Materials for Roswell Projects

Washed stone is the answer to hardpan ground. Rain that cannot soak down has to travel, so drainage work matters here more than in most places.

Start at the coarse end. RipRap armors arroyo banks and culvert outlets against flash flow.

Drain Rock fills French drains, dry wells and foundation drains.

Then the trench and bedding sizes. #57 Stone and #67 Stone are washed, open-graded stone for drainage trenches and concrete aggregate.

#8 Crushed Stone and #89 Crushed Stone handle tight bedding and narrow joints.

3/4 Crushed Rock drains a drip strip against a foundation and surfaces a drive. 3/8" Crushed Stone tops a compacted base course.

Base course is the compacted base. It goes under drives, parking pads and shed slabs.

Base Course takes a drive from graded dirt to a firm surface.

Finer material finishes the work. Crusher Fines pack to a firm, walkable crust for paths, patios and dog runs, and they come by color.

Natural Pea Gravel covers drainage beds and xeriscape planting.

Soil and sand round out a job. Topsoil and garden soil go over thin alkaline ground.

Mason sand, sold locally as plaster sand, beds block, brick and stucco.

Ground and Conditions in Roswell

Work runs year round here. Summer heat and the July to September storms are the interruptions, not cold.

Time a delivery around those storms and the ground stays workable.

Across the Pecos Valley and Permian Basin, subsoil carries caliche and gypsum, and solution sinkholes and shallow karst make local drainage unpredictable. Water that cannot soak away has to be routed somewhere.

That is why a drainage layer earns its place on a job here. Set washed stone where the water collects, then let it run clear of the structure.

Freezing nights are common from December into February, but the ground rarely freezes deep. Frost heave is a small factor next to shrink, swell and salt.
