Materials for Mahomet Projects

Decorative rock carries a lot of the landscaping work around Mahomet, and it is where most beds and dry creek beds start. Rounded stone suits planting areas and splash zones better than crushed material.

River Gravel is rounded decorative gravel for beds, borders and dry creek beds. It comes in a range of sizes and sits well against edging and along a foundation line.

Large River Rock is the bigger rounded stone, used for dry creek beds, downspout splash areas and heavier decorative work. It holds position on a slope where smaller stone would move.

3/8" Natural Pea Gravel is rounded 3/8 inch washed gravel for walkways, play areas, fence post mix and drainage. It works as ground cover where you want a smooth, walkable surface.

Under all of it, CA-6 is the compacted base for drives, pads and shed floors. It is the Illinois base material, dense graded crushed limestone with the fines left in.

Lime Screenings are crushed limestone fines for paver and flagstone bedding and for backfill around pipe. Screenings bed pavers and surface paths.

Ground and Conditions in Mahomet

Mahomet sits on the Grand Prairie till plain of central and eastern Illinois, where deep, dark prairie silt loams cover flat to gently rolling till. Under that topsoil is dense clay subsoil with almost no natural fall.

Water stands rather than runs after heavy rain. A base built on that ground without enough depth will pump and rut, so the base course has to carry the load the clay will not.

Bare silt loam also erodes in sheets, and yard runoff concentrates into gullies. Clean washed stone handles that water better than a fines-bearing material, which is why drainage work here leans on open stone.

CA-7 is washed clean stone with no fines, for bedding under pipe, drainage trenches, French drains and concrete flatwork. 3/4" Crushed Stone is the 3/4 inch clean washed stone sold alongside it for bedding and concrete work.

Base, driveway and paver work runs from the spring thaw into late fall. The ground is slow to dry in a wet spring and frozen solid through the winter, and repeated freeze and thaw shows up as frost heave in gravel drives and walks each spring.
