Staymat is the everyday base here, and washed stone is what keeps water moving. The ground under this town is thin stony till over slate and phyllite, so drainage is usually the first thing a job needs.

Materials for Fair Haven Projects

Water is the problem on most Fair Haven jobs, so start with washed stone. It is clean, it has no fines to pack tight, and it gives water somewhere to go instead of letting it sit against a foundation.

Drain Rock is the workhorse for curtain drains, footing drains and downspout runs. 3/4" Crushed Stone covers the same ground in a washed inch size, and it doubles as hardstanding through mud season.

For a drywell, #57 Stone is a common pick, with #67 Stone one size down for tighter trenches. #4 Crushed Stone suits heavy drainage and trench bottoms in soft ground.

Downspout runs and tight pipe bedding want a smaller washed stone. 3/8" Crushed Stone and #89 Crushed Stone both fit that job.

Once the water is handled, the base goes in. Staymat is the dense graded crushed base this state calls road base, running from about an inch down to dust so it locks up under a roller.

It takes driveways, parking pads and shed bases.

Bank Run Gravel is pit gravel screened rather than crushed, and it works as subbase and bulk fill under a thinner crushed top course. Stone Dust beds pavers and flagstone and binds a path surface.

Where a bank is cut or a culvert outlet is bare, Stone Fill lines the ditch and holds the bank. Type I runs about 1 inch to 12 inches.

Ground and Conditions in Fair Haven

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

That shapes your timing. If your site is up on the ridges, the ground holds water longer and a load can sit on soft ground instead of going where you want it.

Under the topsoil is thin stony till over slate, phyllite and shale. Slate fragments pack tight and drain slowly, so a drainage layer earns its place before a base goes down.

Runoff comes off the slopes onto the valley floor, and the short steep streams that cross it run fast after heavy rain. That is where gully cutting and washouts show up, and where stone fill does its work.

Winters bring repeated freeze and thaw, and gravel drives heave each spring. Frost depth is set by the town, so confirm footing depth with the town office before you build.
