Screenings Stone

Screenings stone is a fine, crushed aggregate produced as a byproduct during the crushing of larger stones. Composed of small particles and stone dust, screenings offer a compactable, stable base material ideal for a variety of construction and landscaping projects.

The fine texture of screenings makes them especially effective for creating smooth, level surfaces. This attribute allows for excellent compaction, reducing the risk of shifting or settling over time. Screenings are commonly used as a base layer beneath pavers, patios, and walkways, as well as for filling joints between stones. They are also suitable for use under concrete slabs and as a leveling agent for flagstone installations. While their compactability is a major advantage, screenings are not recommended for drainage applications, as their fine particles can impede water flow.
