Natural Stone delivery in Wrentham, MA

From the streets around Lake Pearl to the neighborhoods near Wrentham State Forest, the town mixes older homes, newer subdivisions and plenty of wooded lots. Many Wrentham lots back onto woods or wetlands, so natural materials tend to look right here.

Wrentham homeowners often use stone for drip edges, drainage along wooded lot lines and gravel parking pads. For that reason, natural stone is a regular order in Wrentham. In short, our 1½″ Natural Stone is larger washed-look stone for drainage, dry wells and drip edges, and it is sold by the cubic yard.

Why Wrentham customers choose our natural stone

It is stone screened to roughly an inch and a half, with natural tones of tan, gray and brown. The mix of colors looks relaxed and natural, so it blends with New England homes, stone walls and woodland edges.

Unlike fine crushed stone, it does not pack into a hard surface. Instead, the pieces stay loose and open. That is exactly what you want around a foundation drain, a dry well or a downspout splash area, where water needs to disappear quickly.

Popular uses for natural stone in Wrentham

Homeowners and contractors in Wrentham put natural stone to work in many ways. This size handles both practical and decorative jobs:

• Dry wells and drainage pits
• Drip edges along rooflines without gutters
• French drain trenches (with fabric)
• Decorative beds and borders around the house
• Splash areas under downspouts
• Swales and low spots that collect runoff

How much natural stone does a Wrentham project need?

First, measure the area in feet and multiply length by width. Then multiply by the depth in inches and divide by 324. The result is cubic yards, which is how we sell natural stone. For decorative beds and drip edges, 3 inches of natural stone is typical. Drainage trenches and dry wells, however, are measured by their full volume.

For example, a typical Wrentham job of about 500 square feet needs roughly 4.5 yards at 3 inches, or 6 yards at 4 inches. Still, round up by half a yard for edges and settling. Or call (774) 372-1050, and we will check the math before the truck is loaded.

Delivery or pickup for Wrentham, MA

We deliver natural stone in Wrentham, MA by truck, placing the pile where you want it. Most Wrentham driveways are easy for our trucks. Still, older roads near the town center can be narrow, so tell us about tight turns or low branches when you order.

1. Book the load. Call or send a quote request with the amount of natural stone and your Wrentham address.
2. Pick the drop spot. Next, choose firm, open ground close to the work area, clear of wires and branches.
3. Protect the surface. Then lay a tarp or plywood on pavement, so cleanup takes minutes.
4. Meet the truck. Finally, the driver calls ahead and places the pile as close to your spot as the ground safely allows.

Picking up at the yard

Because the yard is in Wrentham, a pickup is a quick local errand rather than a road trip. As a rule, a full-size pickup carries about about 1 yard of this material safely. So check your payload rating, and bring a tarp for the ride back to Wrentham.

When to order natural stone in Wrentham

Stone can go down in any season, as long as the ground is not frozen or soaked. So many Wrentham customers schedule stone work in late spring and early fall, when it is cooler to shovel and rake. Also, fall is a good time to fix drainage before the snow melts.

How to install a natural stone drip edge

1. Dig the strip. Dig a strip about 12 to 18 inches wide and 4 inches deep under the roofline. Then slope the bottom away from the house.
2. Line it. Lay landscape fabric in the trench. As a result, soil will not work up into the stone over time.
3. Add an edge. Set a steel, plastic or stone edge along the lawn side. That way the stone stays in its lane.
4. Fill with stone. Spread natural stone to the top of the edge. Next, rake it level and rinse off any dust.
5. Check the flow. Finally, run a hose off the roof or wait for rain, and confirm water moves away from the foundation.
