Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in South Bend, WA

Washington Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in South Bend, WA. Order online by the ton or the yard and a dump truck brings it to your site.

Start with 5/8 minus, the crushed surfacing top course this state builds drives and pads on. The coast side of the Olympic Peninsula gets rain in volume, so what you put down has to shed water, not hold it.

Materials for South Bend Projects

Base and driveway surfacing carries most of the work here, and 5/8 minus leads it. That is crushed rock with the fines left in, so it packs hard and sheds water instead of soaking it up.

Under it goes 1 1/4 Minus, the crushed surfacing base course. Bigger top size, fewer fines, so it carries load and stays workable on soft wet ground.

For a finished drive, Driveway Gravel covers long rural approaches and equipment parking. Walkway Gravel, a 1/4 minus, packs tight underfoot for garden paths and side yards.

Washed stone handles everything that has to drain. Drain Rock, sold as 7/8 clean, keeps its voids in footing drains and French drains where a perched water table sits on till.

3/4" Crushed Stone backfills trenches and surrounds pipe. RipRap armours shorelines, streambanks and culvert outfalls, and Railroad Ballast goes under rail spurs and heavy equipment pads.

Sand and soil round out an order. Washed Sand mixes concrete and beds pipe, Mason Sand takes mortar and stucco, and Fill Dirt raises grade before a granular course goes down.

For planting, Top Soil repairs lawns and grades out settlement, Garden Soil fills raised beds, and Shredded Mulch covers beds and tree rings.

Rounded stone finishes a yard. Washington River Rock lines dry creek beds and splash pads, Large River Rock holds swales and bank toes, and Natural Pea Gravel suits play areas and dog runs.

Ground and Conditions in South Bend

Water is the whole story on the Olympic Peninsula and the Pacific coast. The coast and the west-facing valleys take 100 to 170 inches of rain a year, so the question is never whether water arrives, but where it goes.

Ground that is already saturated will not hold a base course without a drainage layer under it. Put washed stone below, then build your 5/8 minus on top of that.

Soil across this part of the state runs thin and stony over uplifted marine rock on the slopes, deep organic forest soil in the valleys, and sand, peat and tidal silt along the outer coast and the bays. Peat and silt move under load, so plan for it.

Erosion comes from sheer rainfall on steep, thin-soiled slopes, streambank scour in rivers that rise fast, and surf and storm surge on the shorelines. Riprap and large round rock are the answer where a smaller stone would be carried off.

The reliable dry window is mid to late summer. The two-day soil stabilization rule for western Washington runs October 1 through April 30, and that is the practical limit on open grade.

Winters stay mild, so temperature rarely stops work. What stops work is how wet it is.

Footing depth is set by the county or city building department.
