Mason Sand for Patios in Tolley, ND

North Dakota Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Tolley, ND, and the working season sets the schedule. Base, driveway and paver work runs from the end of the spring thaw into late fall.

Frozen ground stops compaction through the winter, and spring load restrictions slow hauling while the frost comes out. Class 5 is the base material most Tolley work starts from.

Ground and Conditions in Tolley

Tolley sits on the Souris Basin and Lake Souris plain, the old bed of glacial Lake Souris. That ground runs from clay and silt near the middle to wave-washed till around the rim.

A thin base on clay shows its failure fast. The surface breaks up and ruts hold water instead of shedding it.

Wind-blown delta sand covers much of the southern half of the old lake plain. On sandy ground a base course scours and blows out at the edges.

Snowmelt comes down from the north onto flat, slow-draining lake plain. Low ground in the sand country takes water first, so a pad that looks dry in August can sit wet in April.

Sheet wash off bare clay, wind erosion and bank scour along the valleys all move ground that has nothing holding it. A proper base and a drainage layer are what keep a pad and a paver field where you built them.

Materials for Tolley Projects

Bedding under pavers and flatwork is where a patio build is won. The bedding course has to compact evenly and stay put, or the surface rocks and settles within a season.

Stone screenings, also called crusher fines, are the standard bedding for pavers and flagstone. They pack into a firm walking surface and fill the joints as you work.

Washed sand, also called concrete sand, beds and levels flatwork and sand under slabs. It gives a consistent, drainable layer that will not hold water under the pour.

Mason sand, also called masonry sand, goes into block and brick work and paver joints. It is fine, clean and consistent, which suits tight joints and sandboxes.

It is the compacted base under drives, parking pads and shop floors.

Class 13, also called Class 13 gravel, surfaces an approach, lane or gravel drive. It is binding and blade-friendly where you want a wearing course rather than a full base.
