Walkway Gravel in Kaysville's Climate

Kaysville gets about 26 inches of precipitation a year. That is enough to make washout a real concern for loose walkway gravel, especially on slopes. The ground here takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface, which means a deeper drainage layer earns its place.

About 62 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling your delivery onto firm ground is important to avoid rutting. The county also gets about 52 inches of snowfall a year, and plowing that snow can scrape loose gravel off the surface. Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift.

Kaysville sees roughly 121 freezing days a year. That many freeze-thaw cycles cause the ground to move, so a properly compacted base is necessary. The work window is limited, but planning ahead gets the job done.

Frequently Asked Questions About Walkway Gravel in Kaysville

Is Kaysville a wet enough area to worry about washout?

Yes. Kaysville receives about 26 inches of precipitation a year, which is enough to cause washout on loose gravel walkways if the base is not prepared correctly. A deeper drainage layer and proper slope will keep the gravel in place.

How many wet days a year should I plan a walkway gravel delivery around in Kaysville?

Plan for about 62 wet days a year, defined as days with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Schedule your delivery for a stretch of dry weather to avoid ruts from the truck and to give the gravel time to settle.

What is the difference between the sizes of walkway gravel you stock?

The sizes range from small 3/8-inch gravel, which is easy to walk on, up to 2-to-3-inch gravel, which is too large to walk on comfortably. Each size serves a different purpose from barefoot paths to decorative borders.

Do I need landscape fabric under it?

Landscape fabric is recommended under walkway gravel to suppress weeds. It also helps separate the gravel from the soil, which reduces the chance of the gravel sinking into the ground over time.
