How Harper's Climate and Soil Affect Your Topsoil Project
Soils in the Harper area are in hydrologic group C, meaning they absorb rainwater slowly and shed a fair amount across the surface. This tendency makes a deeper drainage layer under topsoil a wise investment to prevent waterlogging.
With about 110 days a year below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, the ground freezes and thaws regularly. This freezing cycle can shift freshly placed topsoil, so timing your project during the warmer months reduces settling issues. The frost depth here is moderate, but the ground is workable for most of the spring-to-fall season. Most of this work runs spring to fall, and the ground is workable for most of that stretch.
Snowfall averages about 11 inches a year, which can damage a loose topsoil surface if you plow. Spreading seed or covering the soil before winter helps protect it.
Estimating How Much Topsoil You Need
The volume of topsoil you need depends on the area to be covered and the depth you plan to spread. A cubic yard covers about 100 square feet at 3 inches deep. Convert that to tons by using our material calculators for an exact figure.
