Bulk Material Delivery in New Durham, NH

What do you order when a bank is washing out or a swale will not stop running? For gravel and aggregate delivery in New Durham, NH, the answer is usually coarse stone that locks together and stays put. New Hampshire Rock Supply delivers crushed gravel, drainage stone and loam by the ton to sites across Strafford County. You pick the material, we drop it where you are working.

Materials for New Durham Projects

Slope, swale and bank work drives most jobs here. Water moves fast off the hills and sandy plains, so the fix is almost always larger, heavier stone rather than finer material that washes away. Here are the sizes that do the most work in this town.

• RipRap for stream banks, culvert outlets and lakeshore armoring. The large, angular pieces interlock and hold a bank in place through spring runoff.
• Drain Rock for French drains, drywells and downspout runs that need to move water away from a foundation.
• #4 Crushed Stone for heavy drainage, trench bottoms and construction entrances where you need strength and open voids.
• #57 Stone for drainage beds and concrete aggregate at a size that still compacts cleanly.
• Crushed Gravel for driveways and parking pads, the standard base material across New Hampshire.

A quick comparison can help you order the right size the first time.

Ground and Conditions in New Durham

Base and driveway work runs from the end of mud season into late fall. Book your delivery inside that window if you can, because the ground is soft and slow to dry in spring.

The hills around the lakes are stony glacial till and ledge, so digging is slow and the material you pull out is rarely clean enough to reuse as base. The sandy plains and valleys drain fast, which means a drive cut there needs a compacted layer to hold shape rather than a deep drainage bed.

Frost heaves lift gravel drives and camp roads every spring. Frost depth runs about four feet in most towns, and the town building official sets footing depth, so plan your base accordingly. Lakeshore banks take the worst wave damage at high water, and stream banks scour after heavy rain and thaw. Riprap and drain rock are the practical answer on both.

Lead time depends on the material and the season, and it runs longer once mud season starts and again in the fall rush, so order ahead when you can. Bulk loads drop where the truck can reach, so have your spot cleared before the driver arrives.
