Crushed Stone (Limestone), 1/2" to 1.25"

Crushed stone in the 1/2" to 1.25" size range, made from durable limestone, is a versatile aggregate widely used in construction and landscaping. Produced by mechanically crushing limestone rock, this material features angular edges that interlock well, providing excellent stability and load-bearing capacity.

The 1/2" to 1.25" size range strikes a balance between compaction and drainage. Its angular shape ensures it locks together for a firm base, while the size allows water to pass through, reducing the risk of pooling. This makes it ideal for driveways, road bases, drainage solutions, and as a sub-base for patios and walkways. Limestone's natural hardness and resistance to weathering add to its longevity, though it may be less decorative than other stone types. Overall, this crushed limestone aggregate is a reliable choice for both residential and commercial projects requiring strength, stability, and effective drainage.
