Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Grantsburg, IN

If you are building a driveway, a parking pad or a shed base in Grantsburg, gravel and aggregate delivery in Grantsburg, IN starts with the base. Indiana Rock Supply sells bulk #53 stone, washed stone, sand and soil, delivered by the ton. In this part of Crawford County the ground is thin and silty over rock, so a driveway holds up only as well as the base built under it.

Get the base right and the surface holds for years. Skip it and you are reworking the same ruts every spring.

Materials for Grantsburg Projects

Most jobs here are driveways. That means a dense graded base first, then a top course that packs tight under tires. Here is what we load most for Grantsburg addresses.

• #53 stone is the standard Indiana base. It has fines that pack hard and carries driveways, parking pads, shed bases and the base under pavers and slabs.
• #73 stone, also called 73 stone or crusher run, is a finer dense graded stone. Use it to top and resurface a drive, a parking area or a shoulder when you want a tight, smooth-packing surface.
• Driveway Gravel is what most Indiana yards call driveway stone. It surfaces an existing drive or tops a compacted #53 base.
• #8 Stone, also called 8 stone or #8 crushed limestone, is a clean single-size stone.
• Stone Screenings are limestone screenings for paver and flagstone bedding and leveling under patios and walkways.

Ground and Conditions in Grantsburg

Water drives every material decision here. Rain runs off steep slopes fast and collects quickly in the narrow valleys below.

On the karst plain, water drains into sinkholes and caves. Runoff aimed at a sinkhole can wash out fill or open a collapse, so never push your drainage into one. Send it to daylight instead.

Ridgetop silty soils often have a dense fragipan that holds water near the surface. If your subgrade stays soft, dig out the wet material and build up with #53 stone in lifts rather than piling it on.

Bare steep slopes gully quickly, and shale-rich slopes in the Crawford Upland are prone to landslides. Rip rap armor at a culvert outlet or ditch bank holds that ground better than loose fill.

Winters are milder than in northern Indiana, but repeated freeze-thaw still heaves gravel drives and softens clay subgrades. Frost depth runs shallower than up north, and your exact footing depth is set by the county or city building department, so do not carry a northern figure down here.

Base and driveway work runs best from late spring through fall. In wet winter and spring weather clay turns slick and steep, unpaved drives rut, and material you place washes out before it ever packs.
