Order Gravel, Stone and Soil in Medaryville, IN

Indiana Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Medaryville, IN to your site, from a single load of fill to a full driveway build. The base material most jobs here start with is #53 stone, the dense graded stone Indiana crews call for under drives, pads and slabs. On the flat sand and old marsh ground around Medaryville, water sits close to the surface, so what goes under a slab matters as much as what goes on top.

Materials for Medaryville Projects

Most projects around Medaryville begin below grade. Raising a low lot, building a pad or firming up soft ground all start with bulk fill before any finished stone goes down. Order the fill and sub-base first, then top it with the material the surface calls for.

Start with Fill Dirt to raise grade, fill low spots and backfill around foundations. It goes down before a base, and it needs to be compacted in lifts, not dumped in one deep pile. For the structural base over that fill, #53 Stone is the standard Indiana choice. It has fines that lock together and pack hard under a plate compactor or a roller.

Once the base is set, the surface changes with the job:

• #73 Stone for topping and resurfacing a drive, parking area or shoulder where you want a tight, smooth-packing surface.
• Driveway Gravel for surfacing an existing drive or topping a compacted #53 base.
• Drain Rock for French drains, foundation drains and downspout runs where water has nowhere to go on flat ground.
• Top Soil for lawn and bed prep over heavy clay or thin, rocky ground.

For a patio or walkway, Stone Screenings bed and level the pavers over a compacted base. Walkways that stay walkable get Walkway Gravel.

Ground and Conditions in Medaryville

Pulaski County ground is a mix of sand and clay. You get sandy outwash plains and drained former marsh with pockets of muck in the Kankakee basin, plus clay loam till on the ridges between them. Each one behaves differently under a load.

Sand drains fast and compacts well, but it shifts without a binding base over it. Clay and muck hold water and stay soft long after rain. That is why an under-built base fails here: the subgrade moves, and the stone on top follows it. Dig out soft spots and bring in fill before you place #53 stone.

The flat plains and ditched old marsh sit on a high water table, so low ground stays wet after rain and snowmelt. The clay ridges shed water slowly. Long, cold winters with repeated freeze-thaw heave gravel drives on wet or clay ground and soften subgrades at thaw. Base and driveway work runs best from late spring through fall, and frozen ground stops compaction in winter.
