Materials for Afton Projects

Raising grade is the first job on most ground here, so fill and sub-base carry the weight of the work. Build the pad up with pit run, then cap it with crushed base.

Pit run is unprocessed pit gravel. Use it for deep fill, raising grade and sub-base under a crushed base course, never as a finished driving surface.

Crushed base is processed and compacts into a firm surface. It suits driveways, shop and shed pads, parking areas and county-style lanes.

For a patio or a paver walk, bed the units on washed sand and sweep stone screenings into the joints. Both hold a flat surface.

Screenings also pack into a path that stays put in wind.

For a drain, order washed rock. Washing the fines out is the whole point, so it works in perimeter and curtain drains, foundation drains and downspout runs.

Top soil and garden soil cover grading and bed prep where native ground is thin, stony or alkaline.

Ground and Conditions in Afton

Ground across the Jackson Hole, Star Valley and the Snake River country runs from coarse glacial outwash to deep silt and clay with a high water table. Two lots on the same street can drain nothing alike.

That is why an under-built base shows up fast. Silt and clay hold water, and a thin base course over wet ground moves under a truck.

Snowmelt drives the rest. High spring water tables on the valley floors push water up under pads and drives, so a drainage layer belongs in the plan.

Spring high water also scours banks and cuts rills on bare cut slopes. Riprap armors stream banks, culvert outlets and ditch lining against that runoff.

This is the shortest building season in the state. Snow holds the ground into late spring, so the window for base, driveway and paver work is squeezed at both ends.

Frost is deep and long-lying under snow cover, and the ground releases all at once. A footing depth for any structure comes from the building official or a soils engineer for the site.

Questions About Base and Delivery in Afton

What is the best base under pavers in Afton?

Use crushed base, also called 3/4 minus, compacted as the structural layer, then bed the pavers on washed sand. Sweep stone screenings into the joints.

On ground with a high water table, put washed rock or #57 stone under the base so water has somewhere to go instead of sitting in the silt.
