Material Selection by Project Type

• Driveways: For a durable driveway base, choose a compactable material like 21AA Limestone. It locks together under compaction and supports heavy loads.
• Drainage: Crushed Stone like 6A or 2NS Sand allows water to move freely. Avoid materials with fines that can clog drainage systems.
• Patios and walkways: Use a compactable base of crushed stone, then a layer of fine sand for paver setting. This prevents shifting and settling.
• Landscape beds and soil work: Decorative stone, mulch, or top soil can define garden areas. Top soil provides nutrients for new planting beds.

Local Conditions That Affect Material Choice

Whitmore Lake ZIP 48189 includes a mix of lakefront lots, rural acreage, and newer suburban subdivisions. Soil types vary from sandy near the lake to heavier clay in upland areas.

Freeze-thaw cycles in Michigan winters can cause heaving on poorly prepared driveways. Base layers with compactable materials help reduce movement.

Sloped driveways and narrow access lanes are common in the older parts of the ZIP. Proper material selection and drainage planning are important for long-term performance.
