Pea Gravel and Bulk Aggregates for Weldon, IL

Illinois Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Weldon, IL to homeowners, farms and contractors working in De Witt County. Water stands here instead of running off.

The ground across the Grand Prairie till plain is flat, with dense clay under deep silt loam and almost no natural fall.

That is why so much of the work around Weldon starts with drainage. CA-6, the dense graded crushed limestone with the fines left in, builds the drive and the pad.

Washed stone moves the water away.

Materials for Weldon Projects

Start with the clean stone. Washed material has no fines, so water passes through it instead of pooling on top.

That is what a French drain, a drywell or a downspout run needs.

CA-7 is the 1 inch clean stone, also sold as #57 stone. Use it for bedding under pipe, drainage trenches and French drains.

3/4" Crushed Stone, or CA-11, is the smaller clean washed size for the same work and for concrete flatwork.

For tight spots, CA-16 Chips run 3/8 inch and bed permeable pavers or drain around tanks. Drain Rock covers French drains, drywells, foundation drains and downspout runs where a clean washed stone is the point.

Then the base and surface materials. CA-6 is the Illinois base course: dense graded crushed limestone with the fines left in, for driveways, parking pads, shed and garage bases and trench backfill.

Driveway Gravel surfaces an existing drive or tops a compacted base.

Sand and soil round out a Weldon order. Washed Sand, which yards here call torpedo sand, is the coarse washed sand for concrete, leveling and bedding.

Top Soil covers lawns, grading and bed prep.

Ground and Conditions in Weldon

Plan the work around the season. Base, driveway and paver jobs run from the spring thaw into late fall.

A wet spring leaves this ground slow to dry, and winter locks it up solid.

Underneath, the Grand Prairie till plain gives you flat ground over dense clay subsoil with almost no fall. Rain stands rather than runs.

Bare silt loam also sheets and gullies where runoff concentrates, so a drainage layer earns its place.

Cold winters bring repeated freeze and thaw, and frost heave shows up in gravel drives, walks and shallow slabs each spring. Frost depth runs about 36 inches through most of central and eastern Illinois, and the local building department sets the figure for a given job.
