Materials for Redford Projects

Landscape work carries a lot of Redford yards, so start with the decorative side. River rock and large river rock build dry creek beds and borders that hold up through spring runoff. Pea stone is the walkable, tidy choice for paths, dog runs and play areas.

For anything that takes weight, drop a compacted 21AA limestone base first. That is the standard Michigan driveway base, and 22A road gravel is a different class for unpaved drives and private roads.

Drainage is its own job. Drain rock feeds French drains, drywells and downspout runs where the ground stays wet. Around patios and pavers, bedding materials and soils finish the build.

Washed sand levels under slabs, and mason sand sets brick and block and fills paver joints. Screened topsoil and garden soil rebuild beds once the stone is set.

Ground and Conditions in Redford

Redford sits on the Southeast lake plain, a flat former glacial lake bed of clay, silty clay and clay loam, crossed in places by sandy ridges and channels. Most of the ground drains poorly.

That soil is why an under-built base fails here. Water stands in low spots and much of the land leans on ditches and tile drains, so a thin base softens instead of holding.

Spring snowmelt and heavy rain push ditches and streams up fast, and that moving water scours banks. Riprap armors culvert outlets and slope edges against it.

Frost comes out of the ground every spring and traps water in soaked soil, so roadbeds, gravel drives and thin bases rut. Freeze-thaw sets the working season, and frozen ground stops compaction in winter.

Frost laws also limit heavy trucks on many roads during the thaw, so plan base, driveway and paver work from the thaw into late fall. The Michigan Residential Code lists a frost depth of 42 inches.
