Product Specifications and Uses
Product Applications
Whether for driveways, pathways, patios, utility landscape areas or to surround trees, crushed stone or decomposed granite can be a versatile material that lesson weed growth, maintain even soil moisture, and makes an outdoor space more appealing. These two are not the same material, though. Decomposed granite has a natural coarse look to it, while crushed stone products tend to be flatter and have a higher amount of fine material. Crushed stone products, granite, sandstone, limestone, and others offer a greater array of natural colors to work with than most true decomposed granite materials.

Decomposed Granite and Crushed Stone Fines are not the same materials. Decomposed granite has a natural coarse look to it with irregular round quartz pebbles. Crushed stone products tend to be flatter and have a higher amount of fine material. Crushed stone products, granite, sandstone, limestone, and others offer a greater array of natural colors to work with than most true decomposed granite materials.

The square foot coverage per ton of gravel will vary slightly with the surface and designs of the project, waste, etc. will affect area coverage. The information is based on average ton and cubic yard amounts. This decorative building stone has naturally occurring colors and shade variations. These are what give this stone the natural beauty and uniqueness that causes its appeal. Color tone change can sometimes occur with aging or maintenance practices of the location it is installed therefore exact matching of existing stone may not always occur. During processing or transportation, dust will adhere to the rocks and change its appearance on arrival but we guarantee all stones to be true to the specific brand name, type, and size ordered, or a complete exchange including transportation costs will be made.

After installation is completed the rock should be rinsed off to show its natural beauty and character.
