Decorative Aggregate - Granite, 1.5" Size

Decorative aggregate in a 1.5" granite variety is a premium construction material prized for its durability, natural beauty, and versatility. Sourced from high-quality granite, this aggregate is mechanically crushed to achieve a consistent 1.5-inch size, resulting in angular stones that interlock well while providing a striking visual appeal.

The 1.5" size is ideal for projects where both aesthetics and function are important. Its larger profile makes it excellent for landscape beds, garden borders, and around trees, where it helps suppress weeds and retain soil moisture. The angular granite pieces also provide superior drainage, making them suitable for French drains, erosion control, and as a base layer for walkways or patios. While the size and hardness of granite make it less suitable for compacted surfaces like driveways, it excels in decorative and drainage applications. The natural resistance to weathering ensures long-lasting color and minimal maintenance, making it a popular choice for both residential and commercial landscaping projects.
