Pea Gravel, Stone and Soil Delivery in Bohannon, VA

Flat, low ground gives water nowhere to run in Bohannon. Heavy rain ponds on drives and pads, and storm tides push water back up the tidal creeks. Virginia Rock Supply delivers gravel and aggregate delivery in Bohannon, VA, starting with 21A for the base and washed stone for the water.

We stock the sizes this ground calls for. Order by the ton, and we bring it to your site in Mathews County.

Materials for Bohannon Projects

Drainage drives every material choice here. Water sits on low lots, so you build a base that packs hard and a drainage layer that moves water away. Start with the coarse end and work down.

21A is the standard Virginia driveway base. Use it under drives, parking pads, and shed or patio bases. It holds up when the ground below stays wet.

21B is the coarser, lower-fines base. It drains a little better than 21A but packs less tightly, so it suits drives and pads where you want water to move.

For the drainage itself, #57 stone is the workhorse. It runs about 3/4 inch, washed and clean, and it fills French drains, drywells, and downspout runs. Virginia suppliers often call this same stone 3/4 inch stone.

Go finer where the space is tight. #8 crushed stone handles pipe bedding, paver joints, and porous backfill behind walls. Screenings pack flat for paver and flagstone bedding and fine leveling under flatwork.

Finish a drive with Driveway Gravel over a compacted 21A base. For a finer, walkable surface on paths, use Walkway Gravel.

Ground and Conditions in Bohannon

This is Tidewater and Coastal Plain ground: layers of sand, silt, and clay laid down as old sea and river sediment, on flat, low land. Sandy spots drain fast. Clayey, marshy low ground stays wet.

That split decides your base depth. On a wet lot, dig out the soft material and build up with 21A in lifts, compacting each one. Skip that step and the drive pumps and ruts after every storm.

Hard freezes are short here, so work runs through most of the winter. Long wet spells and the late-summer to fall tropical storm season are what hold jobs up, especially on low lots that hold water. Time a delivery around the wet stretches, not the cold.

Near the Bay and the tidal rivers, waves and storm tides wear at shorelines, and runoff carries loose sandy soil off bare ground and ditch banks. Riprap armors slopes, ditch banks, and culvert outlets against that pull.

Delivery to Bohannon and the Surrounding Area

Order online and pick your material by the ton or the yard. Bulk delivery to a site in Bohannon is straightforward: we bring the load to your driveway or pad and drop it where you want it.

We cover Bohannon and the rest of Mathews County, including Mathews, Cardinal, Cobbs Creek, Diggs, and Foster. Lead time depends on the material and the weather, so plan around the wet season when the ground is soft.

Measure the job and use the calculator to size the load. A driveway base and a French drain trench take very different tonnage, and getting the number right saves a second trip.
