Gravel (1/4″, Limestone)
Applications & Uses
1/4" Limestone Gravel
1/4" limestone gravel is a finely crushed aggregate produced from natural limestone rock. This small, angular material is created by mechanically crushing larger limestone pieces, resulting in a consistent particle size that is ideal for a variety of construction and landscaping applications.
The 1/4" size offers excellent compaction properties, making it a popular choice for creating stable bases beneath pavers, patios, and walkways. Its fine texture also makes it suitable for use as a top dressing for driveways or as a bedding layer for pipes and underground utilities. Limestone's natural composition provides good drainage while still locking together tightly, reducing shifting and settling over time. Additionally, limestone is less dusty than some other aggregates, making it easier to work with and cleaner for finished surfaces. This material is valued for its versatility, durability, and ease of installation in both residential and commercial projects.
