Materials for West Henrietta Projects

Erosion work calls for the coarsest stone first. Rip rap, sold here as riprap, armors stream banks, culvert outlets and slopes against runoff and ice. Set it on banks and ditch edges where fast water scours.

Below that, #4 Crushed Stone handles heavy drainage, construction entrances and trench bottoms. Pair it with Drain Rock for French drains, drywells, foundation drains and downspout runs.

Mid-size stone does the everyday drainage work. Use #2 stone for septic beds, pipe bedding and backfill. Use #57 Stone for French drains and concrete aggregate.

On the finer end, item 4 is the standard New York name for compacting subbase stone. It goes under driveways, parking pads, patio and shed bases. Many yards sell crusher run and item 4 as the same kind of material, and Crusher Run works where you want a binding base.

For a decorative or erosion finish, Large River Rock fills dry creek beds and heavier borders. River Rock covers decorative beds and lighter dry creek work.

Ground and Conditions in West Henrietta

Plan around the working 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.

That matters for timing. A load dropped on soft ground can sink or rut before you compact it.

The ground here is silt, clay and sand left by old glacial lakes, with drumlin hills and stony glacial till rising toward the southern hills. Swampy muck fills some low areas, and water sits on flat, slow-draining clay.

Cold, snowy winters bring frequent freezing and thawing. The lake-bed silt and clay soils are prone to frost heave and turn soft when they thaw. Frost depth is usually about 4 feet down for footings, and the local building department sets the exact depth.

Lake-effect snow off Lake Erie and Lake Ontario builds a heavy snowpack in belts south and east of the lakes. Waves, ice and high water wear bluffs and shorelines, and creeks scour their banks during snowmelt and heavy rain. Coarse stone on those banks and swales is the answer.
