Materials for Gamerco Projects

Raising grade and building up a pad is the work that starts most Gamerco projects. Whether the pad is for a shed, a shop or a house, the layers under it decide how the surface behaves.

Fill Dirt goes down first to raise grade and backfill before anything else. It is bulk fill, so it brings a low spot up to the level you want to build from.

Above the fill, Base Course is the compacted layer under drives, parking pads and slab bases. New Mexico calls it base course, and crews here also ask for Type I or Type II base course and 3/4 minus.

For a driveway, a lift of fill dirt under a compacted base course gives the surface something to sit on. Driveway Gravel then surfaces the drive or tops the compacted base on a long rural approach.

For a patio or a path, Crusher Fines is the walkable choice. These screened crushed rock fines pack to a firm crust and are sold by color across New Mexico yards.

For a drain, Drain Rock feeds French drains, dry wells and downspout splash runs. Canale and roof water has to go somewhere, and the shale clay around here will not take it.

Sand and soil round out the list. Mason Sand is listed locally as plaster sand and used for block, stucco and paver joints.

Ground and Conditions in Gamerco

Across the Colorado Plateau and San Juan Basin, the ground runs from thin sandy soil over slickrock to deep expansive clays weathered from Mancos and Fruitland shale. Those clays swell when they are wet and shrink when they are dry.

That movement is what an under-built base fails to handle. A pad poured or paved straight onto clay shifts with the seasons, so grade and a compacted layer matter more than the surface color.

Water is the other half of it. Shale clay and slickrock shed water instead of taking it, so monsoon runoff reaches the washes fast and ponds in low yards.

Arroyos cut and gullies form in bare ground during monsoon storms, and wind strips sand off anything unplanted.

Timing is part of the job. Base course and hardscape work runs from spring into late fall.

Winter freezes the ground, and wet shale clay in a March thaw will not compact.

Questions Gamerco Buyers Ask

What is the best base under pavers in Gamerco?

Compacted base course is the base under pavers, with a bedding layer over it. Stone Screenings bed pavers and fill the joints, though New Mexico yards more often reach for crusher fines here.

The clay in this part of the state swells wet and shrinks dry, so the base layer has to carry the load and hold its grade.

Yes. New Mexico Rock Supply sells to contractors and homeowners alike, and you order online in the same way either way.
