Materials for Brandon Projects

Raising grade is the first problem on a lot here. Low ground holds water, and a pad built up with the right fill under it stays dry and stable.

Start with the sub-base, then cap it.

Fill Dirt is bulk fill for raising grade and backfilling before a base course goes down.

It builds the pad; it does not surface anything.

Class 5 is the standard Minnesota base course. It carries driveways, parking pads, shed and garage bases and road base, and it compacts hard with the fines left in.

Crusher Run is crushed rock with the fines kept in, for base and drives that need to bind and compact. Minnesota yards sell it by class or by a minus size.

Driveway Gravel finishes over a compacted base, and Granite Fines bed pavers, flagstone and patio work and firm up garden paths.

For a drain, order Drainage Rock, a 1 1/2 inch clear rock for French drains, drywells, footing and downspout runs. 3/4 Clear Rock, also called clear rock, is washed with the fines taken out and goes under slabs and footing drains, including the gas-permeable layer beneath a passive radon system.

Top Soil, sold here as black dirt, covers lawns, sod beds and planting beds. Washed Sand beds and levels under slabs and pavers, and Mason Sand handles brick and block work, paver joints and play areas.

Ground and Conditions in Brandon

This part of the state is moraine, drumlin fields and broad outwash sand plains, with sandy loam over gravel near the lakes and peat and muck in the low ground. Outwash sand drains fast.

The till between the lakes does not, and lake and wetland margins sit close under the water table.

An under-built base fails when water has nowhere to go. On a sandy lot the water leaves.

On tight till it sits under the stone and works the fines up through the base, and the surface loosens and ruts.

Deep frost every winter makes that worse where sand sits over tight till or a high water table. Base, drive and paver work runs from the spring thaw into late autumn.

Spring load limits go up on North and North-Central zone roads from March into May, and frozen ground stops compaction through the winter.
