3/8 Inch Crushed Stone for Patios in Wellsville, UT

Utah Rock Supply sells gravel and aggregate delivery in Wellsville, UT, to contractors and homeowners working on the same short season. If you are bedding a patio, a walkway or a slab, the material under the surface decides how the finished work holds up.

Untreated base course, which Utah yards and crews shorten to UTBC, is the compacting base for that work. Around it you need clean stone, sand and fines that suit Cache Valley ground.

Ground and Conditions in Wellsville

Across the Cache Valley and the Bear River country, the old lake floor is deep silt and clay. Water moves through that ground slowly, and the water table sits high under much of the valley floor.

Flatwork over clay without a free-draining course beneath it has nowhere for meltwater to go. Spring snowmelt off the Wellsville range is the peak water, and it arrives while the ground is still cold.

Frost sits in the valley floor well into spring and heaves gravel drives and field roads. Frost depth is set by each jurisdiction, and these colder northern valleys can call for more than the 30 inches used in the Salt Lake valley, so confirm the figure locally.

Alkaline ground is the other constant here. New lots are often stripped to clay subsoil, which is why imported screened topsoil is the usual start for a lawn.

Materials for Wellsville Projects

Bedding under pavers and flatwork is where the choice of material shows first. The surface you see rests on what you put below it, and a bedding layer that will not drain or will not hold grade takes the whole patio with it.

Start with Road Base, sold here as untreated base course or UTBC.

Order it by top size, 3/4 inch minus or 1 1/2 inch minus.

Crusher Fines, also called screenings or chat, are the bedding layer itself. A crusher fines path or patio setting is a standard Intermountain West detail, and fines bind and hold up in dry ground better than loose stone.

Washed Sand, or concrete sand, is the other bedding option, used for leveling under pavers and slabs and for mixing. Mason Sand covers brick and block work, paver joints and play sand.

For drainage beside that work, Drain Rock is the washed stone for French drains, footing and foundation drains, window wells and downspout runs. Utah yards say washed rock about as often as drain rock.

Where a patio meets a border or a dry creek bed, Wasatch Cobble covers decorative beds, park strips and mow strips. Large River Rock suits heavier decorative work and slope cover where runoff would move a smaller stone.

Delivery to Wellsville and the Surrounding Area

You order online, choose a quantity by the ton or by the yard, and pick a delivery date at checkout. A dump truck then tips the load on site in one pile.

Choosing between tons and yards is the first decision. Each product page has a calculator, and it is the simplest way to size a load before you order.

Wellsville sits in Cache County, and delivery covers the surrounding towns, including Logan, Smithfield, Hyrum, Providence and Hyde Park. Bulk loads arrive by dump truck, so the drop point needs room for the truck to reach it.
