Lime Screenings for Pathways in Mozier, IL

Illinois Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Mozier, IL, and the working season here runs from the spring thaw into late fall. That is a little longer than upstate, so there is usually room to time a load around the weather.

CA-6, the dense graded crushed limestone with the fines left in, is the base material most Mozier work starts from. Order it online and a dump truck tips it on your site.

Ground and Conditions in Mozier

This part of Calhoun County sits in the Western Illinois loess uplands and the Mississippi border country. Loess sheds water fast on slopes and holds it in the flats.

That split shows up in a thin base course. Water moves through the top of the grade quickly, then stalls where the ground levels out, and the surface starts to rut and pump.

The fix is a base that carries the load and a clean stone layer that gives water somewhere to go. A fines-bearing material like CA-6 compacts into a firm surface.

A washed stone like CA-7 or CA-11 stays open and lets water pass.

Gully and rill erosion in loess on steep ground is the other pattern to plan around. Where runoff concentrates, a path or drive edge washes out before the surface itself fails.

Frost still lifts drives and walks each spring across this region. The frost depth figure is set by the local building department, so check with them before you set anything structural.

Materials for Mozier Projects

Fines and screenings do the fine work on paths and garden walks here. Lime Screenings are crushed limestone fines, and they bed pavers and flagstone and give a path a tight, walkable surface.

Screenings also backfill around pipe. They pack firm without the open voids that leave a trench soft on top.

For the base under a path or pad, CA-6 is the Illinois material. It is dense graded crushed limestone with the fines left in, and it compacts into a stable surface for driveways, parking pads and shed bases.

Where water needs to move, switch to clean washed stone. CA-7 is the one inch clean stone for bedding under pipe, drainage trenches and French drains.

CA-11 is the 3/4 inch clean stone that Illinois yards sell alongside it for the same work.

CA-16 Chips are the small 3/8 inch chips. They bed permeable pavers and top a compacted base.

For a walkable decorative surface, Walkway Gravel is sized for paths and garden walks. River Gravel is the rounded stone for beds, borders and dry creek beds.
