Decomposed Granite - Madison Gold

Decomposed granite in the Madison Gold color is a naturally occurring material formed from the weathering and breakdown of solid granite rock. This aggregate features a warm, gold hue that adds a distinctive, decorative touch to landscaping and construction projects. The granite attribute ensures the material is durable, long-lasting, and resistant to weathering, making it suitable for both residential and commercial applications.

Madison Gold decomposed granite is prized for its compactability and natural appearance. Its fine texture allows for easy leveling and compaction, creating stable surfaces ideal for pathways, patios, garden trails, and driveways. The gold color enhances curb appeal and blends seamlessly with Southwestern and contemporary landscape designs. While decomposed granite offers excellent drainage and a natural look, it may require occasional replenishment in high-traffic areas due to its finer particles. Overall, it's a versatile, attractive choice for projects seeking both function and aesthetic value.
