Materials for Hermitage Projects

Raising grade and building a pad is the work that sets everything above it. Fill dirt goes down first to lift low ground out of the wet, then a compacted base carries the load.

Order Fill Dirt for bulk fill and building a pad up before a base course goes on. Order SB-2 Base over it for driveways, parking pads, shed pads and pipe bedding.

If you are building to a written standard, the same material is specified as Class 7 aggregate base course. Use it where a street, sidewalk or parking spec calls for it.

For a patio, screenings bed the pavers and fill the joints. For a drain, #57 limestone is the washed size that lets water move.

Washed sand beds and levels under slabs, and screened top soil finishes the lawn and beds around the work. Garden soil fills raised beds and planting areas.

Ground and Conditions in Hermitage

Across the West Gulf Coastal Plain the ground runs to deep acid sandy loam and sandy clay. Sandy topsoil sits on a dense clay subsoil, so water soaks in, perches and then runs sideways.

Flat ground and slow bayous keep the water table high for days after heavy rain. A pad built without enough fill under it stays soft no matter what goes on top.

That is why grade comes first here. Fill dirt lifts the pad, and SB-2 base goes over it once the ground is built up.

Bare sand cuts and gullies quickly under intense Gulf rainfall. Thunderstorm runoff scours drive shoulders and pipe outlets, so drainage stone and rip rap at outlets protect the edges of the work.

Work runs all year in this part of Arkansas. Winter and spring rain on sandy clay is the limit, and a long wet spell keeps hauling ground soft.

Freezes are short and shallow here. Wet ground, not frost, is the reason a base gets built to the right depth.

Questions About Material in Hermitage

What is the best base under pavers in Hermitage?

SB-2 base is the compacted base under a paver patio, and screenings bed the pavers on top of it. Screenings are the Arkansas trade name for crusher fines, and they give you a tight surface for bedding and joints.

Build the base first, then bed the pavers.
