Choose your material, set the quantity by the ton or yard, and run the calculator if you want to check the load size. Then pick a delivery date at checkout. A dump truck arrives at your site and drops the load where you want it.

Have the drop spot clear before the truck arrives. Bulk stone, soil and fill need room to spread and a firm surface for the truck. For a driveway or pad job in Waterfall, plan the deliveries so the base stone lands after fill and grading are done.

Materials for Waterfall Projects

Raising grade is the first job on most lots around Waterfall. Fill and sub-base come before anything decorative. Fill Dirt brings a low spot up to grade, and 2A modified goes on top as the compacted base under a drive or a building pad.

2A modified, also called modified stone, is the standard Pennsylvania base stone. Crushed stone with the fines left in so it compacts hard. Order 2A Modified for driveways, parking pads and shed or patio bases. Where a pad or drive sits in a wet area, put clean stone under it so water moves. 2B Stone is the 3/4 inch clean stone for that, and for French drains and drainage behind retaining walls.

For the finish, match the material to the job:

• Driveway Gravel to surface an existing drive or top a compacted 2A modified base.
• Screenings, also called stone dust, for paver and flagstone bedding and pipe bedding.
• Top Soil for lawns, final grading and bed prep, screened to take out stones and roots.

Ground and Conditions in Waterfall

Waterfall sits in the Ridge and Valley ground: long sandstone ridges with thin, stony soils, and valleys floored by shale or by limestone and dolomite that weather to clay. In the anthracite fields the ground is broken up by old strip mines and waste piles. Clay valley soil holds water and shifts under load, so a thin base fails fast.

In limestone and dolomite valleys, runoff concentrated from roofs, gutters and drives can open sinkholes. Move that water away from the building and let clean stone do the work. Drain Rock and RipRap handle ditches, culvert outlets and streambanks cut back by heavy rain and snowmelt.

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. Cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw cycles that heave and break up a thin base or one that holds water. Frost depth is commonly about 36 inches, set by each municipality.
