Materials for East Durham Projects

Start with soil and fill if you are grading, building beds or raising a low spot. Fill Dirt brings grade up and backfills before a base or topsoil goes down. Top Soil finishes lawns and beds over the stony ground. Garden Soil fills raised beds and planting areas.

For drives, pads and patio bases, Item 4 is the New York name for compacting subbase stone. Many yards sell Crusher Run as the same kind of material. Top a compacted base with Driveway Gravel.

Washed stone handles water. 3/4" Crushed Stone, sold as #2 stone, suits drainage, septic beds and pipe bedding. 3/8" Crushed Stone, sold as #1 stone, works for fine drainage and topping over a base.

Sand and decorative stone round out a job. Mason Sand beds brick, block and pavers. Washed Sand levels and beds under slabs. River Rock dresses beds and borders, and RipRap armors banks and culvert outlets.

Ground and Conditions in East Durham

Water drives every decision here. Spring snowmelt, ice jams and heavy rain from coastal storms raise the Hudson and its tributaries. Clay and silt on the valley floors drain slowly and stay wet after storms.

That changes what you put down. Wet ground will not compact, so a drainage layer of #2 stone or Drain Rock goes in before a base. On the hills, ledge rock sits close to the surface and digging is slow.

Cold winters bring repeated freezing and thawing, and the silt and clay soils on valley floors are especially prone to frost heave. Frost depth is usually about 4 feet down for footings, and the local building department sets the exact depth.

Timing matters too. Base and driveway work runs from spring thaw into late fall. Frozen ground stops compaction in winter, and wet clay valley ground can stay soft into spring.
