Best company I think I’ve ever dealt with. Tyler was amazing. He went above and beyond to meet all of my expectations. He even answered a bunch of questions I had about yardwork/landscaping. I also found out that they not only do mulch, but they do rock and sand as well. Moving forward, this is the only company I believe I will work with when it comes to my yard projects because of his excellent customer service.
Stone projects require accurate estimates—this stuff is heavy and delivery matters. Trace your area, choose a depth, and see tonnage before ordering. Indianapolis yards benefit from proper coverage, especially in drainage applications.
Complete Your Outdoor Stone Project
Decorative stone is a start for Indianapolis projects. Mulch covers your planting beds, soil improves silt loam ground. All three materials deliver together.
Stone dust makes excellent base material for pavers but sheds water when fully compacted. Use clean angular gravel without fines where drainage through the base layer matters for the project.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Stone colors often change dramatically between wet and dry conditions. View samples both wet and dry before ordering large quantities to avoid surprises after installation is complete.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Install stone projects in Indianapolis during dry weather whenever possible for best results. Wet conditions make proper compaction difficult and turn job sites into muddy messes that delay progress.
The Unique Landscape of Indianapolis
Stone creates clean lines and durable surfaces that don’t break down. Indianapolis freeze–thaw and spring rain can beat up beds if materials aren’t refreshed. In Indianapolis, Indiana, stone delivery makes it easier to create crisp borders, stable paths, and drainage-friendly zones. Stone stabilizes high-traffic spots, improves drainage, and keeps mud away. Use edging and, where appropriate, fabric to reduce mixing and weeds. Pick the right size for the job, from decorative rock to compactable gravel. Bulk delivery is the easiest way to tackle a real project without the hassle.
Frequently Asked Questions
Click a question to see the answer
Answer
Does stone help with drainage?
Yes, water percolates through rather than sitting on top. Stone works great in Indianapolis's problem drainage areas.
Answer
Can I choose my delivery date?
Absolutely. Cart shows available dates once items are added and address entered. Choose your preferred day and time window.
Answer
Can stone damage my foundation?
Stone itself won't, but bad grading can. Slope beds away from foundation so water drains outward. Keep stone back from siding for airflow.
Answer
Will stone affect my soil pH?
Some types do. Limestone raises pH gradually; granite is neutral. Check what plants are nearby before selecting.
Answer
What if I ordered the wrong stone?
If you catch it before delivery, contact us to swap. Once delivered, exchanges are difficult. Double-check your order confirmation.
Answer
How do I prepare the area for stone?
Clear vegetation, slope away from structures, compact ground, install fabric, add stone. Indianapolis's glacial till clay makes prep work crucial.
Answer
Can I put stone directly on grass?
Bad idea. Grass dies but doesn't vanish—it becomes bumpy debris under the stone. Remove or kill grass, prep properly, then install.
