Crushed Stone, Sand and Gravel in Raymond, MS

If you are planning a driveway, a patio base or a drainage run in Raymond, MS, the material you pick decides how the job holds up. Mississippi Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Raymond, MS, from 610 limestone for compacting base to garden soil for beds.

The ground here is alkaline, calcareous clay over Yazoo Clay, so what you put on top of it matters as much as what you put under it.

Materials for Raymond Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most lots around Raymond, and that work starts with soil and fill rather than stone. Fill Dirt raises grade and builds up a pad before any base course goes down.

Top Soil gives you a workable layer over tight clay or ground that has washed out.

For raised beds and planting areas, Garden Soil gives roots something that drains, which native clay will not do on its own. Shredded Mulch holds moisture in beds and keeps soil in place on slopes through heavy summer rain.

Once grade is set, 610 limestone is the compacting base for driveways, parking pads, shed pads and patio sub-base. Size No.

Clay Gravel is the pit-run material with enough clay and fines to bind and pack, a long-standing drive and farm-road surface over soft ground.

Washed stone handles water. #57 Limestone suits French drains, foundation drains and drive surfacing where clean, free-draining stone is wanted.

#67 Stone is one size down for drainage and concrete work, and #8 Crushed Stone covers fine drainage, pipe bedding and paver joints.

Sand and decorative stone finish the job. Masonry Sand goes into brick and block work and paver joints.

Natural Pea Gravel is rounded chert washed out of the pit gravels, used on walkways, play areas and decorative beds. River Rock works in borders and dry creek beds.

Ground and Conditions in Raymond

Across the Jackson Prairie and the Yazoo Clay belt, the whole job is keeping soil moisture steady. The clay lifts when it takes up water and pulls down as it dries, and that movement is almost never even across a slab or a drive.

Water is what starts it. Water that gets under a slab or pavement through an open joint, a downspout or a leaking line causes more damage than a wet season does.

Grading water away and keeping it away is the first move on any Raymond site.

That is where clean, open stone earns its place. A drainage layer of #57 limestone or Drain Rock gives water somewhere to go instead of sitting against clay.

RipRap protects banks, culvert outlets, pond edges and slopes where the clay has been cut or loaded.

Work runs nearly year round in Hinds County. The clay is at its worst in a wet spell after a long dry summer, when it takes up water fastest, so timing a base or a slab around that stretch saves rework.
