Spillway Dirt Delivery in Gretna, LA

Spillway Dirt for Gretna projects

Spillway Dirt is a silt with some clay, packed in layers to fill holes and washouts in Gretna. It also brings up a driveway or pad under its base stone. Spillway Dirt is not screened and may hold small roots or debris, so it is not for a finished surface or a planting bed. Cap it with Premium Garden Soil. Keep the pile on your own lot in Gretna, not on the sidewalk or apron.

Spillway Dirt in Gretna: what to know

For raising a low spot in a Gretna yard, Spillway Dirt is the heavier fill: a silt with some clay, packed in layers to fill holes and washouts, to bring up a driveway or pad under its base stone, and to grade around a foundation so water runs away. It is not screened and may hold small roots or debris, so it is not for a finished surface or a planting bed; cap it with Premium Garden Soil. It is not structural fill under a slab or footing. Keep the pile on your own lot, not on the sidewalk or apron.

Right material for the job

Best for: raising low areas, rough grading, berms, filling holes and washouts, general fill.

Building under a slab, patio or driveway? Use Crushed Concrete as the base (#57 Limestone on top for a driveway). Spillway Dirt can go underneath to bring the grade up.

For engineered or structural fill, follow your engineer's spec. We're happy to help you choose.

Questions

Is the sidewalk or the driveway apron a good drop spot?

Better not. Gretna treats sidewalks, driveway aprons and curb cuts as public right of way, and work on them goes through the City's Public Works and Planning and Zoning. Ask for a spot on your own lot.

Is raw earth fill the same as spillway dirt?

Yes. Raw earth fill is another name for spillway dirt. It is also called embankment fill.
