- Heavy rains in spring call for proper drain rock and #57 stone in trenches
- Clay soils benefit from a clean drainage layer under patios and driveways
- Urban growth around Joliet, Bolingbrook, and Plainfield increases demand for ready aggregates and timely deliveries

Installation Tips for Will County Properties
Driveways
Use a layered approach: road base or crusher run compacted first, followed by a 3/4 inch crushed stone wearing layer. This approach resists frost heave and rutting.
Drainage
For effective drainage in our clay rich soils, place a layer of #57 stone or drain rock in trenches and surround perforated pipes with clean stone to maintain flow.
Landscaping
Choose river rock for low maintenance beds and decomposed granite for paths that require tight compaction and natural appearance.

Local Soil, Climate, and Geological Notes for Will County
Will County lies within a glacial plain with areas of clay, silt, and glacial till. These soils are prone to poor drainage and frost heave without proper aggregate layers. Summers are warm and humid while winters bring freeze thaw cycles that test surface durability. Choosing aggregates engineered for compaction and drainage is crucial for long term performance in this region.
