What is the difference between crushed stone and Natural Pea Gravel?

Crushed stone is angular rock broken from larger material, sold by size such as 3/4 inch or 3/8 inch. It locks together under load, so it works for drainage beds, trench backfill and drive surfacing. Natural Pea Gravel is rounded stone at about 3/8 inch. It stays loose and moves underfoot, which suits walkways, play areas, dog runs and pipe surround.

Should I order material by the ton or by the yard?

Both work, and the choice is yours at checkout. Bulk aggregate is sold by weight or by volume, and each product page has a calculator to help you size the load. Have your measurements ready before you order, then pick the delivery date that fits your schedule.

Which stone is best for drainage in Kane County?

It depends on how much water you are moving. Drain rock, also called washed rock or clean rock, suits French drains, footing drains, window wells and drywells. For larger drainage beds and trench backfill, 3/4 inch crushed stone is a coarse clean option. Riprap armors wash banks and culvert outlets where flash runoff runs hard.

Order Untreated Base Course in Kane County, UT

Utah Rock Supply brings gravel, stone and aggregate delivery in Kane County, UT to Kanab, Duck Creek Village and Lake Powell. The ground here decides the job before anything else does.

Kane County spans two ground regions, and each one treats water differently.

Untreated base course, the material Utah yards shorten to UTBC, is the compacting layer under drives, pads and slabs. How deep it needs to go depends on what is underneath it.

Ground Conditions Across Kane County

In the canyon country around Kanab and Lake Powell, soil is thin and rocky over slickrock, and much of it is red sandstone sand. Alkaline ground low in organic matter is normal, and some of it carries gypsum.

Monsoon cloudbursts run straight off slickrock and hardpan into the washes. Water that stands on a base is what ruins it, so drainage matters as much as depth.

In the Duck Creek Village country, high plateau valleys sit between about 5,500 and 7,000 feet. Valley floors there are silt and clay, with alluvial fan gravel along the edges and river gravel in the bottoms.

Those valleys freeze hard from late autumn into spring, and the ground stays frozen. Base, drive and flatwork go in between the freezes.

Frost depth is set locally and varies a lot with elevation here. Confirm the figure with the building official before you plan footings.

Erosion follows the same split. Flash flooding and gullying cut the shale badlands and wash banks, while plateau slopes gully and ditch banks scour through spring runoff.

Materials Delivered in Kane County

Untreated base course is the Utah base material.

Section 02056 covers the granular borrow and backfill under and around it. City and county work follows the APWA Utah Chapter manual, where the matching section is 32 11 23.

Those are the words Utah plans and submittals use. Size base by top size, such as 3/4 inch minus or 1 1/2 inch minus.

Natural Pea Gravel, river rock and large river rock cover decorative beds, dry creek beds and swales. Mason sand and washed sand handle block work, paver joints and bedding.

Choosing the Right Material

Garfield County sits on the same high plateau valley ground as the Duck Creek Village side of Kane County. Silt and clay valley floors, alluvial fan gravel at the edges, alkaline ground, and gypsum bearing soils in places.

Because the ground is the same, the base and drainage choices are the same. Nothing about the material changes across that line.

San Juan County is canyon country, the same red sandstone sand and thin rocky soil over slickrock that runs through Kanab and Lake Powell. Deep shale clay that swells wet and cracks dry is part of that ground too.

Where shale clay is under a drive or pad, water standing on it is the problem. A clean drainage layer and a compacted base above it do the work.

For a path or a garden walk, crusher fines give a finer, walkable surface. Driveway gravel surfaces an existing drive or tops a compacted base.
