Countywide Aggregate & Gravel Supply in Logan County, Ohio

Driveway & Road Materials

For durable driveways and road resurfacing in Logan County, choose materials designed for Ohio traffic loads and seasonal weather. We supply base and wearing course options to fit rural lanes, subdivision streets, and farm access roads.

Base layers and compactable mixes

Base materials form the backbone of any long-lasting driveway. Use crusher run or road base under asphalt or gravel to stabilize subgrade and prevent rutting.

• Crusher run compacts well for a firm base
• Road base is engineered for heavy loads
• Crushed concrete is an economical recycled base

Top surfaces and wearing layers

For the surface layer, well-graded driveway gravel or 3/4 inch crushed stone provides traction and resists tracking. In areas near Indian Lake where salt and snow are common, choose angular stone that locks together and sheds water.

Drainage & Erosion Control

Proper drainage prevents water damage to foundations, roads, and landscapes across Logan County’s varying terrain. We stock materials that meet common drainage needs for residential and commercial projects.

French drains and perimeter drainage

Use drain rock with filter fabric to create effective French drains around foundations and in soggy yards near lakes. The angular particles maintain voids for water flow.

French drain components and best practices

• #57 stone is ideal around drain pipe for flow and filtration — see #57 Stone.
• Use washed sand under pavers to promote drainage and reduce movement — we carry washed sand.

Decorative Stone & Hardscape Materials

Beautify porches, beds, and water features with decorative aggregates suited to local style and climate. Rounded stones and colored gravels create low-maintenance beds that manage runoff and reduce weed growth.

Popular decorative aggregates

• River Rock for naturalistic beds and dry stream features
• Pea Gravel for cozy paths and playground borders
• Decomposed Granite for rustic walkways

Benefits of decorative aggregates

• Low maintenance compared with mulch
• Improved drainage around plants
• Long-lasting color and texture through seasons

Sands, Soils & Play Areas

Quality soils and sands help lawns establish and play areas stay safe. We deliver clean sands and screened topsoil across Logan County for landscape contractors and homeowners.

Soils for lawns and beds

Topsoil improves planting success in Logan County’s glacial loams and clay pockets. Add screened topsoil to raise beds or topdress new lawns. We deliver bulk topsoil for large projects.

Sands for masonry and play

• Mason Sand for mortar and paver bedding
• Playground Sand that meets safety standards for play surfaces
• Washed Sand for drainage mixes and filter layers

Recycled & Specialty Aggregates

Recycled materials can offer environmental and cost advantages, especially for large grading and infrastructure projects common in rural Logan County.

Crushed concrete and eco-friendly options

Crushed Concrete provides a strong, recycled base for driveways and parking areas. It performs well in cold climates when properly installed and compacted.

Local Conditions — Why Material Choice Matters in Logan County

Logan County features rolling glaciated terrain with notable features such as Campbell Hill near Bellefontaine and the Indian Lake region around Russells Point and Lakeview. Seasonal freeze-thaw, heavy spring rains, and clay pockets influence how aggregates perform.

Soil and geology notes

Most yards and rural fields in Logan County contain glacial till and loam overlying carbonate bedrock. Low-lying areas near Indian Lake and other wetlands can have higher water tables and require improved drainage and angular aggregates.

Climate impacts on materials

The humid continental climate produces hot summers and cold winters. Freeze-thaw cycles increase the importance of well-drained aggregates for roads and foundations. Choosing the right aggregates reduces maintenance and prevents potholes and heaving.

Project Types Suited to Our Aggregates

We supply materials for a wide variety of projects around Logan County. Below are common uses based on local needs.

• Residential driveways and rural lane reconstruction
• Road repairs for township and county crews
• Landscape beds, dry creek features, and erosion control
• Patios, paver bases, and walkways
• Play areas and school grounds
• Foundation and drainage projects for lakeside properties

Tips for Choosing Aggregates in Logan County

Assess drainage and slope

On sloped properties near Campbell Hill, prioritize drainage by using #57 stone or drain rock in swales and around downspouts. For flat, clay-heavy yards, use more angular, well-graded materials to maintain structural stability.

Think about freeze-thaw

Choose coarse, free-draining aggregates for base layers to reduce frost heave. For walking paths and patios, a stable surface mix like walkway gravel or decomposed granite provides both aesthetics and performance.
