New York Rock Supply stocks item 4 for driveways and pads, plus washed stone, sand and topsoil. Mooers sits on the clay plains of the Champlain valley, so drainage drives most material choices here.

Ground and Conditions in Mooers

Build on a thin base and it fails fast. Clay and silt plains hold water, so a shallow lift pumps, ruts and sinks under a truck. Spread the load over a thicker, compacted layer instead of one thin lift.

Compact in lifts, and stop when the ground freezes. Frozen ground will not compact, and flat clay ground here can stay wet and soft well into spring. Plan base and driveway work from spring thaw into fall.

Frost heave is severe on these soils. Footings usually sit about 4 feet down, and the local building department sets the exact depth. Water still has to leave the base, so stone and drainage matter as much as depth.

Materials for Mooers Projects

Start with the fines. Stone dust, also called screenings, is the usual New York bedding for pavers, flagstone and patio work, and it makes a fine path surface that packs firm underfoot. For a walkway that needs to shed water, set the fines over a compacted base rather than on bare clay.

For paths and drives, lay a compacted base first. Item 4, the standard New York name for compacting subbase stone, carries the load and binds when it is watered and rolled. Many New York yards sell crusher run and item 4 as the same kind of material, so ask for the base grade and use it under walkways, patios and shed pads.

Top the base with a walkable surface. Walkway gravel gives paths a finer finish. Natural Pea Gravel, also called pea stone, suits walkways, play areas and drainage. For structure under all of it, #2 stone (3/4 inch crushed stone) handles drainage, septic beds and pipe bedding.

Finishing and planting materials round out a job. Screened topsoil and garden soil rebuild beds over stony glacial ground. Mason sand and washed sand bed pavers and slabs. Shredded mulch holds moisture in beds through the summer.
