Materials for Bath Projects

Raising grade and building pads start with fill and sub-base. Sand here shifts under a load, so the ground under a pad or a drive needs material that will not move once it is in place.

Fill Dirt brings a low spot up to grade before anything else goes down. Spread it, shape it, then cap it with a compacted base course.

CA-6 is that base course. Crushed limestone with the fines left in, it compacts into a tight surface for driveways, parking pads, shed floors and garage slabs.

For a driveway, cap the fill with CA-6. For a patio, bed the pavers on Lime Screenings, the fine limestone that levels a setting bed.

For a drain, clean washed stone is the right choice. CA-7 is 1 inch clean stone with no fines, and it carries water instead of holding it.

Use it under pipe, in French drains and around a foundation.

Concrete work needs clean stone too. 3/4" Crushed Stone is the CA-11 size, and Washed Sand is the coarse torpedo sand that mixes into concrete.

Ground and Conditions in Bath

The ground across the Illinois River valley and the sand areas is wind-blown and river-laid sand over silt and clay. Sand takes water quickly and holds almost none.

That changes what a base has to do. Water does not sit and soften the ground, it runs through and washes the fines out from under a drive.

Ruts follow.

So the base has to be built to stay put. CA-6 with its fines left in compacts into a surface that resists wash, and clean stone under it moves water away.

Bare sand also blows. Seed or cover a graded pad before wind moves it.

The sandy ground dries and works early in the spring, and work runs into late fall. Low bottoms along the river stay off limits during high water.

Questions About Material in Bath

What is the best base under pavers in Bath?

CA-6 is the compacted base course, and lime screenings are the setting bed on top of it. The screenings level the pavers and lock them in place.

Clean washed stone is not a base; it drains and will not compact, so keep CA-7 and CA-11 for drainage work instead.

Do you supply contractors working in Bath?

Yes. Contractors order the same way homeowners do: online, by the ton or the yard, with a delivery date chosen at checkout.

A dump truck tips the load on site. Mason County crews working in Havana, Mason City, Manito, San Jose and Kilbourne order the same material.
