“Between bedding a new culvert pipe under the farm lane and topping a garden walkway, we went through six tons of number 8 stone on our place in Foster. Bagged stone from the hardware store would have cost triple for a fraction of the material, so bulk made more sense once we did the math. The driver squeezed the tandem between the barn and the old stone wall without knocking a single cap off, which took some doing on a lane that tight. Three months in, the bedding hasn't shifted under the tractor, and the walkway stays put even after the dog runs through it chasing the mail truck.”

- Crushed stone
Glacial till and ledge inland can leave little room for water to move below a project, while shore areas may sit on sand. #8 Crushed Stone drains freely because it contains limited fine material, making it useful where a drainage detail, paver area, or concrete mix calls for small crushed stone.
Deep frost and repeated freeze-thaw weather make water control especially important around Rhode Island hardscapes. On a compact lot, place #8 Crushed Stone in the drainage detail that is intended to feed the dry well, rather than expecting the stone to handle the entire drainage plan. Its crushed form can also serve in paver base and joint applications when that role is called for.

Customer Reviews
Tenants noticed the new walkway
Ordered two and a half tons of number 8 for a walkway top layer at a rental property in Johnston. The stone itself spreads smooth and looks sharp against the siding, tenants have already commented on it.

Cleaner mix for the patio pour
Ordered three tons of number 8 stone through Rhode Island Rock Supply to mix concrete for a small patio pour out in Tiverton. It runs cleaner than the aggregate from the last yard I used, less dust kicked up when we loaded the mixer. The batches cured hard without any weak spots, and the leftover pile worked fine as a chip seal topper on the walkway after.

Bulk math beat the hardware store
Between bedding a new culvert pipe under the farm lane and topping a garden walkway, we went through six tons of number 8 stone on our place in Foster. Bagged stone from the hardware store would have cost triple for a fraction of the material, so bulk made more sense once we did the math. The driver squeezed the tandem between the barn and the old stone wall without knocking a single cap off, which took some doing on a lane that tight. Three months in, the bedding hasn't shifted under the tractor, and the walkway stays put even after the dog runs through it chasing the mail truck.

Bedded the new pipe just right
Used two tons of number 8 stone to bed a new drainage pipe under the driveway in Jamestown. Small and even, easy to shovel into the trench by hand, and it settled the pipe nice and level.
