ROAD BASE
We deliver itRoad Base (4″ To 6″)
Road base in a 4” to 6” size range is a coarse aggregate blend commonly used as a foundational layer in heavy-duty construction projects. This material typically consists of crushed stone, gravel, and fines, engineered to provide a stable, load-bearing surface. The large particle size ensures excellent structural support and allows for effective compaction, making it ideal for projects requiring a robust sub-base.
