Aggregate Base Course (#200 To 3/4″, Washed)
Applications & Uses
Washed Aggregate Base Course (#200 to 3/4" Size Range)
Washed Aggregate Base Course in the #200 to 3/4" size range is a high-quality construction material composed of crushed stone and fine particles that have been thoroughly washed to remove dust, clay, and other impurities. The washing process ensures a cleaner, more consistent product, which is especially important for applications where drainage and compaction are critical.
The broad size range-from fine particles (#200 sieve) up to 3/4"-provides excellent compaction and load-bearing properties, making this material ideal for use as a stable base layer beneath roads, driveways, parking lots, and concrete slabs. The washed attribute reduces the risk of unwanted settling and improves drainage, helping to prevent water retention and frost heave. While the lack of fines can make it slightly less cohesive than unwashed base courses, the improved cleanliness and drainage make it a preferred choice for both residential and commercial projects where performance and longevity are priorities.
