Materials for Salt Lake City Projects

Decorative rock carries a lot of the work here, and it starts with the beds. Wasatch Cobble is the rounded landscape cobble for beds, borders, park strips and mow strips.

Utah yards often name a cobble after the pit or valley it comes from.

Dry creek beds are the other half of that work. Large River Rock, sold as 4 to 6 inch cobble, holds a dry creek bed, a swale or a slope where flash runoff would move a smaller stone.

Set it over a bed of Crusher Fines and the rounded stone stays put.

Crusher fines, also called screenings or chat, compact into a walkable surface for paths and trails. They also bed pavers and flagstone.

A crusher fines path is a standard Intermountain West detail and holds up in dry ground better than loose stone.

For a drive, a parking pad or a shed base, start with Road Base. Utah calls this untreated base course, or UTBC, and sizes it by top size, 3/4 inch minus or 1 1/2 inch minus.

Where water has to move, order clean stone. Drain Rock, also called washed rock, goes in French drains, footing drains, window wells and downspout runs.

3/4" Crushed Stone handles drainage beds, trench backfill and construction entrances.

For ground cover and planting, Top Soil and Shredded Mulch finish the job. Utah ground averages about pH 8 and runs low in organic matter, so imported screened topsoil is the usual start for a lawn or a bed.

Ground and Conditions in Salt Lake City

Across the Wasatch Front and the Bonneville benches, Lake Bonneville sorted these valleys. Sand and gravel sit in the benches and in the deltas at the canyon mouths.

Finer silt and clay lie out on the valley floor.

That split decides how a base performs. Bench gravel drains fast, so a drive there sheds water and stays firm.

Valley-floor silt and clay hold water, and shallow groundwater sits close to the surface in the low ground.

New lots are commonly stripped to clay subsoil before anything is built. An under-built base on that clay moves under a loaded truck.

Untreated base course placed over a stable subgrade is what keeps a drive, a pad or a paver field where you put it.

Soils here are alkaline and low in organic matter. That is why imported topsoil and a compost blend do the work that native ground cannot.

Timing matters as much as material. Base, driveway and paver work runs from early spring into late autumn.

Frozen ground stops compaction in midwinter, and July and August are dry enough that a base needs added water to compact properly.

Frost depth in Salt Lake City is 30 inches, and each jurisdiction sets its own figure. Confirm it with the local building official before you plan flatwork.
