Order Gravel, Stone and Soil in New Holstein, WI

Rain and snowmelt soak slowly into the tight clay around New Holstein, so water ponds on flat ground and runs off to ditches. Gravel and aggregate delivery in New Holstein, WI has to answer that. Wisconsin Rock Supply stocks traffic bond, the dense graded base this market calls for, plus the drainage stone that moves water away from a pad.

Materials for New Holstein Projects

Most jobs here start below grade. You raise the pad, pack the sub-base, then surface it. Order by what you are building.

Driveways and parking pads

Start with Breaker Run over soft or clay ground. It is coarse crushed stone with fines, and it bridges muck that would swallow a thin lift. Cap it with 3/4" Traffic Bond, the crushed dense graded base that packs hard. Top an existing drive with Driveway Gravel.

Patios, walkways and pavers

Bed pavers on Screenings, also sold as stone dust. It packs to a hard, level surface. Screenings also make a tight top dressing on a drive.

Drains and wet ground

French drains, downspout runs and foundation drains want washed stone with the fines screened out. Drain Rock handles most of it. For a wet, slow-draining yard, wrap the trench and let clear stone carry the water to daylight.

Beds and soil

For planting, use Garden Soil, a topsoil and compost blend sold here as garden mix. It feeds raised beds and planting areas. Mulch the beds after.

Ground and Conditions in New Holstein

This is clay country. Calumet County sits on clay-rich, limy glacial till and old lake-bed clays and silts that drain slowly. Water sits on flat ground instead of soaking in. Build a thin base over that and it will heave and rut.

Frost decides the depth. Frost reaches at least 48 inches for footings under the Uniform Dwelling Code, and 48 to 72 inches under pavement by late winter. Wet clay over still-frozen ground cannot drain at all, so it turns soft.

Two things follow. First, dig deeper and use a coarse breaker run sub-base before traffic bond goes down. Second, time the work. Clay sites stay soft after the thaw and after heavy rain, so base and paver work goes best from late spring into fall, once the ground has drained.

Spring weight limits on posted county, town and village roads are part of the season too. Plan heavier loads around them.

Delivery to New Holstein and the Surrounding Area

Order online and pick your quantity. Bulk material sells by the ton or by the cubic yard, so measure your area and depth first. A pad that is longer or wider than you think will move the number.

Then choose delivery. Bulk loads drop on a driveway, a pad or a staging spot you can reach with a truck. Keep the pile off soft ground after rain, or the truck will not get out.

Wisconsin Rock Supply delivers across Calumet County, including Chilton, Brillion, Sherwood, Hilbert and Forest Junction. If your site sits outside New Holstein, say so when you order.
