Common Topsoil Projects in Keene and How Deep to Go

Working with Topsoil in Keene's Climate

Soils mapped around Keene are commonly very poorly drained. Where the ground is poorly drained, you may need extra base stone under the topsoil to keep water from pooling. Where the soil has been improved, it takes water in at a moderate rate.

About 85 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That many wet days means scheduling your delivery onto firm ground matters. The ground also freezes deeply and for a long time, so the window for spreading and grading runs from late spring through fall. About 159 days a year drop below 32F, which shortens that window.

Snowfall averages about 60 inches a year, and plowing can damage a loose topsoil surface. Plan to finish grading before the first heavy snow, or protect the area with a temporary cover.

How Much Topsoil Your Keene Job Needs

Figuring out the right tonnage comes down to square footage and depth. One ton of topsoil typically covers about 100 square feet at 2 inches deep. Use our material calculators to get a precise number for your project dimensions.
