Material Selection by Project Type

• Driveways: Crusher run works well as a base because it compacts tight. For a finished surface, consider a clean gravel like #57 or Natural Pea Gravel if you prefer a looser top layer.
• Drainage: Use Crushed Stone such as #57 or #67. Fines in crusher run can clog drain pipes, so avoid those for french drains or foundation footing systems.
• Patios and walkways: Start with a compacted base of crusher run. Then add limestone sand as a leveling bed before placing pavers or flagstone.
• Landscape beds and soil work: Top soil or garden soil improves plant growth. Natural Pea Gravel or decorative stone works for weed suppression and visual appeal around shrubs.

Local Conditions That Affect Material Choice

Pickwick Dam sits along the Tennessee River, so the land includes both flat low areas and slightly sloping uplands. The soil here ranges from Top Soil in the better drained spots to heavier clay in the lower sections.

Freeze thaw cycles are common enough that a compacted base of crusher run helps prevent winter heave in driveways. Heavy rain events mean good drainage matters for patios and low areas.

Properties vary from older lots in town to larger acreages on the rural edges. Driveways on acreages often need a thick base, while tighter in town lots may require careful material selection to avoid runoff onto neighboring ground.
