Bulk Material Delivery in Walkerton, VA

Looking for gravel and aggregate delivery in Walkerton, VA? Virginia Rock Supply drops bulk loads of 21A, washed stone, sand and soil at drives, pads and job sites across King and Queen County. The ground here is old sea and river sediment, sandy in spots and wet in others, so the right stone matters more than the volume.

One job comes up often on the Middle Peninsula: holding slopes, swales and banks against runoff and tidal water.

Materials for Walkerton Projects

Water causes most of the trouble around Walkerton. Flat, low ground gives storm runoff nowhere to go, so the fix is coarse stone placed where water moves. Start with the heaviest sizes and work down.

• RipRap armors slope faces, ditch banks and culvert outlets against fast runoff and wave action along tidal creeks.
• Railroad Ballast is heavy, open-graded stone for hard standing, track beds and severe drainage where nothing fine should sit.
• #4 Crushed Stone handles heavy drainage, construction entrances and trench bottoms.
• #57 Stone is the standard washed size, about 3/4 inch, for French drains, driveway topping and concrete aggregate. Many Virginia suppliers simply call it 3/4 inch stone.
• #8 Crushed Stone is finer washed stone for pipe bedding, paver joints and porous backfill behind walls.

For the base under a drive or pad. Where you want a coarser mix that drains better but packs less tightly, order 21B. For fine leveling under flatwork or paver bedding, use Screenings.

Ground and Conditions in Walkerton

Hard freezes are short here, so crews pour and grade through most of the winter. What stops work is water: long wet spells, summer thunderstorms, and the tropical storms and nor'easters that arrive late summer into fall.

That timing should shape what you order. On a low lot that holds water, build the grade up with Fill Dirt before any 21A goes down, and give the pad a slope so runoff has a direction. A wet subgrade will not compact, and 21A over soft ground just pumps.

Where a swale or ditch bank keeps washing out, line it with coarse stone instead of soil. RipRap and #4 Crushed Stone stay put where sand and silt move. Behind a wall, backfill with #8 Crushed Stone so water passes through rather than pushing on the wall.
