Materials for Lakeville Projects

Grading and bed prep carry a lot of work around here. Fill dirt, black dirt and garden soil get a lot to do before anything hard goes down.

Start with Fill Dirt to raise grade or backfill.

Finish planting areas with Top Soil. Black dirt is what Minnesota calls topsoil, and it sells screened or pulverized for lawns and sod beds.

For raised beds, Garden Soil blends screened black dirt with compost. It holds moisture through the dry stretch of a Minnesota summer.

Base and surfacing come next. Class 5 is the standard Minnesota base course.

It carries driveways, parking pads, shed and garage bases and road base.

Then the washed stone and sand:

• 3/4 Clear Rock for drainage beds, drive surfacing and construction entrances. Clear rock means washed with the fines taken out.
• Drainage Rock, usually a 1 1/2 inch clear rock, for French drains, footing drains and downspout runs.
• Washed Sand for bedding and levelling under slabs and pavers, also sold as concrete sand.
• Mason Sand for brick and block work, paver joints and sandboxes.

Ground and Conditions in Lakeville

Water drives the material choices here. Rain, snowmelt and heavy summer storms all arrive on ground that drains at different speeds.

Across the Twin Cities metro, sandy ground north of the rivers takes water fast. Till through the southern and western suburbs drains slowly and holds it.

Hard surfaces concentrate runoff, and the river terraces and bluff faces move water down quickly. Bluff and ravine erosion, gully cutting on graded lots and streambank scour in creeks all follow heavy rain.

That mix is why a drainage layer matters as much as the base. Clear rock and drain rock give water somewhere to go instead of sitting under a slab or a drive.

Where a clay loam subgrade holds water under a thin base, freeze-thaw heaved drives, walks and slabs are the result. Know which ground you are on before you order.

The working season is the longest in the state, running from the spring thaw into late autumn. Spring load limits go up on Metro zone roads in early March and come off in mid-April, so plan around them.
