River Rock (7/8″)
Applications & Uses
River Rock in a 7/8" Size Range
River rock in a 7/8" size range is a naturally rounded aggregate sourced from riverbeds and stream deposits. Its smooth, weathered appearance is the result of years of water erosion, making it both visually appealing and comfortable to handle. The 7/8" size offers a versatile balance-large enough to stay in place, yet small enough for easy spreading and coverage.
This size is ideal for a variety of residential and commercial applications, including decorative landscaping, garden beds, pathways, and around water features. It is also commonly used for drainage solutions, as the rounded stones allow water to flow freely while minimizing soil erosion. The main advantages of 7/8" river rock are its low maintenance, excellent drainage properties, and attractive, natural look. However, its smooth surface makes it less suitable for areas requiring compaction or high traction, such as driveways or walkways with heavy foot traffic.
