Gravel in a 3/4" to 2.5" Size Range

Gravel in the 3/4" to 2.5" size range is a versatile aggregate commonly produced by crushing natural stone or rock. This material features a mix of medium to large stones, making it ideal for applications where stability and drainage are key considerations.

The larger size range allows for excellent water flow, reducing the risk of pooling and erosion, which is especially beneficial for drainage systems, French drains, and septic system installations. It is also frequently used as a base layer for driveways, roadways, and parking areas, providing a stable foundation that resists shifting and compaction. While its size makes it less suitable for decorative top layers or pathways where a smoother surface is desired, it excels in structural and drainage roles. This gravel is a reliable choice for both residential and commercial projects requiring robust support and effective water management.
