Materials for Tickfaw Projects

Beds, borders and dry creek beds call for rounded stone, and that is a different family from the angular material you compact under a drive. Rounded rock does not lock together, so it stays where it is placed and does not hold a slope.

River Rock covers bed surfaces, tree rings and open ground where nothing has to compact. Large River Rock builds dry creek beds, decorative edging and low banks.

For a dry creek bed, the rounded cobble is the visible layer, not the armour.

Natural Pea Gravel suits paths, dog runs and play areas. It is rounded and small, so it works underfoot and around pipe bedding.

Large River Rock and Natural Pea Gravel both stay loose by design.

If you are surfacing a drive instead, the base goes down first. 610 Limestone is the Louisiana base size, stone dust up to about two inches, and the fines bind it as it is rolled.

#57 Limestone is the clean open graded stone at about 3/4 inch, with no fines, for a drive surface and for drainage.

For a drain, a patio or a bed edge, match the stone to the job:

Beds also take a surface dressing. Shredded Mulch covers beds, tree rings and slopes, and it is a dressing rather than a structural layer.

Ground and Conditions in Tickfaw

Across the Florida parishes pine flatwoods, the profile runs the same way: a sandy or silt loam surface over a dense, slowly permeable subsoil. The surface looks free draining.

The layer under it is not.

That subsoil holds the water table up into the root zone through the wet season. A base built on flat ground here sits over ground that stays wet, so an under-built base loses its shape.

Drainage is the layer that has to work. Clean washed stone such as Drain Rock moves water because the fines are taken out, while 610 limestone binds and hardens because the fines stay in.

Bare flat ground also sheds water in sheets, and the sandy surface cuts into rills where grade is left exposed. RipRap armours a bank or a ditch edge, and rounded stone will not do that job.

Work runs year round here. What sets the schedule is how wet the ground is, not how cold it gets.
