Decorative Aggregate, 3" Minus, Gray

Decorative aggregate in a 3" minus size range is a versatile gray stone blend ideal for landscaping and construction projects that require both visual appeal and functional performance. "3" minus" means the material includes stones up to 3 inches in diameter, along with smaller pieces and fines, resulting from the crushing process.

The broad size range provides excellent compaction and stability, making it suitable for use as a base layer for driveways, walkways, and patios, as well as for erosion control and large-scale ground cover in commercial or residential landscapes. The gray color offers a neutral, modern look that complements a variety of design styles. While the larger pieces enhance drainage and reduce washout, the presence of fines helps lock the material in place. However, the rough texture and size may not be ideal for barefoot areas or surfaces requiring a smooth finish. Overall, this aggregate is valued for its durability, low maintenance, and decorative appeal.
