For xeriscaping in hot, dry Arizona, decomposed granite (DG), crushed granite, and angular crushed rock are popular because they compact well and resist wind erosion. Lighter-colored gravels reflect heat and keep surfaces cooler, while pea gravel adds a decorative look but may require edging to stay in place. Choose a fines-stabilized DG or a crushed product if you want a firmer walking surface that requires less upkeep.

Driveways usually need 3 to 6 inches of surface gravel over a 4 to 8 inch compacted base of larger rock; patios and walkways typically use 1 to 3 inches of surface material over a compacted base. Use 1.4 tons per cubic yard as a practical conversion: first compute cubic yards (length ft x width ft x depth ft / 27), then multiply by 1.4 to get tons. Example: a 12 ft x 50 ft driveway at 3 inches deep is about 5.6 cubic yards, or ~7.8 tons.

Gravel holds up well in hot weather, but high-traffic areas will thin and rut over time; expect to regrade or add material every 1 to 3 years for busy driveways, and every 2 to 5 years for lower-traffic areas. Regular maintenance includes occasional raking, addressing washouts after monsoon storms, topping up low spots, and keeping proper drainage in place. Proper base preparation and compaction at installation will reduce maintenance frequency.

For monsoon drainage and erosion control, angular crushed rock or crushed stone is generally best because it creates stable channels and sheds water while allowing good infiltration. Decomposed granite compacts well and can be effective on slopes if stabilized, but loose DG can wash or rut in heavy runoff. Pea gravel drains but is easily displaced by high-velocity flows, so it needs solid edging and proper grading to avoid washouts.

Common stabilization options include geogrid or gravel grid systems to lock stone in place, resin-bound or resin-stabilized gravel, and thorough compaction over a prepared base. Grid materials often cost in the low single digits per square foot for materials, with installed systems commonly running roughly $3 to $8 per square foot depending on product and labor; resin-bound installations are pricier, often $8 to $20+ per square foot installed. For ADA-compliant walkways you need a firm, stable, and slip-resistant finish; a stabilized gravel system or compacted DG installed to ADA slopes and firmness standards can meet requirements when done correctly, so get a contractor quote for compliance details.

Regulations and HOA rules vary across Arizona and may restrict rock color, size, coverage, or require specific landscaping permits for front yards and driveway modifications. Before ordering, check your city planning office and your HOA's design or landscaping rules to confirm allowed materials and any permit requirements. If you’re unsure, Hello Gravel’s team can help you factor potential restrictions into your material selection and project planning.

Gravel is usually the lowest-cost material up front and is quick to install, but it needs more periodic maintenance and topping. Crushed concrete performs similarly to gravel in cost and drainage and has the environmental benefit of recycled material; pavers are the most expensive to install but give the most durable, low-maintenance surface and better curb appeal. Typical installed cost ranges in our region are roughly $1.50 to $4 per sq ft for gravel, $2 to $5 per sq ft for crushed concrete, and $10 to $25+ per sq ft for pavers, but local site prep and access can change those numbers.

Material plus delivery for basic gravel projects often makes gravel one of the most affordable options; a small driveway or modest patio project might cost from several hundred to a few thousand dollars, while larger driveways commonly fall in the low thousands depending on depth, base work, and access. Labor for grading, base preparation, compaction, and edging can add significantly, so package quotes that include materials, delivery, and installation are the best way to know total cost. Use our site to get material and delivery quotes, and ask us for local installer referrals for full-install pricing.
