Materials for Rockport Projects

Decorative rock does the heavy lifting on a lot of properties around here. Beds, dry creek beds and ground cover all start with the same question: is the stone rounded or crushed?

Rounded stone moves water and reads as a finished surface. Crushed stone locks together and holds ground in place.

Beds, dry creek beds and ground cover

Washington River Rock is the round rock for dry creek beds, downspout splash pads and planting beds. It handles rain garden armour where water gathers and drops its load.

Large River Rock, the 2 to 8 inch round, armours swales, ditch lines, bank toes and culvert outfalls. A smaller stone gets carried off in a winter storm; this size stays put.

Natural Pea Gravel is washed and rounded, so it stays loose underfoot. Use it for play areas, dog runs, planting beds and pipe bedding, and edge it where it can wander.

Shredded Mulch, sold locally as beauty bark, covers planting beds, tree rings and slopes. Garden Soil is a screened soil and compost blend for raised beds and vegetable gardens.

Driveways, paths and drainage

5/8 minus is the Washington default surfacing course, with the crusher fines left in so it compacts and sheds water. It suits driveways, parking pads and shed slabs.

1 1/4 minus, the crushed surfacing base course, goes below a 5/8 minus top course. The larger top size and fewer fines carry load on soft, wet ground.

Drain Rock, also called 7/8 clean, is washed with no fines. It keeps its voids in footing drains, French drains and infiltration trenches.

3/4" Crushed Stone is the washed counterpart for trench backfill, pipe surround and under-slab drainage. 1/4 minus packs tight for garden paths and side yards.

Ground and Conditions in Rockport

Across the Cascade Range and the east-slope valleys, soil runs thin and stony over volcanic and granitic rock on the slopes. Valley floors carry glacial and river gravel.

That mix punishes an under-built base. Thin soil over rock drains poorly in places and holds water in others, so the granular course has to do the structural work.

Water arrives two ways in this part of the state. The west slope takes heavy annual rain and sheds it fast off steep ground; the east-slope valleys are dry and get snowmelt and cloudburst runoff all at once.

Both patterns scour road shoulders, ditches and culvert outfalls. Armour the outfall with riprap or large round rock, and let a clean stone like drain rock or 3/4" Crushed Stone carry water away instead of trapping it.

The working window in the mountain valleys runs roughly from late spring to early autumn, later at elevation. Snow closes the high ground, so plan ground work around that window.

Frost heave in a gravel drive is a real problem in the high country in a way it is not in the Puget lowland. Frost depth is set by the local building department, so confirm the number for your site.
