Materials for Kill Buck Projects

This is fill and base country. Whether you are raising grade for a building pad or rebuilding a drive that heaved over the winter, the first loads are almost always fill and sub-base.

For raising grade, filling low spots or backfilling before anything else goes down, start with Fill Dirt. Cap it with Item 4, the standard New York name for compacting subbase stone. It goes under driveways, parking pads, patio and shed bases, and it tightens up under a plate compactor.

On a building pad, compact item 4 in lifts, then bring the surface up. Crusher Run does the same job where you want a binding material, and many New York yards treat the two as the same kind of stone.

For a driveway, top the compacted item 4 with Driveway Gravel. Around the house, drainage is the other half of the job. #57 Stone handles French drains, downspout runs and septic beds, and Drain Rock covers drywells and foundation drains.

Finishing work runs on finer material. Stone Dust, also called stone screenings, beds pavers and flagstone. Mason Sand does brick and block work and paver joints. For lawn and bed prep over this stony glacial till, Top Soil gives new seed something to root in.

Ground and Conditions in Kill Buck

Stony, silty glacial till over layered shale and sandstone covers most of the hills here, and valley floors carry gravel, sand and silt. Many upland soils have a dense subsoil layer that holds water near the surface after rain and snowmelt, so an under-built base turns soft.

Heavy rain also runs fast off steep hillsides into narrow valleys. Creeks rise quickly, and flash flooding scours banks, culvert outlets and road ditches. Bare soil on a steep slope washes out in one hard storm, which is where rip rap and stone fill earn their place.

Timing matters. Base and driveway work runs from spring thaw into late fall, because frozen ground stops compaction. Hillside sites and back roads can stay soft and wet into spring, so plan the haul before the truck sinks.

Frost drives the rest. Long, cold winters bring repeated freezing and thawing, and wet silty till heaves and turns soft as frost comes out. Footings usually go about 4 feet down, and the local building department sets the exact depth.
