Materials for Garden City Projects

This is fill and sub-base country. If you are raising grade, building a pad, or fixing a low spot, start with Fill Dirt to bring the ground up to level. Cap it with Base Rock. That base rock is the standard material under drives, parking pads, shed bases and farm lanes around here.

Where you want a binding, compacting course with fines in it, Crusher Run does that job. It locks together under a plate or a roller and holds its shape.

For a drive that is already built up, top it with Driveway Gravel. For a walkway or garden path, Walkway Gravel gives a finer, walkable surface.

Drainage is its own category. #57 Limestone, sold locally as 1 inch clean, is washed stone with no fines, so water moves through it. You will see it in French drains, septic fields and behind retaining walls. Drain Rock covers the same ground around foundations and downspouts.

Sand and soil round out most orders. Mason Sand for block and paver joints, Top Soil and Shredded Mulch for beds and lawns over rocky, clay-heavy ground.

Ground and Conditions in Garden City

The ground here is clay, silty clay and sandy clay weathered from shale, limestone and sandstone. Under the flatter ground sits dense clay subsoil that drains slowly, so an under-built base is where trouble starts.

Clay soaks up little rain. Storm water runs off slopes fast and stands on flat ground, and through winter and early spring it perches above the clay subsoil. A base rock course laid on soft, saturated clay pumps and ruts instead of compacting, which is why the fill and base work matters more than the surface rock.

Runoff off bare clay slopes also cuts rills and gullies, and heavy storms eat into creek banks. Fill, compact, and get a base rock course down before the ground sits open through a wet season.

Winter here freezes and thaws repeatedly, with January nights below freezing and most days thawing. Frost depth follows the local building code, deeper toward Kansas City than at the southern end of the zone. Late spring through fall is the easier window for base and driveway work, once the clay has drained.

Questions from Garden City Buyers

What is the best base under pavers in Garden City?

Compacted base rock over a stable sub-base, then a bedding layer. The clay subsoil here drains slowly, so build the base course thick enough to carry the load and keep water from sitting under the pavers. Try our Screenings for the bedding layer, since the fine crushed stone sets flat and packs tight.

Do you supply contractors working in Garden City?

Yes. Contractors order the same way: pick the material, choose the quantity by the ton or yard, and set a delivery date at checkout. Bulk loads of fill dirt, base rock, crusher run and washed stone go out to job sites across Cass County, including Belton, Raymore, Harrisonville, Pleasant Hill and Peculiar.
