Fall is a Good Time to Plant Grass

September 25, 2024
Northern Virginia residents, Fall is a good time to plant grass because of the ideal conditions for new grass growth, and the benefits of more precipitation. Rock Stone and Sand Yard, RSSY stocks several types of SOD grass.
 
Temperature: The warm, sunny days and cool, dewy nights of fall are ideal for growing grass and developing a strong root system.
Competition: The cooling temperatures of Fall mean that annual broadleaf weeds and crabgrass are dying, so new SOD can establish with little competition.
Watering: Water frequently and lightly multiple times a day until the grass is fully established.

Need Aggregates for Your Construction Project?

July 23, 2024
Rock Stone and Sand Yard, RSSY, construction and decorative aggregates are a broad category of coarse to medium-grained particulate material used in construction, including sand, gravel, crushed stone, slag and recycled concrete.
 
Aggregates are the most mined materials in the world. Aggregates are a component of composite materials such as concrete and asphalt; the aggregate serves as reinforcement to add strength to the overall composite material. Due to the relatively high hydraulic conductivity value as compared to most soils, aggregates are widely used in drainage applications such as foundation and French drains, septic drain fields, retaining wall drains, and roadside edge drains.
 
Aggregates are also used as base material under foundations, roads, and railroads. In other words, aggregates are used as a stable foundation or road/rail base with predictable, uniform properties (e.g. to help prevent differential settling under the road or building), or as a low-cost extender that binds with more expensive cement or asphalt to form concrete.
 
Call RSSY’s sales persons today (703) 339-8095 for pricing and help choosing the proper aggregate for your job. Please visit our web page for additional details.
