Rocky hillside ground and steep winter runoff shape what you need. Start with the base, then surface it.

Materials for Garden Valley Projects

Driveways come first. Class 2 base, also called Class II base rock or Class 2 aggregate base, is the standard California base material for driveways, parking pads, and the compacted layer under pavers, slabs and Stone Screenings paths. Caltrans specifies it as Class 2 aggregate base. Recycled Class 2 base works the same way when you want Road Base or asphalt instead.

Surface the drive with Driveway Gravel over that compacted base. For paths and garden walks, Walkway Gravel gives a finer, walkable finish. Crusher Run binds and compacts where you want one material doing both jobs.

Water has to go somewhere. Drain Rock handles French drains, drywells, downspout runs and drainage behind retaining walls. 3/4" Drain Rock, also called #57 stone, is clean stone with no fines, so water moves through it.

Sand and soil finish the job. Mason Sand sets brick and block and fills paver joints. Washed Sand levels and beds under slabs. Top Soil builds up lawns and beds over clay or hardpan, and Garden Soil fills raised beds.

Ground and Conditions in Garden Valley

Winter rain is the driver. It runs off fast over shallow soil and bedrock on slopes, and clay pockets hold it. Drives and pads need to shed water, and runoff from slopes above needs a path around or under the work.

That shapes the build. Compact Class 2 base in lifts so the drive sheds instead of sponging. Put a clean drainage layer where water collects, and use drain rock or 3/4 inch crushed rock in trenches and behind walls.

Steep slopes, road cuts and creek banks take a beating in heavy rain. Rip rap, also called rock slope protection, armors banks and culvert outlets. Caltrans calls placed rock on slopes rock slope protection. Cobble and large river rock slow runoff in dry creek beds and swales.

Timing matters. Work runs best from late spring into fall. Winter storms turn clay and steep drives to mud, and the higher ground can see snow delays in mid-winter.
