Materials for Stacy Projects

Raising grade and building pads drive a lot of the work here, and that starts below the finish surface. Fill dirt, also called common borrow, brings a low lot or a new pad up to grade.

Once the pad is at height, Class 5 goes over it as the compacted base course. That pairing handles most new construction, garages, sheds and driveway builds in the area.

For a driveway, base and surface are two different orders. Class 5 builds the base, and Driveway Gravel finishes over it, or Class 2 granite where a tighter 3/4 inch crushed surface is wanted.

Around a house, the drainage layer is a separate material. 3/4 Clear Rock is washed stone with the fines taken out, used for drainage beds and trench backfill.

Clean washed rock also goes under basement slabs and around footing drains. That includes the gas-permeable layer beneath the passive radon system Minnesota requires in new homes.

For paths and patios, Granite Fines bed pavers, flagstone and patio work. Walkway Gravel gives garden paths a finer, compacting surface.

Ground and Conditions in Stacy

Ground across the East central sand plain and St. Croix moraine is mixed.

Clean sand and gravel sit in the outwash, sandy loam covers the ridges, and peat fills the lake basins.

Sand drains rain almost as fast as it falls, and the water table sits close beneath it. Low ground and lake margins stay wet while the sand ridges dry out.

What that means for a base is simple. An under-built base on sandy ground moves, and fill placed to raise grade has to go down before the Class 5 course does.

Bare sand also blows and washes on open lots and fresh grading. Cover new grade with base or black dirt rather than leaving it open.

Winter is frost bound, and spring load limits go up on Central zone roads from March into late April or May. Plan material orders around that window.

The thaw moves drives and walks through repeated freeze cycles rather than once in the spring. Frost depth in Chisago County is 3 feet 6 inches under the Minnesota Residential Code footing table.

Questions from Stacy Buyers

What is the best base under pavers in Stacy?

Granite Fines bed pavers, flagstone and patio work, and they are sold as screenings or stone screenings in Minnesota. Under that bedding you still want a compacted base course, and Class 5 is the standard Minnesota choice for it.

On the sandy ground common here, the base has to be built before the bedding sand goes down.
