ROAD BASE
We deliver itRoad Base (Grade 8, Limestone)
Grade 8 limestone road base is a crushed aggregate blend specifically engineered for superior compaction and stability. Produced from high-quality limestone, this material is finely crushed and screened to create a dense, angular mix that locks together tightly when compacted. The Grade 8 designation refers to its well-graded particle size distribution, which typically includes a mix of fines and small stones for optimal binding.
