Materials for Dover Projects

Start with the ground under the work. Fill dirt levels low spots and backfills before anything else goes down. Topsoil and garden soil finish the job on lawns, beds and raised plantings.

Then build up. Base, washed stone, sand and decorative stone cover the rest.

• Fill Dirt: grading, leveling and backfill before a base goes down.
• Top Soil: screened or pulverized for lawn and bed prep over heavy clay subsoil.
• Garden Soil: raised beds and planting areas.
• 304 Aggregate Base: 304 limestone for driveways, parking pads and the base course under asphalt.
• 411 Stone: 411 limestone topping for gravel drives and bedding under pavers.

Decorative stone finishes the yard. River rock and Natural Pea Gravel handle beds, borders and walkways.

Ground and Conditions in Dover

Water drives everything here. Steep slopes shed heavy rain fast into narrow valleys, so runoff scours ditches and culverts while low bottoms flood. Water seeping from hillsides softens cuts and fills.

Plan drainage before you surface anything. Clean stone by number moves water: #57 limestone for French drains and drive surfacing, #8 crushed stone for pipe bedding and tight joints, #4 crushed stone for trench bottoms and heavy drainage.

Clayey slope debris and soft red shale slip after long wet spells. Landslides and slumps on steep hillsides are common, and stream banks scour in the narrow valleys. Rip rap armors ditch banks, culvert outlets and pond edges against that runoff.

Timing matters. Long wet spells saturate hillsides and set off slips, so cutting, filling and driveway work on slopes goes best in drier weather. The working season runs from spring into late fall.

Winters bring repeated freeze-thaw. It pries weathered rock apart and heaves wet clayey soil on cut slopes and on drives built into hillsides. Frost depth is set by each local building department, so confirm the local figure before digging footings or posts.
