Base Materials

This material is an angular, washed limestone that is free draining and deters soil migration. It is an alternative to screenings as a base material that does not need compaction; however it must be used in an enclosed space.

Compacts very well, but can be corrosive to nearby plant life. It is used as a base material for laying interlocking stone, retaining walls and patio slabs. It compacts to 2/3 of its original depth.

This sand and gravel mix provides excellent drainage when used as a base material for installations exceeding 6". It compacts to 3/4 of it's original depth.
