — topsoil works fine as a finish raise. But for anything structural, under a slab, or for raising more than 6 inches, use fill dirt first and cap it with topsoil at the end. Fill dirt compacts; topsoil doesn't. Building 12 inches of grade with straight topsoil will settle unevenly and cause problems under any hardscape you put on top of it.
