For driveways in West Georgia, crushed stone (3/4" crushed stone or crusher-run) is commonly recommended because it compacts well and sheds water. Pea gravel or river rock can work for pathways or decorative driveways but may shift more in heavy rain or on clay soils. Consider a compacted crushed stone base with a decorative top layer if you want both durability and appearance.

A quick rule of thumb: tons = (square feet x depth in inches) / 100. For example, a 1,000 sq ft driveway at 2" depth needs about 20 tons. This is an approximation and actual needs change with gravel type and compaction; use our material calculator or contact us for a precise estimate.

Yes. Many local contractors recommend a well-graded crushed stone base (often called ABC or crusher-run) compacted to 4-6 inches for standard residential driveways, and 6 inches or more for heavier vehicles. They also often advise installing geotextile fabric under the base to reduce mixing with clay and improve drainage. Proper edge restraint and good surface slope are also important to prevent spreading and rutting.

Heavy summer storms can cause rutting, washouts, and migration of fines on gravel driveways, especially where the soil is clayey and drainage is poor. To reduce problems, maintain a crown or slope for runoff, install adequate drainage (culverts or French drains), and periodically regrade and add fresh gravel or fines. Regular maintenance like raking, filling low spots, and compacting after repairs will keep the surface stable.

Gravel typically has much lower upfront cost than asphalt or concrete but requires more frequent maintenance, such as periodic regrading and topping up every few years. Asphalt and concrete cost more to install but usually need less routine upkeep; however, they can be more expensive to repair. Consider driveway use, budget, local freeze/thaw conditions, and long-term maintenance willingness when choosing; get local contractor quotes for accurate cost comparisons.

Possibly. Some neighborhoods and HOAs have rules about driveway materials, colors, edging, and dust control, and the City of Byron may have local ordinances affecting driveway alterations or stormwater. Before installation, check your HOA covenants and contact Byron city planning or public works to confirm any permit or drainage requirements. If in doubt, our team can help point you toward local resources.

Yes. Because deliveries are by dump truck (typically tri-axle), measure gate widths, driveway turn radiuses, and overhead clearance and note any obstacles in your order notes.
