Materials for Georgetown Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most sites around Georgetown. That means moving fill, building grade, and finishing with black dirt before anything hard goes down.

Fill Dirt raises grade and backfills around foundations and pads.

It goes down before a Class 5 course.

Top Soil is black dirt, what Minnesota calls topsoil. Buy it screened or pulverized for lawns, sod beds and planting beds.

Garden Soil is a garden mix of screened black dirt and compost. Use it in raised beds and planting areas where roots need loose ground.

Under the soil, the base course does the structural work. Class 5 is the standard Minnesota base for driveways, parking pads, shed and garage bases and road base.

Top a drive with Driveway Gravel, or use Class 2, the 3/4 inch crushed surfacing aggregate in Spec 3138, over a compacted base. Minnesota yards sell Class 2 as granite, buff limestone or red limestone.

Ground and Conditions in Georgetown

Georgetown sits in Clay County, on the flat bed of glacial Lake Agassiz. Across the Red River Valley and the northern lake plain, deep silt and clay settled out in still water, and that lake sediment is weak, frost susceptible and a poor aggregate source.

Almost no fall crosses the lake plain, and a tight clay subgrade sits underneath. Meltwater and rain stay where they land instead of running off, so a graded site holds water until it drains or dries.

Plan the base and the drainage layer around that. Fill Dirt raises grade away from a slab, and a clean washed stone like Drainage Rock gives water somewhere to go under and around a foundation.

Frost drives deep into clay that holds water, and the ground heaves as it thaws. The Minnesota Residential Code footing table sets 5 feet for its Zone I counties, the depth a building official works from.

That figure belongs to the code zone, not to Georgetown alone.

Base, drive and paver work waits for the thaw and for the clay to dry out. Spring load limits go up on North zone roads from late March into May, and the building season is short at both ends.

Questions About Ordering in Georgetown

Choose the amount on the product page, set your delivery date at checkout, and a dump truck brings the load to your site in Georgetown. Each product page has a calculator if you want to size the load before you order.

What stone should I use for drainage in Georgetown?

Use a clean washed stone with the fines taken out. Drainage Rock, usually a 1 1/2 inch clear rock in Minnesota, suits French drains, drywells, footing and foundation drains and downspout runs.

For under-slab work, including the gas-permeable layer beneath a passive radon system, use 3/4 Clear Rock. Fines-bearing material like Class 5 does not drain.
