Materials for Sodus Projects

Start with fill and sub-base when you raise grade or build a pad. Sodus ground sits flat to gently rolling, so a low lot often needs fill before anything else goes down. Fill Dirt raises grade and backfills low spots before a base or topsoil goes on.

For a driveway, order item 4 as the compacting subbase. It binds under a plate or roller and carries the load. Top it with Driveway Gravel for the wearing surface. Many New York yards sell crusher run and item 4 as the same kind of material, so either name gets you a compacting base.

For a patio, set bedding over a compacted base. Stone Dust, also called screenings, beds pavers, flagstone and patio bases. Washed Sand levels and beds under slabs. Mason Sand handles brick and block work and paver joints.

For a drain, match the stone to the water. #2 stone, the local name for 3/4 inch crushed stone, suits septic beds, pipe bedding and backfill. Drain Rock feeds French drains, drywells and downspout runs. RipRap, also called riprap, armors culvert outlets and banks against runoff and ice.

Ground and Conditions in Sodus

Sodus sits in the Lake Erie and Lake Ontario lowlands and snow belts. The ground is flat to gently rolling silt, clay and sand left by old glacial lakes, with drumlin hills and old beach ridges. Swampy muck fills some low areas.

That soil decides how deep a base has to be. Clay holds water and turns soft when it thaws, so an under-built base pumps and settles under a truck or a loaded trailer. Dig out soft spots and muck before you place item 4, then compact in lifts.

Lake-effect snow off Lake Ontario builds a heavy snowpack. Spring melt and heavy rain leave water standing on slow-draining ground, so plan a drainage layer. Cold winters bring frequent freezing and thawing, and the silt and clay soils are prone to frost heave. Frost depth runs about 4 feet down for footings, and the local building department sets the exact depth.

Waves, ice and high water wear the Lake Ontario shoreline, and creeks scour their banks during snowmelt. RipRap and stone fill armor those banks and ditch lines.

Time your work around the season. Base and driveway work runs from spring thaw into late fall. Frozen, snow-covered ground stops compaction through the winter, and clay ground can stay soft into spring.
