Start with 304 limestone. It is the base stone this market builds on, and it sets up the flatwork that follows.

Ground and Conditions in Tiro

A paver patio fails from the bottom. Tiro sits on glacial till, clay loam to silty clay over gently rolling ground, and clayey till drains slowly. Water ponds in flat swales and low spots after spring rain and snowmelt. It sits until ditches, tile or dry weather clear it.

Under a patio, that trapped water works on a thin base. The bedding washes, the pavers rock, and edges drop. Fix it with a compacted 304 limestone base and a clean drainage layer, not with a thicker sand course.

Frost adds to it. Repeated freeze-thaw heaves wet clay under drives and patios and lifts shallow posts and pads. Frost depth runs 32 inches in Columbus and Dayton, set by each local building department. Build so water leaves the base and the base stays tight.

Timing matters 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.

Materials for Tiro Projects

Bedding is where a patio is won or lost. Set pavers on Screenings, fine crushed limestone from about 1/4 inch down to dust. It levels, packs firm, and holds a paver true.

Set the bedding over a compacted base of 304 limestone. This is the standard Ohio base stone, used under driveways, parking pads, shed bases and asphalt. Order it as 304 Aggregate Base.

Pavers and slabs that need a sand bed do better on Washed Sand. It beds and levels under slabs. For brick and block work and paver joints, use Mason Sand.

Where water has to move, use clean stone by number. #57 Limestone handles drainage, French drains and drive surfacing. #8 Crushed Stone fits pipe bedding, paver joints and fine drainage. #4 Crushed Stone takes heavy drainage and trench bottoms.

Lawn and bed work follows the same logic. Top Soil, sold screened or pulverized, gives roots something to grow in over heavy clay subsoil.

Delivery to Tiro and the Surrounding Area

Order online when you are ready. Choose tons or yards, whichever you price by, then size the load with the calculator before checkout.

Pick a delivery date at checkout and a dump truck brings the material to your site in Tiro, in Crawford County. We also deliver to Bucyrus, Galion, Crestline and New Washington.

Two things make delivery go smoothly. Note where the truck can back in and dump, since bulk loads need room and a clear path. Note any soft ground, because a loaded truck will not cross saturated clay.

Have your quantity settled before the truck rolls. The calculator does that part.
