Materials for Bechtelsville Projects

This is landscape country as much as driveway country. Decorative rock, planting beds, dry creek beds and ground cover carry a lot of the work around Bechtelsville, and the right stone makes those jobs hold up.

For beds and borders, River Rock gives you a clean rounded cover that stays put. For heavier decorative and erosion work, Large River Rock builds dry creek beds that move runoff instead of letting it pool. Both read well against the stone and clay ground here.

Walkways and garden paths want a finer, walkable surface. Walkway Gravel is made for that, and 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel is rounded rather than crushed, so it stays loose underfoot and works in play areas too.

Under patios, walkways and dry creek beds, the base is what carries the load. 2A Modified compacts hard and is the standard base stone in this market. Where you need water to move instead of sitting, 2B Stone is clean washed stone with no fines.

Ground and Conditions in Bechtelsville

The ground here is folded bedrock. Long sandstone ridges hold thin, stony soils, and the valleys are floored by shale or by limestone and dolomite that weather to clay. A base laid on that clay without enough stone will pump and rut.

Rain and snowmelt run off the steep ridge slopes into the valleys. In the limestone and dolomite valleys, runoff concentrated from roofs, gutters and drives can open sinkholes, so send roof water away from the house and keep it moving.

Runoff from those slopes scours roadside ditches, culvert outlets and gravel drives, and stream banks cut back during heavy rain and snowmelt. Rip rap by its R-number, with R-4 for ditches and larger sizes for banks, is how that armor is sold locally.

Base, driveway and paver work runs from spring, once the ground has thawed and dried, into late fall. Base stone should not go down on frozen, soft or muddy ground. Cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw cycles that heave and break up a thin base or one that holds water.
