Materials for Shickshinny Projects

Driveway work leads here. Build the base first, then surface it. Everything below is sold in bulk and delivered to your site.

Base and driveway stone

2A Modified is crushed stone with the fines left in, so it compacts hard and locks together under a drive, a parking pad or a shed base. It carries the load.

Driveway Gravel goes on top of a compacted base or dresses an existing drive. Fill Dirt raises grade and fills low spots before the base stone goes down.

Washed stone

Where water has to move, use clean stone. 2B Stone has no fines, so it drains instead of packing. It suits French drains, retaining wall backfill and shed pads in wet ground.

#89 Crushed Stone is the small washed chip for tight bedding and joints. Screenings pack firm under pavers and flagstone.

Sand, soil and decorative stone

Washed Sand beds pavers and slabs and mixes concrete. Top Soil finishes lawns and beds, screened to pull out stones and roots. River Rock covers decorative beds and dry creek beds.

Ground and Conditions in Shickshinny

Water drives the material choice here. Rain and snowmelt run off slow-draining ground, and a dense layer sits not far below the surface across much of the glaciated northeast.

Water perches above that layer from fall into late spring, so low spots, drives and footings stay wet. Snowmelt and heavy rain add to it, and wetlands are common. That is why clean stone such as 2B beats a packed base in wet spots.

The same runoff scours roadside ditches, culvert outlets and gravel drives and cuts into stream banks. Riprap armor those edges.

Timing matters too. Snow and soft ground can last well into spring, so base work waits until the ground has thawed and drained, then runs into fall. Do not put base stone down on frozen or muddy ground.

Long, cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Soils that stay wet above the dense till layer can heave under a thin base, so the base has to be thick enough and drained. Frost depth commonly runs 36 to 42 inches, set by each municipality.
