Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Plainville, IL

Illinois Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Plainville, IL to driveways, pads and building sites across Adams County. CA-6, the dense graded crushed limestone with the fines left in, is the base material this part of Illinois builds on.

You order by the ton or by the yard, size the load with the calculator on each product page, and a dump truck tips it on site.

Materials for Plainville Projects

Start with the base. CA-6 is crushed limestone with the fines left in, and it compacts into a firm, bound surface for a driveway, a parking pad or a shed floor.

It also backfills trenches and builds up grade before a slab.

Driveway Gravel surfaces an existing drive or tops a compacted base, and Fill Dirt raises grade before the base course goes down.

Clean washed stone handles water. CA-7 and CA-11 are the 3/4 inch to 1 inch washed sizes, and both bed pipe, line drainage trenches and sit under concrete flatwork.

Order CA-7 for bedding and French drains, or 3/4" Crushed Stone for the same work in the CA-11 gradation. CA-16 chips are the 3/8 inch washed stone for permeable paver bedding and drainage around tanks.

Sand and soil finish the job. Torpedo sand is the coarse washed sand for concrete and leveling, mason sand is the fine clean sand for mortar and paver joints, and lime screenings bed pavers and flagstone.

Order Washed Sand for concrete work, Lime Screenings for a bedding layer, and Top Soil for lawns and bed prep. Decorative stone covers beds and borders, from Natural Pea Gravel to large river rock.

Ground and Conditions in Plainville

Water is the driver here. Across the Western Illinois loess uplands and the Mississippi border, loess sheds rain and snowmelt fast on slopes and holds it in the flats.

Whatever your site does with water decides what you put under it.

On a slope, runoff concentrates and cuts. That is why a clean washed stone like CA-7 or CA-11 belongs in a drainage trench, where water moves through the voids instead of sitting against a foundation.

On flat ground the water stays. A fines-bearing base like CA-6 belongs on a graded, well-drained subgrade so it can compact and stay put.

Work runs from the spring thaw into late fall here, a little longer than upstate, and bottomland sites wait out spring high water. Frost still lifts drives and walks each spring, and frost depth in this region runs about 36 to 40 inches, set by the local building department.
