Materials for Tiffin Projects

Soil and fill do the heavy lifting on most jobs here. Grade first, then build. Fill dirt levels low spots before a base goes down, and screened topsoil finishes lawns and beds over heavy clay subsoil.

Base and washed stone carry the load-bearing work. Sand and decorative stone finish the detail.

• Top Soil: lawn and bed prep. Screened or pulverized, spread over graded ground.
• Garden Soil: raised beds and planting areas that need loose, workable material.
• Fill Dirt: grading, leveling, backfill, and raising low spots before a base.
• 304 Aggregate Base: the standard Ohio base stone.
• 411 Stone: topping for gravel drives and parking areas, and bedding under pavers.
• #57 Limestone: drainage, French drains, and concrete aggregate.
• Screenings: paver and patio bedding, leveling, and firm path surfaces.
• Mason Sand: brick and block work, paver joints, and play sand.
• Washed Sand: leveling, bedding, and base under slabs.
• River Rock: decorative beds, borders, walkways, and dry creek beds.

Ground and Conditions in Tiffin

Water drives every material decision in Seneca County. Clayey till drains slowly, so rain and snowmelt pond in flat swales and low spots until ditches or tile clear it. Valley sand and gravel drain fast.

That split matters. On slow ground, plan for drainage stone and a compacted base. On valley ground, water moves quickly and banks can scour after heavy rain.

Bare graded soil washes in a storm. Seed it, mulch it, or armor the bank. Steep river valley sides slump when saturated, so hold them with RipRap or heavy stone.

Timing is real here too. Base, driveway, and paver work starts once the ground thaws and the flats dry out in spring, then runs into late fall. Frozen or saturated clay will not compact well.

Cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw, which heaves wet clay under drives and patios and lifts shallow posts and pads. Frost depth is 32 inches in Columbus and Dayton, set by each local building department.

Drainage and stone choices

Match the clean stone to the job. #57 Limestone is the size Ohio suppliers stock most widely for French drains and drive surfacing. #4 Crushed Stone handles heavy drainage, construction entrances, and trench bottoms.

For tighter work, #8 Crushed Stone suits pipe bedding and paver joints. Drain Rock covers downspout runs and foundation drains. #89 Crushed Stone fits joints and fine drainage.
