Mid-Missouri | I would prefer something like clay mixture for the base but it may be hard to come by in that area. The topsoil should pack good and with a berm, drain well enough.
We have applied 3" base to several locations around the yard that was once yard without geotextile. I really like it, as the fine limestone mixes and ties the 3" rock together. It almost makes concrete. Hard tired forklifts even get along pretty good there. I don't understand the issue you have had, as well as others? What kind of mess did you have to deal with? |
