Complete Your Outdoor Stone Project

Stone handles paths and borders, but Richmond beds need more. Add mulch for weed control and soil to improve planting conditions on clay loam ground.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

The term gravel technically means stone particles between 2mm and 64mm in diameter according to geological standards. Anything larger is classified as cobble, anything smaller is sand.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

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

Compact crushed stone base in 2 inch lifts using a plate compactor for proper density. Thicker layers do not compact properly and settle unevenly under weight over time, causing cracks and shifting.

The Unique Landscape of Richmond

Stone creates clean lines and durable surfaces that don’t break down. Richmond humidity and storms can fuel weeds and washout without good coverage. In Richmond, Virginia, stone delivery makes it easier to create crisp borders, stable paths, and drainage-friendly zones. It’s great for edging, drainage zones, and decorative areas that need to stay put. Use edging and, where appropriate, fabric to reduce mixing and weeds. Pick the right size for the job, from decorative rock to compactable gravel. Delivery keeps the focus on the work, not on loading and unloading bags.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answer

Should I order extra?

Yes—about 10% more handles settling and edge irregularities. Delivery is mileage-based, so one trip beats two.

Answer

Stone vs mulch—which is better?

Context matters. Stone for longevity and drainage, mulch for soil benefit and economy. Richmond landscapes often benefit from using both.

Answer

Is stone safe for kids and pets?

Yes, with the right type. Smooth pea gravel and river rock are kid-safe. Skip sharp-edged crushed stone in play zones.

Answer

Where will you drop the stone?

Wherever you want—driveway, side yard, curbside. Specify at checkout and include any helpful notes for our driver.

Answer

Which stone color stays coolest?

Light colors reflect heat better—whites, tans, pale grays. Dark stone in Richmond's sun gets too hot for bare feet.

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

What stone works around plants?

Use granite or other neutral stone near plants. Limestone affects soil pH over time—problematic for acid-preferring species.
