Calculate volume first: area (ft2) x depth (ft) / 27 = cubic yards, then multiply by weight per cubic yard (most gravels weigh about 1.2 to 1.6 tons per cubic yard) to get tons. For example, a 10 ft x 10 ft patio at 2 inches deep is about 0.62 cubic yards or roughly 1 ton of gravel; use our online material calculator for quick estimates.

Gravel is a practical choice in Lake Lorraine for drainage and low-maintenance surfaces, but you should plan for Florida's rainy weather and high water table. Use a proper base, geotextile fabric, edging, and adequate depth to reduce washout and rutting during heavy rain events.

Prepare by removing vegetation, grading for drainage, and installing geotextile fabric if needed. Place a compacted base course (4 to 6 inches for driveways), then add a 2 to 3 inch top layer of smaller gravel or crushed stone; finish with edging to keep material in place.

Gravel can shift or wash when exposed to concentrated runoff, tidal flows, or hurricanes, especially if not installed with proper base and edging. Reduce washout risk by installing slopes for drainage, retaining edges, larger base stones, and stabilizing fabric, and by choosing heavier stone sizes for exposed areas.
