Materials for Bryn Mawr Projects

Start with soil and base, then pick your surface. Most Bryn Mawr projects need a graded, compacted layer before anything pretty goes down.

Soil and Fill

Set grade first. Top Soil is screened for lawns and final grading, with stones and roots taken out. Garden Soil feeds raised beds and planting areas. Use Fill Dirt to raise low spots and backfill before base or topsoil goes on top.

Base Stone

2A Modified is the standard Pennsylvania base, crushed stone with the fines left in so it packs hard. 2B Stone is clean washed stone with no fines, so water moves through it and it stays loose.

Sand and Bedding

Mason Sand and Washed Sand handle mortar, paver joints and bedding under slabs. For paver and flagstone bedding, Screenings pack firm underfoot.

Ground and Conditions in Bryn Mawr

Rain drives everything here. Heavy summer storms and spring rain run off roofs, gutters and drives, and that water has to go somewhere.

This is Southeastern Piedmont ground. Uplands are loamy soils over schist and gneiss, lowlands turn to red shale and sandstone, and limestone valleys weather to heavy clay. Near the Delaware River the ground is loose sand and gravel instead of rock.

Over limestone, concentrated runoff can open sinkholes. Route downspouts and driveway drainage away from the foundation and into clean stone, not into bare soil.

Storm runoff scours stream banks and washes out ditches, culvert outlets and sloped gravel drives. Armor those spots with RipRap or line them with clean stone so water moves instead of cutting.

Winters bring repeated freeze-thaw cycles. A thin or poorly drained base can heave and break up, so build the base to the depth your municipality sets. Frost depth runs about 30 to 36 inches locally.

Timing matters. Base, driveway and paver work runs from spring, once the ground has thawed and dried, into late fall. Do not put base stone down on frozen, soft or muddy ground.

Delivery to Bryn Mawr and the Surrounding Area

Bulk material arrives by dump truck and gets tipped at the drop point you choose. Have that spot clear before the truck shows up, with room to back in and swing the bed.

Order online. Choose your quantity by the ton or yard, size the load with the calculator, and pick a delivery date at checkout. If you are not sure how much you need, the calculator settles it.

Know what is under the drop. Soft, wet ground can take the weight badly, so pick a firm spot or lay down something the truck can sit on.

Pennsylvania Rock Supply delivers across Delaware County, including Upper Darby, Haverford, Chester, Drexel Hill and Springfield.

Questions About Ordering in Bryn Mawr

Can I order material by the ton for delivery in Bryn Mawr?

Yes. Order online by the ton or by the yard, whichever suits the material and the job. Use the calculator to size the load from your area and depth, then choose a delivery date at checkout. A dump truck brings the material to your site and tips it where you want it. If you are unsure of the quantity, start with the calculator rather than guessing.

What stone should I use for drainage in Bryn Mawr?

Use clean stone that water passes through. 2B Stone is the usual pick for French drains, downspout runs and drainage behind retaining walls, and #57 Stone does the same job at a similar size. Clean stone has no fines, so it never packs hard. For a bed of fines under pavers, Screenings are the opposite job entirely.
