Materials for Fairmount Projects

Driveways and building pads are the heart of this market. A driveway here usually goes down in two lifts: a coarse base that carries the load, then a finer layer that locks together and sheds water.

• GAB (Graded Aggregate Base): the standard Georgia base for driveways, parking pads and building pads. Compact it in lifts for a firm, load-bearing pad.
• Crusher Run: crush and run binds and compacts hard. Good for driveways and the base under patios and pads.
• #4 Crushed Stone: coarse stone for the first course on a new drive, construction entrances and heavy drainage.
• #57 Granite: Georgia #57 is Crushed Stone. Used for driveway topping, French drains and drainage behind walls.
• Driveway Gravel: for surfacing an existing drive or topping a compacted base.

Around the drive and the house, three more families come up often. Sand, soil and decorative stone each solve a different problem at the same address.

Ground and Conditions in Fairmount

Rain is the driver here. It runs off the ridges onto flatter valley floors where clay soil holds water, and where limestone lies underneath, water can drain underground through sinkholes and caves. That shapes how you build a base.

Under a driveway, wet clay stays soft and pumps if you place stone straight on it. Excavate down, crown the surface so water sheds to the shoulders, and compact in thin lifts, one at a time. A coarse stone like #4 Crushed Stone or Drain Rock as the first course gives water somewhere to go before the finer material goes on top.

Runoff from the ridge slopes also scours ditches and creek banks, and bare clay washes easily in heavy rain. Line culvert outlets and creek banks with RipRap, specified as Type 1 or Type 3, and seed bare ground before the next storm.

Winter and spring bring long wet spells that leave valley clay soft, so plan heavy work around them. Freezing nights happen and snow or ice can briefly stop a job, but frost depth is shallow and the Georgia residential code sets a 12 inch minimum footing depth. Your base depth is carried by clay and drainage, not by frost heave.

Order online by the ton or by the yard. Measure your driveway length, width and depth, then let the calculator turn it into tons or yards, allowing for crushed stone settling as it is worked. Tell us what the material is for and we will help you settle the quantity.
