Pea Gravel in a 3/8" to 1/2" Size Range

Pea gravel in a 3/8" to 1/2" size range is a naturally rounded aggregate known for its smooth texture and attractive appearance. Produced by screening and washing river rock or crushed stone, this material features small, consistently sized pebbles that are comfortable underfoot and visually appealing.

The 3/8" to 1/2" size strikes a balance between stability and drainage, making it ideal for a variety of residential and commercial applications. It is commonly used for pathways, patios, playgrounds, and decorative landscaping, as well as for drainage beds and pipe bedding. The rounded shape makes it easy to spread and walk on, but it does not compact tightly, which enhances drainage but may limit its use as a base material for heavy structures. Overall, pea gravel in this size range offers versatility, low maintenance, and a clean, finished look for outdoor projects.
