Cobble, Stone and Soil Delivery in Fiddletown, CA

If you need gravel and aggregate delivery in Fiddletown, CA, size the load with the calculator before you order. Punch in your area and depth, and it tells you how many tons or yards to buy. California Rock Supply sells bulk Class 2 base, drainage stone, cobble, sand and soil to Amador County. On these rocky foothill slopes, most jobs start with how water leaves the site.

Winter rain here runs off shallow soil and bedrock fast. That makes coarse stone the first material on many lists, and the rest falls in behind it.

Materials for Fiddletown Projects

Slope, swale and creek bank work comes down to size. The coarser the stone, the more it resists moving water, so start there and work finer.

• RipRap is the heavy armor for creek banks, culvert outlets and steep slope toes. Caltrans calls placed rock on slopes rock slope protection, and this is that material. It locks together and holds when runoff hits hard.
• Railroad Ballast and #4 Crushed Stone handle severe drainage, trench bottoms and hard standing. Both are coarse and angular, so they stay open and let water pass.
• 3/4" Drain Rock is clean washed stone with no fines. Use it in French drains, drainage trenches and the layer behind a retaining wall.
• Large River Rock and River Cobble slow runoff in dry creek beds and swales. Rounded stone also works as a border or bed cover.
• Class 2 Base goes under drives, parking pads and the compacted layer beneath pavers, slabs and Stone Screenings paths. It is the standard California base, specified by Caltrans as Class 2 aggregate base.

Finer materials finish the job. Stone Screenings packs firm for paths and patios. Drain Rock handles drywells and downspout runs. Top Soil and Shredded Mulch rebuild beds and hold moisture through the dry months.

Delivery to Fiddletown and the Surrounding Area

Order online and pick your delivery date at checkout. Choose your quantity by the ton or by the yard, and a dump truck brings it out to your site. Fiddletown sits in Amador County, and we also deliver to Ione, Jackson, Pine Grove, Sutter Creek and Pioneer.

Give some thought to where the truck can turn around and where the pile should land. On a narrow foothill drive, that drop point decides how much wheelbarrow work you do later. Material goes on the ground where the driver can reach it, so walk the route before you order.

Ground and Conditions in Fiddletown

This is Sierra Nevada foothill ground. Soils are rocky and often shallow over bedrock, with clay in many pockets and fast-draining Stone Screenings in others. Heavy winter rain sheets off slopes and road cuts, and clay holds water where it pools.

Plan the work for late spring into fall. Winter storms turn clay and steep drives to mud, and the higher towns can see snow delays in mid-winter. Ordering early in the season keeps the material on site before the ground softens.

Two things matter on every job here. Your pad or drive has to shed water, and runoff coming off slopes above needs a path that does not cross your work. Coarse stone in a swale or at a culvert outlet gives that water somewhere to go. Then compact your Class 2 base over a drained subgrade, and it will hold through the wet season.
