Materials for Irvona Projects

Start with the soil and fill. Most jobs around Irvona begin with grading and bed prep, then build up from there. Topsoil and garden soil go down last. Fill and base stone go down first.

• Top Soil: screened to pull out stones and roots, for lawns, final grading and bed prep.
• Garden Soil: raised beds and planting areas that need loose, workable ground.
• Fill Dirt: raises grade and fills low spots before a 2A modified base or topsoil goes down.

Then the base. 2A modified is the standard Pennsylvania base stone, crushed stone with the fines left in so it compacts hard. Use it under driveways, parking pads, shed and patio bases. 2A Modified does the heavy lifting on most sites here. Crusher Run is the same idea, fines mixed in, and Pennsylvania buyers usually ask for 2A modified for the same job.

Washed stone handles water. 2B Stone has no fines, so water moves through it instead of packing tight. Use it in French drains, behind retaining walls, and under shed pads on wet ground. #8 Crushed Stone, sold locally as 1B, is the small clean chip for walkways and decorative topping.

Sand and decorative round out an order. Mason Sand for mortar and paver joints, Washed Sand for concrete and bedding, and River Rock for beds, borders and dry creek beds.

Ground and Conditions in Irvona

Start with water. Heavy rain and snowmelt run down steep hillsides here, and that water soaking into clay layers on slopes is the main trigger for ground movement. Where you send roof and drive runoff matters on a hillside lot.

The soils are silty and clay-rich, weathered from shale, siltstone, sandstone and coal beds. Clay that stays wet softens and heaves through repeated freeze-thaw cycles every winter, and a thin or poorly drained base breaks up fast.

So build for drainage. A clean stone layer under a compacted base keeps water moving instead of trapped. Send downspouts and drive runoff to a defined outlet, not into the hillside. Base, driveway and paver work runs from spring, once the ground has thawed and dried, into late fall. Long wet spells and rain on snow are when hillside ground is most likely to move.

What stone should I use for drainage in Irvona?
