Clean Crushed Stone in a 1" Size Range

Clean crushed stone in a 1" size range is a versatile aggregate produced by mechanically crushing larger rocks into angular fragments, then thoroughly washing to remove fines and dust. The "clean" attribute ensures minimal debris, resulting in a product that is free-draining and less likely to compact over time.

The 1" size is ideal for applications where stability and drainage are priorities. Its angular shape allows the stones to lock together, providing a solid base for driveways, walkways, and patios, while the clean finish prevents clogging in drainage systems and French drains. This material is also commonly used as a base layer beneath concrete slabs, retaining walls, and pavers. The lack of fines means it is not suitable for areas requiring compaction, but it excels in situations where water needs to flow freely and a stable, non-muddy surface is desired.
