Materials for Tionesta Projects

Grading and bed prep drive most orders here. Get the subgrade right before any stone goes down, and the rest of the job goes easier.

Soil, Fill and Bed Prep

• Fill Dirt raises grade and fills low spots. Spread it first, then cap it with base stone or topsoil.
• Top Soil is screened to pull out stones and roots. Use it for lawns, final grading and bed prep.
• Garden Soil feeds raised beds and planting areas.
• Shredded Mulch holds moisture in beds and tree rings through the summer.

Base Stone

2A Modified, also called modified stone or 2A modified stone, is crushed stone with the fines left in. It packs hard under driveways, parking pads and patio bases. Buyers who ask for crusher run usually want this same job done.

Washed Stone for Drainage

2B Stone is clean, washed 3/4 inch stone with no fines, so water moves through it instead of packing tight. Use it in French drains, behind retaining walls and under shed pads in wet spots. Yards here sell the same size as #57 Stone.

Ground and Conditions in Tionesta

Rain and snowmelt run fast off the steep valley sides here. That water lands in narrow valleys, roadside ditches, culverts and low drives, and it arrives all at once.

Plan for it. Put a clean drainage layer where water collects, and keep fines out of that layer so it stays open. Runoff off steep slopes also gullies gravel roads, ditches and culvert outlets, and scours stream banks. On banks and outlets, armor the soil with rip rap sized to the flow: R-4 for ditches, larger R-5 and up for banks and streambanks.

Ground under the whole area is sandstone, siltstone, shale and conglomerate beneath thin to moderately deep, stony soils. Coal beds and old mine ground turn up in parts of the zone, so check what you are building over before you design a base.

Cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw cycles, and the higher ground runs cooler and wetter than most of the state. A thin or poorly drained base breaks up under that cycle. Frost depth is commonly 36 to 42 inches, set by each municipality, with the deeper figures in the mountains.

Timing matters. Winter snow and frozen ground limit base, driveway and paver work to the thawed, dry months from spring into fall. Base stone should not go down on frozen or muddy ground.
