Start with staymat. It is the Vermont yard word for a dense graded crushed base that runs from about 3/4 inch or 1 inch down to dust, and it locks up tight under a roller.

Materials for East Arlington Projects

Base and driveway surfacing come first here. Staymat is the everyday Vermont word for road base, and it is the base a drive, parking pad or shed base sits on.

Crushed gravel is the spec name for the top course over a bank run gravel subbase. Vermont town road standards call for a crushed gravel surface course, and VTrans specifies it under 704.05.

Dense graded crushed stone is the same idea written as a spec: crushed stone graded from 3 inches down to fines, for work that wants a harder, more angular base than pit gravel.

Under all of that goes Bank Run Gravel. Bank run is gravel taken from a pit or bank and screened rather than crushed, and Vermont road standards ask for a foot or more of it under a thinner crushed top course.

For resurfacing, Driveway Gravel tops a compacted base after mud season chews up the running surface. Walkway Gravel gives paths and walkways a finer, walkable surface than drive gravel.

Washed stone, sand and soil

Washed stone goes where water has to move. 3/4" Crushed Stone handles drainage beds, curtain drains, pipe surround and mud-season hardstanding.

Drain Rock covers curtain drains, footing drains, dry wells and downspout runs. VTrans carries the same idea as Drainage Aggregate under 704.16.

Stone fill, the Vermont word for riprap, lines steep ditches, armours culvert inlets and outlets, and holds stream banks. VTrans grades it by type, with Type I running about 1 inch to 12 inches.

Sand and soil finish the job. Mason Sand beds brick and block work and paver joints.

Top Soil, which Vermont landscapers call screened loam, builds lawns and beds over stony till and heavy clay.

Ground and Conditions in East Arlington

Water drives the work. Rain, snowmelt and heavy storms come off the Taconic and Green Mountain slopes onto the valley floor, and it has to go somewhere.

Across the Taconics and the Valley of Vermont, that water lands on thin stony till over slate, phyllite and shale bedrock. Slow-draining till and slate fragments pack tight, so a base that holds water fails early.

On the short steep streams that cross the valley, runoff is flashy. Expect bank scour after heavy rain, gully cutting in slate-fragment fill, and washouts where hillside drainage crosses a road.

That is why drainage stone and stone fill belong in the plan, not in the cleanup. Clean washed stone moves water; fines-bearing base locks up and sheds it off the surface.

Timing matters too. The valley floor dries early and gives one of the longer working seasons in Vermont, while the hill towns on either side stay soft several weeks longer through mud season.

Cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw and reliable frost heaving in gravel drives each spring. Frost depth is set by the town, so confirm footing depth with the town office, and expect a deeper figure on the ridges than on the valley floor.
