Blue Stone

Description

Build solid bases and clean, durable surfaces with Blue Stone that compacts tight and stays put. Choose the size that fits your job: 3/4 in for firm base layers under pavers and slabs, or 1-1/2 in for deeper builds and drainage. Plan coverage at about 100 sq ft when spread 2 in deep to estimate material quickly.

Key Features

• Compacts tight: Angular pieces lock together to reduce shifting and rutting.
• Drains effectively: Open voids help move water away from the base.
• Clean, pro look: Blue-gray tone delivers a neat, uniform finish.
• Work faster: Consistent gradation spreads and compacts efficiently.
• Versatile use: Fit base layers, topping stone, and drainage trenches.

Applications

Use it under patios, walkways, and concrete slabs for stable support. Top rural driveways or parking areas where you want traction and easy upkeep. Rely on the larger size for French drains, swales, and soft subgrade stabilization.

Specifications

• Material: Natural crushed stone aggregate
• Sizes: 3/4 in and 1-1/2 in
• Texture/Finish: Angular, rough texture for mechanical interlock
• Color: Blue-gray; natural variation expected
• Coverage: About 100 sq ft at 2 in depth (approximate)

Prepare a firm subgrade, add geotextile where needed, and place in 2 in lifts. Compact each lift with a plate compactor for best density and long-term performance.
