Materials for Stanton Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most Stanton jobs, and that work starts with soil and fill. Screened topsoil, sold here as black dirt, feeds lawn repair, regrading and bed prep.

Garden soil is blended richer for raised beds and vegetable plots.

Fill dirt raises grade, fills low ground and backfills ahead of a roadstone course. Class A roadstone is the crushed limestone base that binds and compacts under drives, parking pads and shed bases.

• Top Soil for lawn repair, grading and bed prep.
• Garden Soil for raised beds and planting areas.
• Fill Dirt for raising grade and backfilling.
• Class A Roadstone for drives, pads and farm lanes.
• Washed Sand for bedding and leveling under slabs and pavers.

Around the base work, clean rock and limestone screenings cover the drainage and finish side. Clean rock is washed and open graded, so water moves straight through it.

Limestone screenings bed pavers and fill joints.

Ground and Conditions in Stanton

Across the Southern Iowa Drift Plain, water is the driver. Rain and snowmelt hit steeply rolling ground that sheds at the surface but will not take water below.

The clay subsoil perches it, so it runs off and leaves drives soft at the bottom of a grade.

That perched water is why a clean, open graded stone matters where drainage is the point. Clean rock and washed chips let water move through instead of sitting against a structure.

This is the state's most eroded landscape. Streams cut deep, hillslopes carry a fine texture of rills, and gully and stream bank erosion after heavy rain is the main reason rock goes in on slopes and outlets.

Riprap armors those spots.

The clay is old pre-Illinoian till under a windblown loess mantle. The paleosol beneath is a thick, gummy grey clay that water will not move through, and farmers call working in it gumbo.

Cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw that heaves gravel drives and lanes each spring.
