Materials for Rockport Projects

Grading and bed prep start below the surface. Topsoil, garden soil and fill do that work here, and they set up everything you put on top of them.

Fill dirt raises grade before a base course goes down. Order it where a low spot needs lifting and a CA-6 layer will follow.

Top Soil is Illinois prairie topsoil, dark and silty, sold screened for lawns and grading. Garden Soil is a richer mix for raised beds and vegetable plots.

For the base itself, CA-6 is the Illinois base material: dense graded crushed limestone with the fines left in. Use it for driveways, parking pads, shed and garage bases and trench backfill.

Washed stone handles water. CA-7 is 1 inch clean stone with no fines, for bedding under pipe, drainage trenches and concrete flatwork.

3/4" Crushed Stone is the CA-11 size sold alongside it for the same work.

Lime Screenings are crushed limestone fines for paver and flagstone bedding. Washed Sand, sold as torpedo sand, is the coarse washed sand for concrete and leveling.

Ground and Conditions in Rockport

Across the Western Illinois loess uplands and the Mississippi border, loess sheds water fast on slopes and holds it in the flats. Deep loess sits over older drift on rolling uplands cut by bluffs and ravines.

That split drives material choice. On a slope, runoff arrives fast and concentrated, so gully and rill erosion in loess is the real risk.

On flat ground, water sits and softens what is under the surface.

Drainage stone belongs in both cases. CA-7 and CA-11 are washed clean with no fines, so water moves through them instead of ponding.

CA-6 is the opposite job: it compacts into a firm base.

Work here runs from the spring thaw into late fall, a little longer than upstate. Frost still lifts drives and walks each spring.

Questions About Ordering in Rockport

Can I order material by the ton for delivery in Rockport?

Yes. Quantities are ordered by the ton or by the yard, whichever fits the material and the job.

You choose the amount when you place the order online, and the calculator on each product page helps you size the load. Pick a delivery date at checkout and a dump truck tips the material on site.

What stone should I use for drainage in Rockport?

Use washed clean stone with no fines. CA-7 is 1 inch clean stone, and CA-11 is the 3/4 inch clean stone sold alongside it.

Both work for French drains, foundation drains, drywells and pipe bedding. Fines-bearing material like CA-6 compacts into a base instead, so keep it out of drainage work.
