Order Gravel, Stone and Soil in Lee, NH

Snowmelt and heavy rain scour stream banks across this part of Strafford County. Stone stops the damage. New Hampshire Rock Supply sells gravel and aggregate delivery in Lee, NH, from crushed gravel to decorative rock, and drops it at your site.

Ground here is stony glacial till on the hills, with sandy outwash in the valleys. That mix drains fast in one spot and stalls in the next. Pick the material for the ground you actually have.

Materials for Lee Projects

Beds, borders and dry creek beds carry most of the landscape work here. Start with the rock that holds a bank or lines a planting bed.

Large River Rock builds dry creek beds and heavy borders. It handles erosion work that smaller stone will not hold. River Rock covers decorative beds and lighter borders, and reads clean against mulch.

Edge the beds with RipRap where a culvert outlet or slope needs armoring against spring runoff. Set the planting base under it with Top Soil, screened so it spreads without picking out rocks.

Between the beds, keep the walking paths firm. Pea Stone lays a walkable surface for paths and play areas, and drains well underfoot.

Every drive, drain and patio in Lee starts the same way, on a compacted base of crushed gravel. The local name is crushed gravel, and it is the standard base material in New Hampshire. Under flatwork, most crews bed pavers and flagstone on stone dust, also called screenings.

Ground and Conditions in Lee

Start from the soil, because it decides your base depth. Sandy valley outwash drains fast and needs less stone. Dense till with a hardpan layer drains slowly, so water sits and an under-built base pumps and fails.

On till, dig deeper and compact in lifts. On outwash, keep the drainage layer honest and let it do the work.

Mud season is the real test. Thawed soil holds water above ground that is still frozen, so nothing compacts. Base, driveway and paver work runs from the end of mud season into late fall. Frozen ground stops compaction through the winter.

Winters bring repeated freeze-thaw and frost heaves in gravel drives each spring. Frost depth runs about 4 feet in most towns, and the town building official sets footing depth. That is the number to build your base depth around.
