Materials for Fairfield Projects

Landscape work leads here. Beds, borders, dry creek beds and ground cover take decorative rock, and the right stone holds its color through the dry season.

• River Cobble for decorative beds, borders and dry creek beds.
• Large River Rock for heavier dry creek beds and swales where runoff needs slowing.
• Natural Pea Gravel for play areas, walkways and bedding.
• Stone Screenings for paths and patios laid over a compacted base.
• Shredded Mulch for beds and tree rings, holding moisture through the long dry season.

Every one of those beds wants something solid underneath. Set a compacted Class 2 base first, and the decorative layer stays put instead of sinking.

Drainage jobs call for clean stone with no fines. Drain Rock handles French drains, drywells, downspout runs and the space behind a retaining wall. 3/4" Drain Rock does the same work in a washed size, and water moves through it freely.

Slopes above a creek bank or a culvert outlet need armor. RipRap, also called rock slope protection, holds soil against winter storm runoff.

Drives and pads start with Class 2 Base, the standard California base material, specified by Caltrans as Class 2 aggregate base. Top a compacted base with Driveway Gravel for the wearing surface.

Ground and Conditions in Fairfield

Soils change over short distances in this zone. Sandy soils sit along parts of the shoreline, but heavy clay is extensive in the Coast Range valleys. Clay cracks when dry and swells when wet.

That matters under a driveway. An under-built base over clay moves with the seasons, and the surface above it cracks and ruts. Build the base thick and compact it in lifts, and the clay below stops driving the outcome.

Rainfall arrives mostly in a few large winter storms. Sandy ground soaks it up fast. Clay soil sheds it, so water runs off and pools. A drainage layer of clean stone relieves that.

Timing follows the same pattern. The dry season from late spring into fall is the window for base, driveway and paver work. Summer fog rolls in near the shore, but winter rain and saturated clay are what hold a job up.
