Freeze-thaw cycles common in Indiana can cause frost heave, settling, and reduced compaction if materials are placed on wet or frozen ground. For long-lasting results, plan proper drainage, use an appropriate compactable base, and avoid major installations when the ground is frozen or saturated.

The best window is generally spring through early fall when ground conditions are dryer and contractors are available for finishing work. Avoid scheduling major earthwork during prolonged wet periods or when frost is in the ground to reduce settling and compaction problems.

Yes, city, county, and HOA rules can affect surface type, runoff controls, and required setbacks in Shelbyville, so check with Shelbyville municipal offices or your HOA before selecting materials. Stormwater rules may favor permeable options or require erosion controls for sloped sites.

Well-graded aggregates and properly sized base material paired with geotextile fabric help drainage and reduce erosion across varied Indiana soils. Combining slope management, diversion swales, and appropriately sized aggregate for the surface and base will produce the best results for driveways, paths, and landscaped slopes.

Most deliveries use tri-axle dump trucks, so confirm that driveways, gates, and streets can accommodate large vehicles and turning radiuses. Note any narrow streets, low trees, utility lines, or weight-restricted roads in your order notes and contact our team if you expect tight access so we can arrange the best delivery method.

Use the online material calculator to enter the area and desired depth to get a reliable estimate; factors like compaction and material type change the final amount, so allow some extra for waste and settling. Remember our 3-ton minimum when planning small projects and request a quote if you need help with conversions.

Contact our team as soon as possible; changes are easiest before the order is dispatched and may be limited once the supplier and truck are scheduled. We will do our best to accommodate requests, but modifications and cancellations may be subject to supplier or trucking constraints.

Policies vary by supplier and natural materials can show color and texture variations, so warranty and return terms differ across suppliers.

Contractors typically recommend using a compactable, well-graded base material under surfaces with a durable top layer suited to the use and appearance you want; options differ by local geology. For driveways, prioritize a strong base and drainage; for walkways and landscaping, consider surface texture, maintenance needs, and how the material handles local weather.
