On West Tennessee clay, crushed stone or crushed limestone (examples: #57 or 3/4" crushed stone) and dense-graded 'crusher run' perform best because they lock together and compact well. Pea gravel and round river rock are more likely to shift and rut on clay unless you have a strong base and edging, so they are better for decorative paths than main driveways. Adding a geotextile fabric and a compacted base will greatly improve stability in clay soils.

Use this quick guide: a single-car driveway (10 ft x 50 ft) needs roughly 4.3 tons at 2" depth, 6.5 tons at 3", and 8.6 tons at 4". A double-car driveway (20 ft x 50 ft) needs about 8.6 tons at 2", 13.0 tons at 3", and 17.3 tons at 4". Hello Gravel's material calculator can compute exact amounts for different widths, lengths, and depths.

Graysville gets periodic heavy rain which can wash fines and cause ruts if the driveway lacks proper grade and drainage. Prep drainage when you have any slope toward the driveway, standing water issues, or sections that hold water after storms; typical measures include crowning the driveway, adding side swales, and installing culverts or French drains where runoff concentrates. Good prep before installing gravel saves significant maintenance later.

Pea gravel is often less expensive by the ton and works well for low-traffic paths and decorative areas, but it requires more frequent replenishing and edging. Crushed rock and crushed limestone compact better and last longer for driveways and heavy-use paths, though they can cost more up front; they also reduce maintenance needs. Remember to factor in delivery, compaction or labor costs, and any base or drainage prep when comparing total project cost.

A well-built gravel driveway in the Graysville climate can last 5 to 15 years before needing significant replenishing, with routine maintenance like grading, adding 1" of gravel every few years, and repairing washouts. Heavy rain can create ruts and wash fines; regular grading after storms and keeping vegetation trimmed will prolong life. Thicker initial installs and good drainage reduce long-term maintenance needs.

Yes, many Graysville homeowners use geotextile fabric under gravel, especially where the native soil is clay or the area gets wet often. Fabric helps separate the subgrade from the aggregate, reduces mixing and rutting, and improves drainage and longevity; the added upfront cost is often worth it for driveways or high-traffic pads. For larger or heavier-load areas, combining fabric with a compacted base layer is recommended.

Gravel is usually the cheapest upfront option and is well suited to rural Graysville properties where flexibility and drainage are priorities, but it requires more ongoing maintenance than asphalt or concrete. Asphalt and concrete have higher installation costs but typically need less frequent upkeep and provide a smoother surface for heavy or frequent vehicle use. Choose based on budget, desired maintenance level, and how much traffic the driveway will see.

Common projects in Graysville include residential driveways, parking pads, pathways, drainage trenches, and erosion control. Budget planning should start with calculating tonnage (Hello Gravel's calculator helps) and adding delivery fees, possible compaction labor, and drainage prep; small projects often need at least the 3-ton minimum.
