6" Rip Rap

Six-inch rip rap is large, rough angular stone used to armor slopes, shorelines, culvert outlets, and drainage channels against erosion. It's a mixed gray stone warmed by strong tan, buff, and gold-brown tones with darker charcoal banding and occasional rust flecks. The heavy, interlocking pieces stay put under fast water and hold banks and grades in place through heavy New England runoff and spring melt. Hello Gravel delivers it in bulk across the Amherst–Northampton area.

The experience with Hello Gravel was everything one could envision. It was as if their representatives were in my home helping me make the right choice for my landscaping needs. I was guided thru the entire process from ordering until delivery and then a follow up to ensure I was completely satisfied. Nina provided me with detailed information on the delivery process. The driver that made the delivery put my ordered materials exactly where I wanted. He was very courteous and professional. I would highly recommend Hello Gravel for your landscaping materials.
