MATERIAL OPTIONS

CLASS II SAND

Great compaction and drainage characteristics. Used for base material, backfill, pipe bedding, septic systems, etc. MDOT Spec. Best Seller.

FILL SAND

Compacting sand used for fill. Has fines and clay mix opposed to Class II. Suitable for most new construction projects and cost efficient when applicable.

CLAY

Typically used for filling in deep foundations after demolition to bring site back to grade. Also good for building berms and lining ponds. Wet. No drainage.

SCREENED TOPSOIL

Screened topsoil used to grow grass in lawn or garden. Holds water and improves drainage. Roots and other organics are screened out. Clean and workable.

UNSCREENED DIRT

Has clumps, roots and other organics in it. Often referred to as farm dirt. Holds lots of moisture and tillable. Clumpy.

SANDY BLACK DIRT

Sandier version of unscreened black dirt. Plentiful at our mining locations, can be used to screen with richer black soil to produce ideal material.

6A STONE

Ideal product used in drain fields and septic tanks. Sometimes used for concrete. Slightly smaller than "river rock" or landscape stone, but commonly used nonetheless.

PEASTONE

Drains very well! Used in foundation as footing drainage layer, mixed for concrete blocks, and can be sling shot into hard to reach areas.
