Bulk Aggregates for Drainage in Wyoming, RI

Rhode Island Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Wyoming, RI, and the ground here shapes what you order. Deep glacial outwash sand and gravel runs under this part of the South County outwash plain.

Processed gravel is the base material most drives and pads in Rhode Island are built on, and on free draining sand the base is where the work goes.

Materials for Wyoming Projects

Washed stone does the drainage work around a house. It goes into French drains, drywells and downspout runs, and it has to be clean so water moves through it instead of sitting in it.

Rhode Island contractors ask for it as clean or washed stone in an inch size.

Start coarse and work down. Drain Rock is the clean washed stone for French drains, drywells and foundation perimeter drains.

#4 Crushed Stone is the heavy end, for trench bottoms and severe drainage on wet ground.

Mid sizes cover most residential work. #57 Stone suits drywells and concrete aggregate, and 3/4" Crushed Stone handles drainage beds and trench backfill.

3/8" Crushed Stone is the fine end, for pipe bedding and tight paths.

For a drive, Processed Gravel is the compacted base, and Driveway Gravel surfaces an existing drive. Bed pavers and flagstone on Stone Dust, and use Pea Stone for walkways and drip edges.

Ground and Conditions in Wyoming

The working season here opens early, because free draining sand dries out fast after winter. Late summer into October is the tropical season, and the summer months on the shore are when access and staging are most awkward.

Time a delivery around that if the site is tight.

Outwash sand takes water fast. That is why the aquifers under this plain supply drinking water for the region, but it also means a base laid on loose sand can lose its bedding.

Where the ground is low, storm tides push water in and the base has to shed it.

Erosion follows the same pattern across the South County outwash plain and coastal ponds. Storm waves work on barrier beaches and bluffs, salt pond edges breach and overwash, and banks scour after heavy rain.

Armor banks and culvert outlets with RipRap.

Frost is mild for New England, but freeze and thaw still work on the surface. Free draining sand heaves less than till, so the spring problem here is usually a base that has washed or spread rather than one that has lifted.
