Materials for Kempton Projects

Around here the yard work matters as much as the driveway. Decorative rock and clean stone carry a lot of the landscaping jobs, from bed borders to dry creek beds that move water away from the house.

For bed edges and open ground cover, River Rock lays down smooth and stays put. Larger runs and dry creek beds do better with Large River Rock, which holds its place when water moves through.

Walkways and play areas call for 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel. It is rounded natural stone rather than crushed, so it stays loose underfoot instead of packing into a hard, uneven surface.

For a path that finishes firm, dress the top with Walkway Gravel over a compacted base. Beds that need to hold moisture through summer get Shredded Mulch.

Under any of that, a driveway or patio still wants 2A Modified compacted first. Drainage behind a wall or a shed pad in a wet spot gets clean stone that lets water pass.

Ground and Conditions in Kempton

This part of the state is folded bedrock: long sandstone ridges with thin, stony soils, and valleys floored by shale or by limestone and dolomite that weather to clay. In the anthracite coal fields the ground is broken up by old strip mines and waste piles.

That matters for what you build on. A thin base over clay holds water, and a base that holds water heaves and breaks apart after repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Cold winters here bring those cycles, with frost depth commonly about 36 inches, set by each municipality.

Rain and snowmelt run off the steep ridge slopes into the valleys. In limestone and dolomite valleys, runoff concentrated from roofs, gutters and drives can open sinkholes, so route water away from the foundation instead of letting it pool.

The same runoff scours roadside ditches, culvert outlets and gravel drives, and cuts stream banks back during heavy rain and snowmelt. Base, driveway and paver work runs from spring, once the ground has thawed and dried, into late fall. Do not put base stone down on frozen, soft or muddy ground.
