Materials for Delhi Projects

Fill and sub-base are the backbone of most work around here. You use them to raise grade, build a pad, and give a driveway or slab something solid to sit on. Here is what to order for each project.

Driveways

Lay Fill Dirt to raise low spots and build up the grade first. Then compact Item 4 as the base, and top it with Driveway Gravel for the surface. Crusher Run works the same way where a binding base is wanted.

Patios and Paver Work

Bed pavers on Stone Dust over a compacted base. Mason Sand and Washed Sand both work for leveling and joints under slabs, blocks and brick.

Drains and French Drains

Use Drain Rock or #57 Stone in the trench, and #2 stone for septic beds and pipe bedding. RipRap armors culvert outlets and stream banks where creeks run high.

Ground and Conditions in Delhi

Stony, silty glacial till over layered shale and sandstone covers most of the hills here. Many upland soils have a dense subsoil layer that holds water near the surface. An under-built base on that ground pumps and shifts under load.

Heavy rain runs fast off the steep hillsides into narrow valleys, so creeks rise quickly and flash flooding is a real hazard. On flatter uplands, the dense subsoil keeps water sitting near the surface after rain and snowmelt.

That fast water scours stream banks, culvert outlets and road ditches, and bare soil on steep slopes washes out in heavy rain. RipRap and stone fill hold those banks and ditch edges in place.

Base and driveway work runs from spring thaw into late fall. Frozen ground stops compaction in winter, and hillside sites and back roads can stay soft and wet into spring. Long, cold winters bring repeated freezing and thawing, and wet silty till can heave and turn soft as the frost comes out of the ground in spring. Footings usually go about 4 feet down; the local building department sets the exact depth.
