Materials for Reasnor Projects

Most ground here needs building up before it needs a surface. Fill and sub-base do that work, and the material you pick depends on what is going on top of it.

Raising grade and building pads

Fill Dirt raises low ground and backfills ahead of a roadstone course. It goes in first, under everything else.

Class A Roadstone is the compacted base for drives, parking pads, shed bases and farm lanes. Crushed limestone with the fines left in, so it binds and tightens up.

On a new drive, a soft spot or a lane that carries heavy equipment, 1 Inch Roadstone goes down coarser and under a finer surface course.

Drives and lanes

Driveway Gravel tops an existing drive or lane that has thinned out, laid over a compacted roadstone base.

3/4" Crushed Stone is clean and open graded, for drive surfacing where you want a loose, free draining stone.

Drainage, beds and soil

Clean Rock is washed and open graded, so water moves straight through. It suits subdrains, pipe bedding, septic rock and backfill behind retaining walls.

Top Soil is screened black dirt for lawn repair, grading and bed prep. Washed Sand beds and levels under slabs and pavers.

Ground and Conditions in Reasnor

Across the Southern Iowa Drift Plain the ground is old till under a windblown loess mantle. Below that sits the Yarmouth-Sangamon paleosol, a thick grey clay water will not move through.

So the surface drains and the subsoil does not. Water perches, runs off and leaves drives soft at the bottom of a grade, and a wet spring pushes base work back while clay soils dry.

This is also Iowa's most eroded landscape, so gullies and stream banks move after heavy rain. That is why fill and sub-base have to be built up rather than skimmed on: an under-built pad on clay keeps moving.

Freeze-thaw heaves gravel drives and lanes every spring. Footing depth in Iowa is commonly 42 inches, and the local building official sets the figure for a given job.

Questions from Reasnor Buyers

What is the best base under pavers in Reasnor?

Class A roadstone is the compacted base, crushed limestone with the fines left in so it binds. Limestone screenings, the 3/8 inch minus material, bed the pavers and fill the joints on top of it.

Washed sand also beds and levels under pavers and slabs where a clean, free draining grade is wanted.
